"The three-bedroom Mediterranean-style home in San Francisco's Westwood Highlands was home to married couple Paula Truong, 53, and Thomas 'TR' Ocheltree, 57, and their two daughters, Mackenzie Ocheltree, 9, and Alexandra Ocheltree, 12."
"Truong and Ocheltree reportedly purchased the home in 2014 for $1.35 million, and took out a $2.2 million loan against it in 2022, later defaulting on that loan."
"The couple's financial struggles, which included several retail businesses that closed in recent years, were the apparent cause of the tragedy, in which Truong is believed to have taken the lives of her husband and two daughters before hanging herself in the garage last October."
"After the home went on the market, in March, some buyers were reportedly spooked after learning what had happened there, but others were not."
The Westwood Highlands home, site of a murder-suicide, was listed for $1,499,950 and sold for $2.2 million shortly after. The tragic event involved Paula Truong, who killed her husband and two daughters before taking her own life. Financial struggles led to the family's distress, and the home had been purchased in 2014 for $1.35 million. Despite some buyers being deterred by the home's history, the sale closed on April 15, 2023, at a price significantly above the asking amount.
