1421 Meadow Ln

Listed at $1,596,000. Sold for $2,125,000, after just 20 days on the market.

This trust sale had sellers on two continents. The home was held in a trust with one local trustee who had never bought or sold real estate. Two 25% owners lived in Norway and had inherited their shares when the owner passed away. Before closing, one of the owners in Norway also passed away, and a new trustee based in San Francisco stepped in on her behalf. He didn't use email or e-signing, so every document had to be hand-delivered and signed with him in person.

Cassie held open houses two weekends in a row, which is unusual in this market, and the home went into contract on February 21, 2015. She then coordinated sign-offs across multiple countries, including signatures at embassies, and worked with several attorneys and trustees to keep the sale together through a long escrow. It closed on June 1, 2015, at $529,000 over the list price.

3 bedrooms, 2 baths, 1,459 sq ft. Sold by Cassie Maas, Anderson Christie.
