Truly, after years of doing this, I’m just still counting my blessings 💫
The loyalty and trust this friend and client has granted me over the years is beyond an honor. Thank you for allowing me to continue to make your real estate goals a reality.
The truth is we both love our hometown, committed to it, my client so much more then I. But we caught on quickly that this was going to be a tough win - so we prepared for battle. Add David Bunk at Guaranteed Rate in the mix and that’s three!
We weren’t the only one with an escalation clause, and we weren’t the only hometown team trying.
I approach every client offer the same way every time.
This is in the way I envision it being my personal purchase - protecting it as such - especially in this situation. It was being purchased for a very special and heartfelt reason.
Three steps took us home:
1. Expert Communication — The who, what, when, where, and why aren’t just details; they’re leverage. I gather the right intel so every move is informed as much as possible.
2. Strategic Offer Structure — Terms, timing, and market data all work together. I have to craft offers that stand out for strength, clarity, and in alignment with both the buyers AND the seller’s priorities.
3. Professional, Consistent Agent‑to‑Agent Communication — Deals are won in the follow‑through. We maintain open, respectful communication from start to finish to ensure a smooth, confident path to acceptance. This listing agent was a true professional to work with. ✨🔑✅
