🎉CLOSED & FUNDED🎉
THIS ONE. This is the one. The selections, the emotions, the design center, the power hold, the appraisal, the excitement, the trespassing 😂, the anxiety, the anticipation, the sacrifice…THE DREAM HAS COME TRUE.
My friends & clients have had this goal - of this house on this lot in this neighborhood - for years. They have sacrificed, lived out of state, waited patiently, planned meticulously, & have overseen the construction of this house every single day. This home is their dream, one they have worked so hard for, and this week, they got the keys. There is no one more deserving of this accomplishment than the Rashalls, & I am out of this world in awe of them & honored to be their realtor & friend.
Even if you are building a new construction home, hire a realtor. I’ll be honest. Most of this transaction, I played hype girl. Design center selections, walk-throughs, etc. There isn’t a lot of negotiating to be done, so I supported in every other way I could. That is, until the appraisal came in on this home. Being the first golf course lot in Riceland to close, available comps were nonexistent. The appraised value returned *significantly lower than the contract price, which is a problem. A potential deal-breaking problem. In that moment, I felt like a bench player that got called in to kick the winning goal 😂. I’ve never put a more comprehensive reconsideration of value package together in my career, doing all I could to prove the value of the home to the appraiser & pray he reconsiders. And reconsider he did, in a huge way. If you are building, you need an experienced realtor in your corner. Maybe not in all the traditional ways, but exactly for instances like this.
CONGRATULATIONS, my darling friends. Live your absolute best life in your big, beautiful home!
Immediate needs or long-term goals, I’ll be by your side. Call or text, anytime!
