15+ months

By Jessica LeDoux, August 31, 2021

Adrienne and Spencer set out to find a parcel of land to farm and raise their two sons.  They started the search 15 months before they needed to be settled for their oldest to enroll in school.  We definitely felt that was plenty of time, but it was barely enough.  Limited inventory, preferred school restrictions, commute times, and trying to find quality land for them to farm proved to make this journey feel almost impossible, to say the least.  They were open to all ideas and angles to make this happen, but settling on those major points was not one of them.  Many properties we considered had some major concessions, and the ones that worked were fiercely competitive.  Time had run out and hope was almost lost until they found an interim school that their son could attend to give them more time – I was so happy for them to have found an option to take the pressure off, but it is funny how things work out because once the school pressure was solved another home hit the market.  The land was perfect and the house would work.  They fought hard for it and came out victorious – now they are about to get the keys and finally put this chapter behind them and move into a new chapter for their family.  Every second of helping them has been a joy!
