Jazzin’ Into A New Beginning

Posted on by Living Room Realty

Jackie had been thinking of a new start and beginning life in Portland. She is an incredibly talented artist and was looking for a space to help her flourish since she now had the opportunity to work remotely.  Check out Jackie’s super catchy music video here:

Life out of state was changing and the price of a small condo was equivalent to a decent sized home in inner Portland.  So, she decided to take the plunge and see what was out here while looking at homes virtually from out of state.  Thankfully she had her trusted father, the ever so knowledgeable Chris, on the ground viewing homes for her.  That’s where we intersected with them on Jackie’s journey.

They called us to set up a showing for a home they were interested in and we were able to see from the get-go that we would be a good fit in working together to accomplish Jackie’s goals. We thought the relationship Jackie and her father Chris was so beautiful. She was trusting in him so much to be her feet and eyes on the ground.  Jason as a father found this so special, because he would hope our daughters would give him the same trust one day.

Then we found the home that started to make Jackie excited about the potential of what she could turn it into. A classic Portland home in inner SE Portland.  It had room to spread out to make her music and yoga studio. Two things that brought so much joy to both Jackie and Chris. Plus they would finally be in the same city together.  In addition there was a separate living quarters which would help give her income for a possible short/long term rental.

So, we went to work crafting an offer that the seller couldn’t refuse. We were so excited to let Jackie and Chris know that her offer was accepted! Now it was time to look into the nitty gritty of what needed to be fixed.  Jason went to work scheduling inspections and lining up contractors to give bids on the big ticket items that came up which were exceeding the allowable credit that her lender could accept. So, we needed to get creative in how we tackled what items needed to be taken care of immediately and which ones could wait.

 

Soon we had a solution that Jackie and Chris felt good about and we went to the seller with their terms.  After a bit of back and forth we arrived at an agreement and the work that needed to be done was scheduled and Jackie was compensated for the rest that she would be taking on herself down the line.

Throughout the journey we were so grateful to have Chris on the ground with us making sure that Jackie was well taken care of. Congratulations Jackie on your new home sweet home! And thank you so much Chris for all your help along this journey.

 

 

Hollywood Here I Come!

Wow. This truly stunning home located in Hollywood/Grant Park has undergone a complete designer remodel that successfully preserved it’s beauty as a 1915 bungalow. The home is full of  light filled spaces that feel warm and comfortable, even on the rainiest of days. Your eye will be drawn to the custom cabinets and lighting, restored wood windows, restored hardware, and beautiful hardwood floors. Behind the scenes new plumbing, sewer, wiring and electrical panel, water main, HVAC system, radon system, and earthquake retrofit will keep your mind at ease! And just when you thought it couldn’t get better you’ll find the separate living space in the basement with it’s own laundry, full bath and private entrance.

I love working with our sellers to make their home shine when it’s time to list… it’s kind of my thing. 🖤
