We take pride in helping our clients through the home selling or buying process (or even both) in a way where it isn’t scary or stressful but instead exciting! We want a “win” for our clients no matter the circumstances.
The sellers wanted to keep the sale quiet since they were collectors of fine art and artifacts. A buyer expressed interest but it took 3 lenders to find the right solution. We had to sell the buyer’s house and their mom was going to move in with them so the listing for the mom’s house was contingent on the successful closing of the other home. Everything went as planned giving all parties plenty of time to move! Through staging, decorating, professional marketing, all sellers received the most money for their homes!
The seller invested both time and money to completely refresh this already amazing home. We listed it at $489,900 and received multiple offers and accepted an offer for $521,000! The home appraised at $495,000 unfortunately. We reached out to an offer we didn’t accept and over the course of a few days, strongly negotiated a back up offer that competed with the current offer. The buyer decided they didn’t want to give up the house and met the purchase price helping our seller recoup the money he had invested. The buyer was able to have the home they wanted and the seller received top dollar for his home.
This home was in an estate and the family reached out to us for assistance. We managed the contractors to have the wallpaper removed in the bathrooms, new carpet and flooring in bathrooms replaced, the entire house was painted. The outside was cleaned up, extra contents removed, new railing and steps for deck, and general landscaping completed, the house pressure washed and exterior trim painted. We professionally staged, decorated, and marketed the home. Through this process, the sellers were able to realize an increase of $80,000 of profit for the sale of the home.
We helped the sellers find a new home and negotiated an offer that gave them time to sell their current home and move. The home they were purchasing was contingent on those seller’s building a new home. Staging, decorating, and professionally marketing the home got us 8 offers. We accepted an offer after negotiating extra time for our sellers to move. We kept all realtors on the same page by publishing a schedule of events to make sure that our clients didn’t end up homeless in the process.
The home our sellers were moving to had some quality issues. We quickly scheduled a structural engineer to meet with our clients and had a report right away. This was an important step to ensuring our clients knew exactly the condition of the home before the completion of the deal. Everything worked out perfectly and our clients are enjoying their new home!
