It takes strength in courage to forage out on your own. Karen lost her husband to cancer months ago and she knew she needed to move to Portland to be near friends and family after her loss.
If she didn’t move, sadness might get the best of her.
I can’t express how grateful I feel to have been the one she hired to help her navigate her house hunting journey. It was a tough one, but Karen never gave up. We wrote on many homes but we were always the runner up. In a way it was a blessing, it gave us months to get to know one another.
If it wasn’t for clients like Karen that are willing to lean all in, share their vulnerability and wisdom, show their fears and fight, I would have quit this business years ago. It’s people like her that make me feel like I am making a difference.
This woman gave me the inspiration I needed after working with a really hard set of clients (whom I can say nothing kind about). I’m so happy to have made a new friend for life. Cheers to all the Karen’s out there!
