Hi.

Welcome to the MASH where we gossip about current real estate listings.

Enjoy!

PRICE INCREASE - 88 Tranmer Avenue - CHAPLIN ESTATES

PRICE INCREASE - 88 Tranmer Avenue - CHAPLIN ESTATES

It was a 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom house on a 50 x 129.91 foot lot that looked traditional on the outside but had been renovated on the inside...a few decades ago.

The living room ceiling went up 2 storeys...

And the kitchen was very dated...

With what looked like Spanish archways.

It needed updating.

The asking price was $1,450,000.  It

sold for $1,450,000.

Then

in September 2015, it was back on the market.  It had a full renovation and was now a 5+1 bedroom, 6 bathroom house.  And I wasn't crazy about the reno.  Or maybe it was just the staging furniture that was distracting me...

Like this couch...

Because when I look at the photos again, it's not a bad flip.  And with different furniture, it could look pretty good (though there is still a lot of crown moulding and panelling).

It was initially listed in May 2012 for $3,749,000 with a price drop in July to $3,550,000.

When I posted it, the price was $3,285,000.  I thought it would need another drop.

In October, the price was dropped to $3,120,000.  It didn't sell.  In January, it was back on the market at the same price.

It still hasn't sold and it came back on the market the other day.  

The new price is $3,250,000.

They need to change the furniture.  Or at least get rid of that couch.
