Closed + Closed…Time for a Cat Nap!

By Living Room Realty, September 23, 2023

Congratulations to the sweetest repeat clients, Heather and Doug! Good things are worth the wait.

I helped Heather and Doug  buy Jubilee in the fall of 2020. Relocating here from MN, they were welcomed by Smokepocalypse..what a time to be alive…

Jubilee was a perfect home for them while their 2 daughters finished out high school, but 3700 sq ft was more than they needed.

For the past 2 years, Heather and Doug had their eyes peeled. Every month or so I’d get a text that they had checked out this open house, or driven by that property. Over time, their search criteria and location evolved.

Heather and Doug exhibit what we realtors call Pride of Ownership – in other words, they keep their house meticulously clean and maintained. It was hard to find other homes that matched this level of care.

Until Sandy! She was listed in early July. The home was realtor-owned and the agents walked us through every single update they had done since purchasing it 20 years prior.

The pool didn’t hurt, either. We beat out another offer and closed quickly, meanwhile prepping Jubilee for market.

Jubilee was a late bloomer – but after 3 weeks on the market, we had 2 offers! We closed at list price, all within 2.5 months of their initial offer on Sandy.

The past few months have been a marathon for Heather and Doug. When I called them with the good news that it was all officially closed, Heather told me she was going to take a nap.

Wishing you all the cat naps in your beautiful new home. Cheers!
