Pending in Riverside — Update: sold

47 Carriglea Drive, asking $5.495 million [has sold for $4.7]. Brother Gideon represented the former owners when they sold it back in 2005 for $3.7. It was gut renovated after that, and put back up for sale with a new broker in 2015 at $6.995. That didn’t work out, so Gideon got a second bite of the apple (and a new price) and did the job.

UPDATE: This post is slightly garbled because the “pending” report was followed a couple of hours later by the sold. I’m guessing that, after paying to renovate this house, the sellers took a hit, but that’s real estate for you.
