Success in Newton: How Erik Gould Sold a Charming Cape Cod Home in Just 3 Weeks!

We’re excited to share a remarkable success story from Focus Real Estate! Just three weeks after hitting the market, our listing agent, Erik Gould, achieved a fantastic outcome for our clients, selling their charming Cape Cod-style home at 29 Nod Hill in Newton, MA. 🏡✨

Here's the story...How it began...


When the sellers approached Erik, they were looking to sell their beloved home this summer to take advantage of the IRS Capital Gains Tax Exemption. However, there was a catch: the property had been rented out for nearly three years, which presented challenges for maximizing their exemption.

The Vision

With a strong desire to navigate this situation, Erik worked closely with the sellers to understand their needs. They decided to make minimal improvements to make the property appealing to potential buyers while also ensuring they could attract end-users rather than investors looking to tear down the home for redevelopment.

What made the difference...

Erik’s strategic approach included staging the home, performing major yard clean-up, and managing the tenant’s move-out process—especially important since the sellers lived out of town. He organized a Broker/Public Open House, attracting over 50 people, followed by five additional open houses, resulting in more than 185 visitors through the property within just three weeks. Constant communication and updates kept the sellers informed and confident throughout the process.

Closing:

In an impressive turn of events, Erik received multiple offers and successfully negotiated an acceptable offer close to the asking price with no inspection contingency. This achievement not only showcased the effectiveness of our marketing strategies but also reinforced the strong relationship we had built with our clients over the years.
