I made this one-minute “before & after” video for a client (Housing Group Fund) to help show one of their recent first-time home buyer projects in Sacramento. I appraised this property and I have permission to post the information here. This is a block construction house (cinder block) near the Fruitridge area that was purchased recently as a bank-owned fixer and then rehabbed extensively throughout. One of the features I really like about this remodel is that there is now sheetrock and texture on the interior walls so the house does not have a typical “block” feel to it. If you are reading in RSS, you can view the video directly here.
It’s amazing to see the difference from beginning to end. What do you think?
“Fannie Mae has put lenders on official notice that they can only use appraisers who are knowledgeable about the area in which they are being asked to value property, and who have the ability to access records on recent sales in those markets.”
What’s going on in the Sacramento real estate market in the South Oak Park area? I plotted some sales in the 95820 zip code and wanted to share the following. The trend graphs below are based on recorded single family residential sales in MLS for the following boundaries: 12th Avenue to the north, Highway 99 to the west, MLK Jr Blvd to the east, and Fruitridge Road to the south.
