What happens when a property line isn’t where everyone thought it was — and you’re already in the middle of a seller transaction?

In this episode, host Monica Wason, Broker-Owner of M² Realty Group, is joined by REALTOR® Sergio Ruiz to break down a real sale that took an unexpected turn when a boundary line issue surfaced mid-transaction.

What initially appeared to be a straightforward listing quickly raised serious questions that could have impacted the value of the property, buyer confidence, and the future of the deal itself. Monica and Sergio walk listeners through how the issue was discovered, why it mattered, and the steps taken to protect the seller while keeping the transaction on track.

They discuss disclosure responsibilities, communication with all parties, and why experience matters when real estate problems can’t be solved with a simple repair or quick fix.

This episode offers a behind-the-scenes look at the realities buyers and sellers don’t always see — the problem-solving, strategy, and decisions that happen when unexpected challenges arise.

No hypotheticals. No fluff. Just real stories from real transactions in Salinas and Monterey County.
