Patrick and Quang were out-of-state buyers who jumped into the market initially via a real estate app. In our quick market, the allure of convenience that these apps offer can be enticing. However, big business brokerages with alternative service models are often juggling overwhelming volume and are not always able to provide personalized service to their buyers. Such was the experience of Patrick and Quang and when they toured the perfect Irvington bungalow and made an offer, they were not armed with the leverage of information and strategy in presenting their terms and lost out to the competition. Some Portland friends sent them our way and we were grateful for the opportunity to offer them more engaged representation. As luck would have it, the bungalow they had been after came back on the market and we were able to present an informed, competitive offer that was just what the seller was looking for. We are so glad Patrick and Quang got a second chance at the home they loved!
