Keepin it in the Family

By Living Room Realty, March 23, 2021

With a healthy budget and reasonable timeline- Audrey, Casi and I hit the streets to look for their new home. Standing in line to enter even when we had an appointment, pending before we could even get there the next day, $80k+ over on asking price- they began to get the buyer blues; Portland’s inventory is brutal right now and they quickly learned that reality. They had mentioned that they had an opportunity to purchase the home she grew up in, which was enticing- but also they were excited to start a new chapter completely in a home of their own. After a few months, I got the call I had anticipated.. they were moving forward with the family home. As I pulled up for inspections- I saw sidewalk chalk marks in the driveway from their little boy and I grazed photos that had been hanging on the wall for decades of memories together; it was then that I could feel the decision was a good one. Doing the gentle waltz of family dynamics, this week we come to a close. One party downsizing to a wonderful home just down the street and the other filling into a home with history to create the next generation of holidays, laughter and memories together. Congratulations to all of you, I’m so grateful to be a part of it!
