Lovely in Alameda

By Sally Tansill, March 25, 2019

Lovely is defined as “exquisitely beautiful”.  Other synonyms include: beautiful, pretty, as pretty as a picture, attractive, good-looking, appealing, handsome, adorable, exquisite, sweet, personable, charming. 

From start to finish the transaction I just completed putting my wonderful clients into their Alameda home has been “lovely”, from the people to the home itself.  I am an east coast transplant and maintaining my connections to my friends and family has always been a top priority to me.  It was through one of these connections that I met my clients who were moving here from Massachusetts. Once we met in person and I understood where they were looking we began to narrow down their price range and aesthetic.  When a house came on the market that finally met their needs they decided to place an offer, but with humility thought they had no chance against a competing offer that came in at the same time.

When I received the call that the seller had accepted their offer and relayed the message there was genuine surprise on the other end.  The house represented more than just a purchase, but a journey that took two married physicians working in two different cities from the east coast to Portland and finally a home for them and their twin sons.  From beginning to end they have been a joy to work with, and when at the end of the deal the seller offered to give them some furniture my client said “Wow, the sellers seem like really lovely people”.  Somehow that turn of phrase seems like the perfect way to describe my clients, the home, and the couple who have maintained and taken care of this gem and have been so gracious.
