You’ve all probably heard that a real estate transaction will likely be one of the most stressful events in your life. But real estate PLUS everything that’s going on right now is… um… well, it kind of feels like living through an apocalypse (and yes I realize that ‘living through an apocalypse’ is an oxymoron).
Cut to Kirk and Celise who had been living a lovely life in London after work carried them there a few years ago. Then 2020 upended a bunch of stuff for them and Presto Change-O, they came to the Portland area for Kirk’s sister’s (very small camping) wedding, and then bought a house in Hillsboro. The end.
I mean seriously, 2020 just kinda feels like that right? Kirk and Celise (and many of you I’m sure) have got to be feeling like they got lifted in the great Wizard of Oz Pandemic Tornado of life, and then were plopped down in Portland just in time to experience the worst Wicked Witch worthy fire season we’ve seen in our beautiful state. Folks are getting a ton o’ S_ _ T thrown at them fast and we’re seeing big life decisions made in real time minutes before our very eyes. Kirk and Celise are definitely not alone on this front.
But Kirk and Celise now have shelter in this apocalypse of a year. They even got their keys a whole 24 hours before the smoke started to get bad in our area. And they now have a place where they can weather out this storm, and carry on to a wonderful and full life in a new town that will, once the smoke clears out (and the pandemic is contained), be brimming with hope and opportunity once more.
It’s our job to help you get to your heaven on the other side of your 2020 end-of-days feelings. And we will do that for you. We’ve been working real estate for more than 15 years and we’ve worked all kinds of markets and conditions. And while global pandemics and the worst air quality in the world are definitely new to us, we are carrying on and helping people find shelter in their storms, just like Kirk and Celise, and their cutie-patootie daughter.
Stay Strong Oregon. We will get through this.
