Derek and Michelle first laid eyes on their lovely Lake Oswego home back in March; March 13th to be exact. They saw this great house online and given that they lived out of state, wondered if we could “video” it for them. Property videos are one of our most important tools for our out of area buyers, so with the back drop of school closure announcements due to spreading Covid-19 in our area, I headed down to Lake Oswego to take some fun property videos armed with with tons of hand sanitizer (hard to believe but masks weren’t a thing back then), my phone and my Gimble! OH, no big deal but it also was just about to start snowing… on March 13th.
As I walked around the incredible 1 acre lot, I recall saying on the video, “well, it’s freezing and gloomy and wet right now, but boy, I bet this place is AMAZING in July”.
Well, it is truly amazing in July. And while yes, it took a few attempts to get an offer accepted, and yes, Covid-19 made everything harder than it should have been, and yes March 13th seems like a lifetime ago, Derek and Michelle and their three kiddos are moving to Lake Oswego to experience the amazing of Lake Oswego July, in person. 
We truly couldn’t be happier for them. Not everyone has the grit to make an out of state move during a pandemic but if you are up for it like Derek and Michelle, just let us know! All you need to get started are some fun, HouseLovePDX property videos (and definitely some gloves, masks and lots of hand sanitizer)!
