610 14th Street in Sacramento is more than just an address—it's a piece of history. This Victorian triplex stands as a testament to perseverance and the intricate journey of real estate.
The Cold Call That Started It All
The journey began in the fall of 2023 with a seemingly ordinary cold call. On the other end was an estate administrator, a woman who had recently inherited a portfolio of properties from her late parents. Without a trust in place, only a will, we embarked on a lengthy probate process to approve these properties for sale.
A Series of Sales
Over the months, we successfully sold four properties:
A fixer-upper in South Lake Tahoe
A four-plex in East Sacramento
A single-family home right next to 610 14th Street
The Toughest Challenge: 610 14th Street
Built in the 1890s and relocated two blocks to its current site in the 1980s, 610 14th Street came with its fair share of obstacles:
Unsafe decks
Utilities turned off
Abandoned items in the top units
A non-operational car in the garage
A tenant paying below-market rent

These challenges were compounded by failed escrows, multiple price drops, and over 100 days on the market.
A Triumph of Persistence
Despite these hurdles, we remained steadfast. Through strategic planning, teamwork, and unwavering determination, we sold this triplex for $656,500 in January 2025. Every property sale has its own story, and this one is about closure—not just for the property, but for the beneficiaries of the estate.
