Tuesday Snippets: Offers, Plaudits and Cuts

- The Bernard Maybeck designed home at 2980 Linden Street in Berkeley has been taken off the market and word on the street is that it had as many as eight offers — and not one of them is from me. It listed for $1,095,000.
- At least one visitor to 2830 Garber Street – listed at $1,150,000 and also in Berkeley — was enchanted. As they reported to SocketSite: ”This home would probably cost double this price in Noe or Forest Hill, if you could even find it.”
- $100,000 has been knocked off the 4,510 sq ft home at 29 Domingo Avenue in Berkeley’s Claremont neighborhood (above) after 33 days on the market. It is down from $1,695,000 to $1,595,000.
- Sign of the times: at a rough count there are currently 100 homes in Oakland priced under $100,000.

I’ve been watching this Domingo listing from afar, haven’t been able to visit. Any idea why it’s not selling? And why its price seems to be below comps for the area? (ie: what’s wrong with this property?)
PS – love your column
