Pulling A Sale Out My...

 

Buyer clients had a clear vision of their needs when we began their home home search journey. A favorable deal was at the top of the Wish List!  At that time, short sales were prevalent, the market extremely brisk.

 

They were ready, willing & able cash buyers. After educating them on multiple offers, quick timelines, minimal contingencies, we set off in search of a 2nd home that would serve them well for many years to come. 

 

An offer submitted on a foreclosure fell through due to mud in the crawl space upon the home inspection and new cracks on walls throughout the house each time we visited. The bank refused to address, we moved on.

 

A cute, little single level cottage adjacent to a city park caught my eye. We took a quick look and immediately submitted an offer. Unfortunately, my clients were in 4th position. However, patience and time was on our side.

 

The 1st offer fell off...

 

                                                    Then the 2nd...

 

                                                                                                     And the 3rd...

 

Making the call to my clients to announce the wonderful news was incredibly relieving and a true blessing for them. They became the primary offer on the table. It genuinely felt like magic! We quickly moved forward.

 

 

Whoever knew that a 4th position contract could lead to a successful sale? Answering questions, possessing current market knowledge, remaining composed during challenges and staying to the professional side, pays off.

 

This transaction proved that anything can occur in the real estate arena when all parties are aligned from the beginning. Relying on an experienced agent that can navigate and successfully pull a sale out, matters!

 

This couple became clients for life and good friends who have referred my services 6 times because Wanda Can! Thankful & grateful for them.

Hi Wanda- your clients were wise to choose you. Many would have had their buyer's bubble burst knowing they were fourth in line but  you get their spirits up and got them their home.

You just never know. If people love a home, put in an offer. And if it is accepted as backup, be patient. It just might work out!

Good morning, Wanda... just as we often say a home was not meant to be when a buyer was outbid... this is a great example of when it's meant to be, it's meant to be.

It was exactly what they were looking for and we kept looking at properties but I told them to leave that offer in place, Gwen Fowler SC Lakes & Mountains 864-710-4518. It paid off big for them!

When it came time for a bigger house, they doubled their purchase price when selling, Mark Don McInnes, Sandpoint-Idaho. A win-win for them!
