The house will be listed by our amiga, Jennifer Johnson, with Equity Real Estate Luxury Group. Jennifer was also our Realtor when we bought the house back in 2003. Her # is 435-901-1704.
We spent 6 full weeks putting the house back together and spent lots of $ doing so. Looking at the money that will continue to go out each month to pay for the improvements is steep. Add that to the money out to pay for and finish the Sayulita house and the financial benefits of selling significantly outweigh the argument for keeping it.
These are some photos that our realtor had taken of the property by Kellie Hatcher Photography. We think they are great. Makes me even sadder to see how good the house looks after working on the place for six weeks. We still enjoy the mountains, are close to many people there and love our neighbors on the street but it just isn't the place we want to come back to when there are so many great places to go visit in the world.
The market is up, inventory is low and the rental market is saturated with similar properties to rent. The house looks good and is empty to allow our Realtor to do her thing and see if she can find a buyer. We are sad but at the same time we feel relief at the idea that selling the house off may pave the way to bigger experiences rather than putting more money and time into something we may never have the means to really fix up properly. Our kids are unfazed by the idea since they were very young when they lived there and feel Sayulita is home too. Hopefully, another family can pick it up and love it as much as we did. Crossing fingers we can find a buyer soon.
