7334 199th Street, Fresh Meadows, NY | $1,180,000
In today’s real estate market—where high interest rates have slowed buyer activity—closing a property at full asking price is never easy. I’m proud to share a recent success: the sale of 7334 199th Street in Fresh Meadows, a two-family house that closed at $1.18M, exactly at the asking price.
A Property with Challenges — and Opportunity
This home was in raw condition and required a full renovation. It wasn’t move-in ready, and that can be intimidating for many buyers. However, for the right investor or end-user, it represented a blank canvas with strong long-term value in one of Queens’ most desirable residential neighborhoods.
Full-Service Representation from Start to Finish
This transaction was more than just listing and negotiating. As the seller’s agent, I supported my client every step of the way, including:
Helping move furniture out of the house
Coordinating cleanup and preparation
Assisting with moving appliances such as the washer, dryer, and stove
Making sure the property was presented as clearly and honestly as possible to buyers
Real estate is not just paperwork—it’s hands-on problem solving. Especially when a property needs work, sellers need an agent who is willing to step in and get things done.
Strategy Matters in a High-Interest-Rate Market
Despite the market headwinds, we priced the property correctly, targeted the right buyer profile, and highlighted the upside potential of a two-family home in Fresh Meadows. With the right positioning and negotiation strategy, we were able to:
Attract serious buyers
Maintain strong interest
Secure a deal without a price reduction
A Win for the Seller
Closing at asking price under these conditions means the seller achieved a strong outcome, even in a slower market. This sale reinforces an important message:
With the right strategy and the right agent, sellers can still win—regardless of market conditions.
If you’re considering selling a property that needs work, or you’re unsure how to navigate today’s market, I’m always happy to help.
