When the first house is the perfect house.

By Living Room Realty, September 24, 2021

While that’s not usually the case, sometimes you just get lucky.

 

Jenn and Paul were referred to me by their friends who are my past clients. We met up for a patio happy hour to get to know each other and discuss their wish list for a new home.

We covered the nitty-gritty details of home buying — including the process of identifying homes, touring, writing offers, and navigating home inspections. They hoped to find a house or condo located in walkable proximity to public transit for easy commuting to the South Waterfront, with at least 2 bedrooms, some outdoor space, and a kitchen worthy of someone who cooks professionally.

I set up customized daily Homesearch emails for them and we planned an outing to tour homes together. Then, they mentioned they had just seen a new Open House posting that looked intriguing. It was for a condo listed by one of my Living Room Realty coworkers. Paul and Jenn were excited to make that their first stop on the house hunt.

Well . . . it turns out that was their only stop! They loved it.

Fast forward a month and they have the keys to the cutest condo. And it checks ALL the boxes on their wish list. Congratulations and Welcome Home!
