Historic Willo Home at 530 W Almeria Rd Sells at 97.25% of List Price

The Willo Historic District is one of Phoenix’s most beloved neighborhoods — where charming architecture and rich history meet modern living. Recently, the home at 530 W Almeria Rd sold for 97.25% of its original list price — and with no concessions or repairs required.

This sale highlights not just the strength of Willo’s real estate market, but also the importance of working with an agent who knows historic properties inside and out.

Why Experience with Historic Homes Matters

Selling a historic home isn’t like selling new construction. These properties have quirks that only an experienced eye can properly explain and market.

Take 530 W Almeria Rd: the plaster ceiling showed some cracks. To an untrained agent or buyer, that might look like a defect. In reality, those cracks occurred years ago when the original roof was replaced and vibrations caused the plaster to shift — a normal occurrence in homes of this age.

Without the right guidance, issues like this can lead to unnecessary concessions or price reductions. With the right expertise, sellers maximize their value and buyers feel confident in their purchase.

The Power of Neighbors

Another key to this successful sale? Community connections.

The buyer wasn’t a stranger — it was a neighbor, who wanted their family to be closer. This is a reminder that when selling in Willo, it’s not always about casting the widest net. Sometimes, the perfect buyer is already next door.
