CLOSED & Closer to the Love!

By Olivia Rush, January 25, 2024

Nothing like a smooth transaction with a delightful client to kick off 2024! (I’ll be manifesting these the rest of the year.)

Ellen is the mother of some very special past clients of mine. She was ready to make some big life adjustments to be, in her words, “closer to the love.”

Relocating from Redmond to PDX would mean spending a lot more time with her son, his family, and her brother- and sister-in-law.

The day after Christmas, Ellen reached out about a particular condo that happened to be in the same HOA as her in-laws, and just about 25 minutes from her grandkids.

I quickly learned that Ellen is a woman of action. Within 3 days, she was preapproved, writing an offer, and preparing to list her Redmond home in a week. 

Of course, after 60 days on market, another set of cash buyers came out of the woodwork. Ellen kept her eye on the prize. We worked together to craft a compelling offer, communicating overtime with the listing agent.

Ellen prepped herself for a loss, but her well-rounded offer and her story resonated with the sellers. We moved through the due diligence period fairly smoothly, and Ellen even accepted a full-price offer on her home in Redmond before closing on the condo!

Yesterday I handed Ellen the keys. Sister-in-law (and interior designer) Diane was there to celebrate and take measurements. Ellen’s pup Charley was also excited to claim this new home as his own! Within 24 hours, Ellen was already painting the primary. Like I said – a woman of action.

Cheers to getting yourself *closer to the love,* Ellen. I couldn’t be more excited for (and impressed by) you!
