🥳This week my client and I celebrated the purchase of her first home!

🦸‍♀️ This transaction started off a little rocky and got even rockier as time went on due to surprise liens and multiple extensions requested by the Seller... But throughout the prolonged transaction, Genia kept her focus and patience.

After 3 months of waiting, we were finally able to *cheers* to her new place! 🥰

😁 Big smiles from my clients who SOLD their home today!

On Closing Day, Sellers are often filled with mixed emotions: relief that the stress of selling is over, appreciation for the memories they made there, and well-wishes for the new owners' happiness...

In this case, the Buyers of Crystal and Charles' home are their close friends, so this 'goodbye' was less bitter and much more sweet!

The new owners are THRILLED to have a house that was well-loved by their friends and I'm sure that in the future both families will make many new memories in the home together. 😍
