Blog Buyer Oh my God we have a house!

Oh my God we have a house!

By Martin Cross, May 5, 2021

Mea and Thom entered this crazy sellers market well educated and with delibrance. Taking their time, educating themselves on the process, watching as homes sold and talking with me about what to expect when they were ready to make an offer. Unlike many people in today’s market, they had no sense of urgency. Their living place was secure so they could take their time and see enough homes to be confident in their needs and wants.

After looking at a half dozen or so houses, and still feeling like the were in the “research’ phase, we found this sweet little dream boat of a house and she checked all the boxes. With a strong offer and a few clever contingencies we got them into contract on the first home they offered on!! After sailing through inspections, they closed right on schedule.

One of my favorite parts of this business is handing over keys and seeing the excitement overflow from my buyers as the reality of home ownership sets in. Watching Mea exclaim “Oh my god we have a house!” as she hugged Thom filled my heart.

So give me a call when you’re ready to exclaim “oh my God we have a house!!”

He/Him

I have lived in Portland my entire life and spent the last 20 years in the Creston-Kenilworth neighborhood of SE Portland. As such, I know inner SE like the back of my hand and I am very familiar with most neighborhoods in the Portland metro area. After almost 25 years filling people's homes with great design and art I shifted my love of finding great things, for great people, towards Real Estate. My eye for quality and attention to detail serves both my buyers and sellers equally. As a business owner most of my life, I understand the concepts of problem solving, coordination with others, and hard work. I always say..."Great things rarely come from a 40 hour work week." If you want a Portland native who is hard working, responsive, and compassionate - give me a call. I look forward to working with you to find that perfect home or that perfect buyer for yours whether the house be Craftsmen, Modern, brand new, or a fixer.
