An estate on a South Gables cul-de-sac. Nearly an acre of land that can no longer be created.

In September 2020, a buyer client acquired an estate on a quiet cul-de-sac in South Gables. The purchase price was $2,250,000. The investment was not in the 1971 structure; it was in the land itself, a nearly one-acre lot of a scale that can no longer be assembled in the neighborhood. Maria Meshcherskaya, supported by Oleg Sergiienko, represented the buyer in a purchase timed just before the submarket began to reprice sharply. An automated valuation model from July 18, 2026, estimated the property's value at $7,131,000, suggesting a gross unrealized appreciation of approximately $4,881,000, or 217 percent. This represents a 3.17x multiple and an annualized return of roughly 21.9% over about 5.8 years. These figures are theoretical: they are gross and unrealized, excluding any costs of renovation, carrying, taxes, or a future sale, and the model is an estimate, not an appraisal. The numbers demonstrate the power of timing, as market appreciation amplified a decision that was sound the day it closed.

The value was not added after the sale. It was acquired at the closing table, embedded in the land itself.
