SOLD!!!!
This one happened quickly and was fun. These buyers were referred to me by another client who had JUST purchased a house.
When we discussed what they were looking for, they sent me a picture of this listing for inspiration. It happened to be under contract, but since I knew the agent running that team, I decided to make a call just in case.
Turns out that the buyer had gotten cold feet and it was about to go back on the market, but they already had another party interested and submitting a backup offer.
After seeing it in person, it was exactly what they were looking for. These folks were a little hesitant to pull the trigger, since we'd only really looked at this house, but after we spoke at length, we all decided that this house DID work well for them and that if we kept looking, it would be looking to hope to find another home that fits as well as this one did. So we pulled the trigger, put our best foot forward on the offer and got the house.
In addition to getting the house because they didn't waste time, they also locked in their rate a full point under where they're sitting today. Had they waited even two weeks to keep looking, the rate jumps would have left us looking in a completely different price point.
It's important never to rush your decision when looking for the right house for you. But it's also important to not fall into "the grass is greener" mindset. When you find it...move on it.
These buyers saved thousands by doing so.
And it also appraised for more than they bought it for...so that was cool too.
