Storybook Ending in Hillsboro

By Tracey Henkels, July 19, 2019

Congratulations to Chad and Libby!

I love this story and helping buyers as their families grow!

I worked with Cool-as-a-Cucumber-Chad when buying his starter home years ago. Fast forward to today and now he is the luckiest man on earth because he’s married to the Lovely-and-Amazing Libby and they have the cutest one-year-old and are planning for more. Time for a bigger house!

The sale of Chad’s original home was smooth sailing, we negotiated a great rent back so Chad and Libby had some breathing room to begin the big house hunt! It was very important to them that the next house be close to their jobs and big enough that their family could comfortably grow. They didn’t want to move again for quite some time.

The hunt was concise and happily, after just a couple of showings, there was one home that really stood out. They knew they wanted to raise their family in THIS home. It had a huge family room addition with added bedrooms and bathrooms, a huge yard, plus a picture-perfect ADU on the garage for added income or family. This home fits their vision exactly!

Congratulations to Chad and Libby!!
