Fresh Starts, Past Connections

By Living Room Realty, July 16, 2020

Hi Readers!

How’s everyone?

Today I want to share the story of Tom and Nicole. They were introduced to me by Tom’s sister, Christine. She and I worked together in our past lives, and I was so glad to hear from her when she asked if I could help. Tom and Nicole were getting divorced and needed to sell their home.

It was/is an amicable split, but there was work to do before we could get the home on the market for top dollar.  After meeting with them separately over Zoom, and taking a virtual walk through of the home over FaceTime, I set an appointment to come to the home and evaluate it in person to inform my pricing opinion and get a sense of what they could do to quickly get it on the market and maximize their ROI. Together, we created a punchlist for the home they agreed to do, including painting the exterior of the home. I turned to my friend and color expert at Miller Paint to give some suggestions of color combinations, and provided them with my exclusive discount to help them purchase the paint and get the home show-ready. I layered in my staging and design to give the home a fresh, modern and charming feel.

Within three weeks, we were on the market. The HD photos and interactive tour gave the buyers what they needed to get a sense of the home online. Off the bat, tours were scheduled by appointment and spaced apart to prevent overlap/crowds. By day two on the market, Tom and Nicole had five offers to consider, all of them well above asking. Now, three weeks later, they’ve closed on the sale of their home and are able to move forward to their next chapter. I wish them all the best and am so grateful for their trust and partnership in the journey.

Divorce is a painful and sh*#%y process, especially if you need to split your assets. I promise to neutrally partner with you, be clear of expectations and timelines and work my a$$ off to get the sale of the home done as quickly, and above asking, as possible. Give me a call: 503 388 2788
