Abbie came into the home search with a great laid-back attitude.  She wanted a home sooner than later, but did not have a lot of particular desires regarding what that home needed to be.

She was open to condos, open to a range of areas, and open to all different styles.  The only things truly necessary were that it had to fit her budget and she had to love it.  Often, this would be the perfect recipe for a quick search, and Abbie would be a happy home owner and moving in before she knew it.

Well…….Obviously, we know this story has a happy ending –  but it wasn’t quite as simple as Abbie would have hoped.

In the current market, with low interest rates, lower inventory, and a large pool of people shopping for homes, it can feel very daunting to be a first-time home buyer, with limited funds.

There are often multiple offers, and the home that looked so perfect and affordable, is suddenly, and sadly, out of reach.  It can feel hard to go through the emotional process of falling in love with a home, and writing an offer, only to have it rejected……a few times.

But, I’m happy to declare that, if a buyer hangs in there, that perfect, affordable home almost always comes around.  And with the right negotiations and advice, that first time home buyer finds success!!!

This rang true for Abbie, as well.

Just when she thought that she was going to get outbid for the rest of her natural life, the CUTEST (!!!) St. John’s home came on the market.  It was a home she loved way more than any other she had put offers in on.  And, as you can probably guess….IT”S HER’S!

Congratulations Abbie!  This one was definitely worth waiting for!
