Why hasn't this home in Ivanhoe sold?

                                      2516 IVAN HILL TER , LOS ANGELES ,CA   90039

  Nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac in the Silver Lake hills, this 4 bedroom, 1.75 bath, 2,400 sq ft, custom-built 1928 American Foursquare-style home has views from every room and sits on an extra-large 9,210 sq lot with mature trees, drought-tolerant landscaping and a grassy front yard. Architectural details abound with the home's two vintage stained glass windows, restored white oak floors, Craftsman-style wood balusters and rail, and original mullioned picture windows. First floor has ceiling heights over 10' and features open plan dining room/kitchen leading to gated outdoor patio, living room lined with bank of picture windows, and ¾ bath updated in 2011. Second floor has four generous-sized bedrooms with built-in California closets and full bath w/vintage tiling. Third floor attic has a finished 510 sq ft bonus room. Located in the Ivanhoe school district, this home has a two-car garage, numerous upgrades and is a short distance from the Reservoir, Trader Joe's and many restaurants. 

With all the above features one would have thought this property would be long gone right? Well, its apparently not that simple. It did go into escrow but quickly came back on the market, Buyers may have had a change of heart. I'm told that it did inspect well with some minor issues? So with so little inventory in Ivanhoe why then hasn't someone submitted an offer? Or maybe someone has and the Seller's haven't been receptive to the offers?

Its been on the market now 83 days and there's not been any sort of price reduction? Are the Sellers motivated to sell? Are they waiting to get there desired price? Time isn't on their side and as days go by is not likely that they will. As Buyer this can bode well, you can bring them offer that says "Hey I'm the only one at the table" and see how serious they are? You have nothing to loose and if the home works for you and you can negotiate a price that makes sense and possibly acquire this large home in the Ivanhoe School District then it would be worth pursuing.

If you would like to see the home please contact me at dansmyrealtor@gmail.com or call 323-839-3936. Or if you would like info on homes in Ivanhoe before they come on the market, please reach out and let's talk about your needs and how I can help you.

NEW REMODEL IN THE IVANHOE SCHOOL DISTRICT OF SILVER LAKE!

3007 ANGUS ST , LOS ANGELES ,CA 90039 LP: $1,289,000


Thoughtfully renovated, private, two story ultra modern home in the hills of Silver Lake. The home has gorgeous walls of glass that bring the outdoors in and evoke an ultimate sense of calm with beautiful views of the Observatory and the hills of Griffith Park. Enter into a breath taking open living room w/ fireplace, dining room and gourmet kitchen with an island to die for. Kitchen has all stainless appliances, Custom bamboo cabinets, and recycled counter tops. Both levels have impressive smoked white oak floors. The Beautiful master suite has a separate sitting area, walk-in closet and breath taking master bath. Equipped with "Smart House" technology - video, sound, lighting, and security all from a Smart phone. The outdoor fire pit in the courtyard is perfect for the chilly nights in the hills. Bonus studio/sound room with separate entry. And not to forget the great school district - Ivanhoe.

I recall this home when it was on the market last year, actually it had been on the market for a long time! Overpriced and the Sellers were slow to make price adjustments. Once the price came down it got allot of interest and finally sold to an Investor for $705,000. And now believe me its not the same property! The home was a definite fixer with allot of deferred maintenance and frankly it wasn't very appealing nor did it have a greatest floor plan. When I viewed this Tuesday I was excited by what they'd done and really like the redo, it's got an open floor plan with good indoor out space and they've created 2 wonderful decks that look out onto a large yard. There's room to build a pool and still enough outdoor space. Direct access from the garage and sound system throughout the house.
The location is ideal and you can walk to many places of interest and it's in Ivanhoe! There's going to be allot of interest so if you would like to see the home please contact me at dansmyrealtor@gmail.com or call 323-839-3936. If you would like info on homes in Ivanhoe before they come on the market, please reach out and let's talk about your needs and how I can help you.

Thanks,
