Zen Buddhist Master… of Real Estate

The internet is a funny thing. Scott and Michele called me to help them in their search for a home in Portland. That is always a welcome phone call, and, of course, I asked them how it is that they had gotten my information. I’m always love to thank the person who refers me. Scott simply let me know that they had found me on the ‘inter-net’.  Well, ok then, let’s get to work!

We had a great time, found them a great house and the sellers were exceptional.  It was pure joy working together.

After signing I asked more about how they found me on the “inter-net” as I don’t advertise online.

In 2015 a client turned friend had written a client testimonial as follows:

“Sean has the cool-headedness of a zen master. The home buying process can be an emotional roller coaster and problems can spring up without warning much like ninjas during the unrest of the Sengoku period in the Iga Province of Japan. Without Sean’s professional guidance and emotional support, we would have been completely nervous and slack jawed going through the process. When Sean is your real estate agent, you get:

•Help when you have no idea what you are doing

•Someone who stays in contact with you

•An expert who knows ALL areas in Portland (this is a big deal because there are more hot neighborhoods than Voodoo donuts)

•A genuinely nice person (he won’t judge you if you want shag carpeting and a mirror over the bed)

•A complete professional who knows how to do paperwork and submit everything in an orderly fashion (hello DocuSign)

•A person you can trust to meet the inspector and anyone who needs to come over to the house (he met my mother and impressed her socks off, which never happens!)

In summation, Sean’s yoda-like temperament helps you get through the home buying process without you losing your mind. If you don’t know what you’re doing, go see Sean. If you do know what you’re doing, go see Sean anyway. Buddha has been quoted as saying, Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without. The next best thing is to just contact Sean. He can help.”

 

Scott had entered ‘Real Estate Agent Portland Buddhist’ in a google search and I was the only agent to come up, thanks primarily do to Faith and her review of our time working together.

Good fortune finds a way and it came in the form of Scott and Michele for me.

Thank you both for your trust when you found out I was simply a recovering Catholic. Congratulations on your new home!
