What made 5104 Tehama Ave stand out?
For this sale, we focused the property story on a practical layout and a backyard with a clear identity. The main level includes three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, the living and dining areas, and the kitchen. A separate fourth bedroom upstairs adds flexible space without changing the main-level flow.
We kept the interior presentation bright and easy to understand. Wide windows bring natural light into the living areas, and the kitchen connects to a dining nook with solid-surface counters, a gas range, dishwasher, and refrigerator. We also made the practical energy features easy to find, including seller-owned solar, battery backup, EV charging, and a newer heat pump.
We chose to lead with the backyard. A mature grapevine grows over the wood trellis beside the patio, with a mature fig tree and established plantings around the fenced yard. We described the detached workshop and storage structure as useful project and storage space, not as living area.
The sale result was 6 offers, an accepted contract in 14 days, and a $688,000 closing price, which was $58,000 above the $630,000 list price.

How did the sale come together?
Situation
My seller brought a feature-rich Richmond home to market
My seller brought a four-bedroom Richmond home to market with several distinct features: a fenced corner lot, mature garden, grapevine-covered trellis, separate upstairs bedroom, detached workshop, and seller-owned solar with battery backup.
Our goal was to present those features as one clear property story so buyers could quickly understand the home's layout, outdoor spaces, and practical extras.
Strategy
We led with the garden, then showed the full layout
We focused the marketing on the home's most visual and useful features: the garden setting, grapevine-covered trellis, bright living areas, four-bedroom layout, detached workshop, and energy upgrades. We balanced exterior, interior, and backyard images so buyers could understand both the floor plan and the outdoor spaces.
We introduced the home at $630,000. We kept the public presentation easy to scan and gave the garden and workshop enough attention to stand out without overstating their use. We described the workshop as project and storage space, not as additional living area.
The home received 6 offers, and the seller accepted a contract 14 days after the July 30 listing date.
Result

I never treat one sale as a promise of what another home will sell for. Price, condition, location, timing, financing, buyer demand, and contract terms can all affect a sale.

What should owners know about the Southwest Annex market?
Southwest Richmond Annex is a small market, so I read neighborhood statistics with care. A few sales can move the numbers quickly. Recent three-month data through July 2026 showed a neighborhood median sale price of about $637,000, but the sample was limited.
Redfin reported a 105.6% citywide sale-to-list ratio for Richmond in July 2026 across all home types. This home sold at about 109.2% of its $630,000 list price.
Local pricing note: I treat neighborhood medians as context, not as an appraisal. Home condition, lot utility, location, insurance, financing, concessions, and contract terms can create large differences from one sale to the next.
