I am getting experience today working with a seller that has lost her husband and needs to sell their home of seventeen years to downsize and move to another state to be closer to her daughter and grandchildren.
I see the pain in her eyes as she prepares to leave their home, also. She has a lot to deal with from selling household items to searching for a new home that she will feel safe and comfortable in alone.
As an agent, I don't just handle the real estate transaction, I listen and comfort when needed. I haven't had to deal with such a move, but after she does find the new home, she has to get familiar with new doctors, dentist, government offices, grocery stores, neighbors, finding her way around in a new town and more.
I sympathize with her knowing she is very emotional at this time, but needing to remain strong and confident that all will be okay.
Each real estate client has a story to tell...some happy, some heartbreaking.
