Passing It ON

Don't you feel good when  finding the right house for your buyers?  The pleasure of seeing the joy and excitement is almost as good as getting paid.

In the midst of the appraisal, bank and money problems, good sales still occur. Doing the walk- through of their new Shell Knob lakefront home last week, with my perfect buyers, I discovered there are still perfect sellers out there too!  Earth Angels!

The sellers left the house immaculate. The appliances looked like they had never been used, and even the garage was clean!

They left a coffee maker, with coffee and a note next to it for the buyers to enjoy a coffee break  while moving in.

They provided a bound book with all the receipts and contact info for work done on the house, as well as manufacturers information on products in the house - a complete history for the new owners.

The buyers had purchased some of the furniture, which included a bedroom set. The sellers  spent the previous night there, but washed, folded and left the linens ,  plus soap at various sinks and in the laundry.

 Knowing how exhausting moving can be, this thoughtful pair went above and beyond. Guess this is a good example of "passing it on" to new Shell Knob residents.

Isn't it just a blessing when the sellers leave the home sparkling clean? For buyers of short sales it can be important to arrange for a thorough cleaning the day of closing.

Sounds like a great experience all around . . . good for sellers to leave enough time after moving for a little cleaning.

Joan, what a wonderful story.  Wish there were more sellers like that!
