This is my client Jillian (those are my kids). She is an amazing person, as well as a friend and client of mine. We’ve only known each other for a short time. Less than a year or so now. We had a conversation about patient care (she’s an RN) and months later she asked me to sell her condo. I went to her condo and met her boyfriend, now her fiancé, evaluated the place, gave her my recommendations and opinions and we signed a contract soon after. From that point on we’ve had lots of wine and cheese as well as Ranier’s and Exile’s (“if you don’t know Exile you should” per Jillian) in the backyard with friends and family. Many conversations about financial goals, money, and the future. She has taken my advice and I’ve taken hers. I sold her condo and we moved on to searching for a new home for her life to come. She is now engaged and is planning her down-to-earth midwestern wedding.
We found a home. Actually two homes. The first one we pulled out of due to the inspection and recommended repairs that were just too overwhelming. But this last one was different! Instantly, Jillian was in awe. She loved it. Her family loved it. Her fiancé loved it. I loved it. My kids loved it. We made an offer and we were under contract. Inspections went great and she is moving in this week. What’s better is that she is moving just 5 minutes away. She’s become like a family member to us. My kids ask about her all of the time, she spends time with them, and we watch out for each other.
I can’t believe this is my job! I get to help people I care about and change their lives.
