If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again…and again!

By Living Room Realty, May 11, 2021

My clients were expecting their 2nd child and already had a toddler to chase…missing out in Portland’s brisk seller’s market wasn’t an option! So, we pulled up our boot straps and got down to it!

With the precision of an air traffic controller, I carefully planned our afternoon of showings like a mosaic across town. I found the perfect options that checked all the boxes. Bam…we got a hit on day one! A well-crafted offer was submitted and we excitedly awaited the outcome. It was a “no”.

Brush it off, get back up and do it again…and again. 7 more times, actually.  Don’t lose faith, stay in the game and keep going.  Maybe it’s the 3rd time, or in this case, the 8th, it will happen. House buying karma will be in your favor, too! You will soon be handed the keys to your new home and say, “This is so worth it! I’m so glad we hung in there!”
