Sold--1541 Paru Street, Alameda, CA
This week's recent sales on SFGate showed a small bungalow I hadn't noticed when it was on the market, 1541 Paru Street. The specs are, ahem, cozy:
What's also encouraging is that it was once listed for $429,000, when it was Alameda Sun's Home of the Week. This means someone lowballed and the seller (get this) accepted the 17%-off bid instead of chasing the market down for months. We need more sellers like that.
The sale history doesn't reveal anything scary, so one hopes everyone's reasonably happy with the transaction.
