Financeable Fixer

By Living Room Realty, August 27, 2020

 

Alexis and Donny.  You are the best!  I received a text from them saying “we’re ready to start looking again”.  I was very excited as Alexis and Donny are some of my favorite people to work with.  Together we bought a home, sold that home, and now we’ve done it again.  They came to me with the following parameters:  A slight fixer, something we can do some of the work on, and still get some great value out of it.  They also said they wanted to be in a great neighborhood as they will be living in the home and then possibly adding it to their real estate empire in a few years.  We found this home, realized the value, as well as a large amount of work, that was included.

This home was marketed as a “financeable fixer”.  “It’s just been lived in” is how we all felt once walking in.  Old carpet, worn walls, outdated kitchen, a falling down fence, etc.  All “fixable” with a little hard work.  Working with the seller and her agent was nice and relaxed and definitely a breath of fresh air. It was a conversation that was empathetic to the needs of both parties.  My clients were decisive and quick to respond as well open to making it work.  In this market this is what’s necessary and as you can see it worked out for the best.  Congrats to all!!!
