SF & Bay Views in the Million Dollar Range!!
Today’s most popular home is located in Berkeley and looks like a catcher. Priced at $1,080,000 with over 3,000 square feet, nice views and a modern look, this home looks like a great deal at first. The views alone are worth it. Add the house and a million eighty is an awesome price. On the market for over 2 months, the seller is motivated and the listing agent is great to work with (based on my past experience with her of course).
The only downer is Berkeley charges a $15 dollar city transfer tax per every thousand a house sells for. It is split 50/50 with the seller, but that still leaves you with a $8,100 bill. And no this isn’t your property tax bill. This is in addition to it.
