This house was a San Diego Probate Sale that I got for $375k. The owner wouldn’t let anyone in to see it so many San Diego investors hesitated. I gained access after dressing in my dirtiest jeans, showing up and buying him beer and cigarettes. He was actually a nice guy, just down on his luck and in a bad situation.
In the State of California, San Diego Probate Sales usually need to get approved by the court. I was really nervous that someone was going to show up to the courthouse and outbid me since I got such a deal on it.
It was a drug house with surveillance cameras and hidden compartments cut into the walls. We pulled out drug paraphernalia boxes hung down into the walls by string. The house had missing windows and drywall throughout.
Rats went running across our feet when we demo’ed the kitchen cabinets. I removed 6 dumpsters of debris before the house demo even began. This was a total re-do from the studs out.
It took me 4 months to complete this Clairemont remodel. A lot of late nights and busy weekends. After 35 days on the market this house sold for $500K, full price. We buy San Diego probate houses, call us for a cash offer. 619 438-0234
