When a new community is close to close-out, the model home is put on the market.   This model home never went on MLS, but my buyer fell in love with it.    They accepted her offer, and will work with selling her home.  These are paired townhomes with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and a 2-car attached garage.   Meritage Homes is known for building very energy-efficient green homes. The builder offered all the furniture, decor and even the towels in the bathroom for a great price, which my Buyer agreed to. Depending on how her sale goes, and if we have to sell her home more than once, she should close end of August. 07/29/2021

As expected, this home had immediate showings, and was seeing 30% of the buyers writing offers, but many were investors, and they were still looking for a deal, even though it was priced as a fixer.    The winning bid was a REALTOR that will buy and rent.    We do have two back-up offers. This ranch home has great bones, good layout, but needs some love.    This home is located in highly acclaimed Cherry Creek Schools, has 3 beds, 2 full bathrooms, and an attached 2-car garage.   There are 1,190 square feet on the main floor and 1,156 square feet in the basement, fully finished.   Priced at $385,000.    3537 S.
