At a bustling open house that was fresh out the oven I had the privileged of meeting Becky who quickly introduced me to her spunky twin Star. Not soon after meeting them we realized that they were our kind of people. They proceeded to let us know that they were looking for the right home for their folks, Frances & Harold, who were moving from out of state for years at this point. After we introduced ourselves over the phone, we knew we were going to be working and getting to know some very classy people. After our call we were stunned that at the amount of trust that Frances & Harold had in their twin daughters to pick out their home.
One weekend we were knee deep in snow and sledding with our daughter at Government Camp, when we got the call from Star & Becky that they found the house! At this point Frances & Harold had their home on the market in Arizona, so the sale would be contingent. We all worked together and put together an offer that would entice the seller to take it off the market after only 4 days on market. We soon found out that this would be a double contingency since the seller was also in contract on another home. Thankfully we were working with fantastic people on the other end (Jen Meyers w/ EXP Realty you are fantastic to work with!) and the deal came together.
Now the whirlwind began to swirl as Frances & Harold had to pack up their life in Arizona in the hopes that the wind would land them safely in their new life with Star, Becky & the rest of the family in Portland.
After inspections & bids ensued for items that were the most important to Frances & Harold to address, we were able to negotiate a substantial credit to help Frances & Harold move forward with the transaction and make this beautiful home their own home sweet home.
Our favorite thing about working with Frances & Harold is the way they expressed so much life and color through their every fiber. Frances & Harold are professional photographers and Frances has recently published her new book Unapologetic Beauty. We can’t wait to read it!
Frances, Harold, Becky & Star you all were such a pleasure to work with, and we’re excited to have many more adventures together! Cheers to your new home sweet home Frances & Harold!
