Closed: Cosy West Linn Home, Against the Odds!

By Marissa Sainz, September 13, 2021

We did it, Betsy! My client was house hunting for a few months in the brutal spring market when she put in an offer for a West Linn property. She was second in line when the first buyers backed out. Just when Besty was in the position to buy, the sellers decided to take the home off the market!
Fast forward 3 months, the listing agent tells me the home is going to be re-listed. We pushed to submit an offer prior to the home going on the market and… huzzah! We did it. Betsy now owns a cute, 800 sq ft home, walking distance from her son’s school.
With three bedrooms, the mother-son-duo can use the extra bedroom as a guest room for visiting family and friends. The backyard featured a patio, large, fenced yard, and a playhouse. is going to have a blast in the summers!
We scored with brand new renovations throughout the home. Previous owners repaired and/or replaced the roof, gutters, plumbing, gas furnace, electric water tank, and interior/exterior paint. Plus, oak hardwood and marmoleum flooring was added throughout — fantastic durability for Besty’s little one running around.
Here’s to new beginnings. In this crazy market you never know when the right home will come on the market or come back to you on the market. Congrats Betsy!
