1447 Wallace Ave, Angelino Heights

How did 1447 Wallace Avenue close $155,000 over asking?

In this case, our strategic transformation wasn’t a full overhaul of the home. Sometimes, it’s about knowing exactly where to spend the effort.

We focused on the details: butcher block counters to warm up the kitchen, freshly painted cabinets, a full repaint on the ADU, and a handful of fixes that made a real difference (the little things that buyers notice).

Then we layered in staging that made it all feel cohesive, not overdone.

The payoff? A home that showed honestly and closed $155,000 over asking.

Proof that smart strategy delivers optimal results..

• Updated door hardware throughout

Lower Level
