Timeline…What Timeline?!

By Olivia Rush, April 1, 2023

Congratulations to Chrys & Mo on the purchase of their first home! These first-timers are gonna have to create some new long term goals.

A fellow agent and former-teacher referred C+M to me. Coming from a different market, he wanted to make sure I’d vibe with their blue hair and tattoos. I told him half of us in Portland look like that. I had dreadlocks for 6 years, sir – I’ll take good care of your people!

From the moment I first spoke with C+M, we clicked. They were planners. The original timeframe for their first purchase? 2024/2025. But after an initial visit to Portland where we toured a few homes, they quickly targeted a new move date: fall 2023.

Well, sometimes the right house comes along…and you gotta throw all caution to the wind and ask her to dance. We did just that, scheduling a virtual showing right away and then crafting a stellar offer with strong terms and a quick close to beat out 2 other offers.

Repair negotiations Can a bit tricky, but these were straightforward! In the end, we were able to negotiate a sizable credit to be put toward a number of maintenance items (as well as guaranteeing the removal of a dead rat from the crawlspace prior to close – no one wants uninvited guests!)

As of today, C+M are officially Oregonians! They’re excited for the rain and cooler temps – we’ll see how long that lasts. Cheers, y’all!
