View ListingAnd just like that, 5137 NE Wistaria was sold! 🪄
Prepping Wistaria for market was a sprint. The sellers interviewed agents in late July and chose me to represent them within a few days. With Back To School looming, we had two choices: list by early/mid August, or wait until after Labor Day.
Listing by August 9 was..aspirational? Delusional? Anxiety-inducing? Yes, and it’s what we did. We quickly discussed pre-list improvements & budget and made a game plan. I whisked my clients off to Central Oregon and got to work.
Getting prep work and vendors scheduled with less than 2 weeks was a damn miracle, but we hit our August 9 goal. 30+ groups came through that first weekend, leading to multiple strong offers over asking in 5 days!
Dream results for both sides. A smooth, painless transaction for my clients, and a major upgrade for the buyers, who – turns out – were moving from literally 6 houses down. DREAMS coming true, friends.
Congrats to all
You might have heard the term "MLS" thrown around when talking about real estate. Maybe you’ve seen abbreviations like RMLS or NWMLS. Maybe you’ve wondered how sites like Zillow actually get their data. So let’s talk about what the MLS actually is, why it exists, and why it matters to you.
