Fight Like A Furumasu

By Living Room Realty, September 26, 2019

We met Beth & Chelsea (the dynamic Furumasu sisters), a few years back at a community group and shared our lives together. A few years past and we got a Facebook Message from Beth saying that she thought it was about time to start looking for a home and she would like to interview Jason and myself. We were honored that she reached out.

A few weeks later we met at our office to try to dazzle Beth with our professionalism.  : ) Since we were already friends, we knew that we needed to show Beth that we would take this role very seriously and could put on our REALTOR® hats and represent her with fervor.

We were honored to hear that we were the chosen ones and we quickly hit the pavement looking at homes.  Jason showed her a few and Beth and Chelsea went to look at a few open houses a week later. After their open house visit Beth messaged us to say that they thought they found the one.

Since Beth already had her pre-approval in place with her fantastic lender, Dan Barton w/ Caliber Home Loans, we went to work on the offer and Beth and Chelsea wrote a beautiful letter to the sellers so that the transaction felt more personal.  Soon we found ourselves in contract on this beautiful home beating out the competition!

Beth was wise and decided to do multiple inspections on her soon to be home. We were all surprised with the amount of repairs that were needed after all the inspections were completed. So, we came together as a team and got her the information she needed on the costs of the repairs to figure out what her bottom line was to present to the sellers.

Jason and I soon learned that the fighter spirit in our friends was Samurai like.  Our theme soon became ‘Fight Like A Furumasu.’ Beth stuck to her guns and ended up with the terms she needed to make this home the perfect investment for her and her sister to make shine with their vision.

We are so happy for you both Beth and Chelsea! And we can’t wait to see the sparkle you will bring to your new home!
