Our Website, and Real Estate from Afar

It happens a few times a year: someone who found our website while living in a distant city, looking to relocate up here in the Pacific Northwest.

Kellie and I finished a transaction recently with a lovely person by name of Angela, who was living in the Los Angeles area.  Angela and I exchanged a few e-mails... and she finally left me a note that she was coming up to the area to look at a few homes in particular.

Now get this: Angela drove the 1,500+ miles up here... and we had never even spoken on the phone!  I made some time in my schedule, and she finally called on a Sunday afternoon after a long drive north.  Monday morning we met, and went to look at houses.  In less than 4 hours, we'd written an offer for her home, and she's as excited about that house today as the first moment she saw it.

I'm always amazed at the power and reach of the Internet, but I guess we're doing something right with our website.  That folks like Angela find the information they need, and trust us to represent them in a Real Estate transaction.

Angela wrote a lovely testimonial (which I've copied in its entirety, somewhere here on this ActiveRain site).  Thanks, Angela!

My wife and I regularly plan our trip to Europe (this year it's Germany, Italy, Switzerland and France) without talking to anyone - all done online.  In fact - if we can't find a place on line we're immediately suspicious... who doesn't have a website?  :) (um, about 80% of the restaurants in King County for one).

What ever happened to the unwelcoming commitee up here (WA) for So-Cals?
