Who Needs Staging?

December 16, 2008

Today as I was browsing the MLS, I couldn’t help but notice a 3 bedroom, 3 bath condo in one of my favorite buildings went into contract.  999 Green sits high atop Russian Hill (maybe that’s why they call it “The Summit” – hehe) and has amazing views in all directions.  The 315 foot tall structure was built in 1965, has 104 units on 32 floors, and was one of the earliest modern high rises to be built on Russian Hill.

Unit 2302 has been on the market for 76 days at $2,195,000 and went into contract this morning.  The unit caught our eye because it registered about a 9.5 on our real estate tachometer (aka the ‘tacky meter’).  Apparently someone who could see past the clutter snatched up this great unit and once the owner’s stuff is out, will enjoy incredible views of the city skyline, a Bay that changes colors throughout the day, and sunrises emerging from California’s mountains.  Good for them, and hats off for the ability to look through the decor.
