SOLD: 482 Radcliffe Dr, Santa Clara — $2,650,000
This one was about doing the hard work before the market got to weigh in.
When we first met the sellers of 482 Radcliffe Dr, they had just received a notice from the city that their home was no longer compliant due to unpermitted work done decades ago. What followed was a 5 months-long partnership — working hand-in-hand with both the city and our sellers to bring the home back to code.
From there, the real transformation began. After 30+ years without updates, we guided a focused $50,000 refresh that included wide plank laminate flooring, updated lighting, reglazed bathroom tile, freshly painted kitchen cabinets, and front-to-back landscaping. We were intentional with every dollar — making smart updates that elevated the home while preserving the sellers’ bottom line.
The result? Over 100 groups through the open house weekend, 6 competitive offers, and a final sale price of $2,650,000 — more than $400,000 over asking. Early investor offers were circling at $2.2M, but our strategic prep and aggressive marketing helped us far surpass that.
