Just Sold 2878 Velasco Mesa Del Mar
Costa Mesa real estate sold- 2878 VelascoGreat deal on this home because the majority of the home was in really great condition on Velasco Lane. There was gorgeous hardwood flooring, all new dual pane windows with beveled glass, a trey ceiling in the kitchen, an all new kitchen with kitchen cabinets and new appliances, a completely finished garage, I could go on and on!

The house had a nice pool as well as plenty of backyard area for play too. This was a super deal in Costa Mesa real estate. I am quite surprised that the home was on the market as long as it was- it was on for almost 2 months before my client made their offer. The bathrooms needed a little TLC, but they were clean and very livable.

Why so long on the market? Not sure- part of the issue was that the bank who held the property were very restrictive in their contracts and their approach…. They would not allow inspections to be a contingent item. HUH? Right, you heard me. No appraisal or inspection contingencies make for a nervous transaction. I’ve written posts about this before; there is definitely a “right” approach with banks and short sales. This one was competitive too, we were competing with other offers.
No problem, there is always a way!! We quickly did inspections (thank you guys!!) within a few hours of me calling a couple of good inspectors. That way when we negotiated the contract we already knew what our bottom line would be.
Granted, I would not tell a first time buyer this is a good way to buy a first home. It takes a lot of faith to jump in with both feet on one like this. But with a little faith, my client was rewarded. The house turned out to be in excellent condition, and as I mentioned only needed minor TLC in spots.
