Now An Eight, Two Nines And A Sexy Six For 6521 California

As we wrote this past December:

Purchased for $562,000 in April 2004 but then “completely renovated [with] extensive high quality and designer touches throughout this charming house,” 6521 California returned to the market just three months later asking $888,000. It closed escrow in August 2004 with an MLS reported sale price of $938,888.

According to public records the buyers of the house in 2004 financed the purchase with two variable rate loans totaling $938,850. And according to its latest listing, the “Sea Cliff” house is now bank owned and asking $799,900 (but subject to tenant rights).

Apparently $38 isn’t enough skin to keep a buyer in the game.

Withdrawn from the market in January without a sale, 6521 California is back on the MLS with an official one day on the market and asking $689,900 (26 percent under its 2004 comp setting sale price).
