Congratulations to the Voelkers!!

 

I’m so thrilled for the Voelkers and their new home!! They exemplify patience and stick-to-itiveness! And now they have keys to a sweet 50’s ranch in a great neighborhood close to their friends. 

Everyone knows that things don’t always happen on your timeline. Sometimes you’re rolling with the punches and pivoting more than expected. The Voelkers were always game to try things out and walk away when it wasn’t right. That’s especially hard to do in a seller’s market and there’s no guarantee the next one will be any easier for a buyer. But, again, patience and persistence run deep in this family, and I admire that! Buying a home is no small thing and you should only buy the house that is right for you. This is surely the home that is right for the Voelkers! Cheers!

First time home buyer in a competitive price range

Posted on by Julia Robertson

These happy campers relocated from New York less than a year ago. They just closed on the most perfect 1940’s cape cod style home in North Portland. We’ve been on a search for a home under $450k, with character, room to improve, in an up-n-coming neighborhood and close enough commute to Nike. I’d like to say it was an easy search, but this is a popular search for North Portland! We wrote multiple over asking price offers, giving desirable concessions to seller… but lucking out, as runner up or back up offer on these homes. One home in particular, they had their eye on was removed from the market for a month. Although we really wanted to write an offer on that property, the seller had to find a suitable 1031 exchange property on the east coast, while living in the Netherlands. Sound complicated? Yup! We continued to look at other homes and write a few offers in some crazy competitive situations. Sure enough this cute little cape cod came on the market and we had our opportunity again! In a split decision with multiple offers the seller chose an all cash offer, higher than ours, the seller couldn’t refuse the terms. Ugggghhh! We asked to be a back up position and seller chose not to have a back up. All the while I encouraged these two. In real estate, everything happens the way it’s supposed to. Don’t get discouraged.

Two weeks later, I received a call from the cape cod home that the buyer in first position was backing out. Before listing it back on the market, they wanted to know if this buyer was still interested… YES!!! These two were so excited to get into the home they originally wanted. May not have been the way they thought it would happen, but almost always everything happens the way it’s supposed to in real estate. Timing is everything and so is having a professional on your side.

If you’re a first time home buyer and you’re trying to navigate the home buying process- I’d love to be your guide. Call or email me anytime!
