Before & After: 678 Blackberry Lane, San Rafael

Looking to sell the property they inherited from their aunt in this challenging sellers’ market, the sellers of 678 Blackberry brought in Barr Haney and the Own Marin team to strategically approach the market and maximize the sales price of their home in Lucas Valley. Through Own Marin’s custom design program, Barr consulted with his clients regarding a $50k+- investment in painting, staging, landscaping, hardware and light fixtures to transform their property into a bright, stylish home that would inspire today’s buyers. Five offers later, 678 Blackberry sold for 16% over asking and rewarded Barr’s clients with an additional $315,000 (6X+) return on their investment.
