Real estate can be an emotional rollercoaster, and I’ll be honest—there are few calls I dread more than telling a client their offer wasn’t accepted. It’s heartbreaking to watch someone fall in love with a home only to have it slip away. So when we found the stunning property on Glen Summer Road and knew we were competing with a strong existing offer, I made it my mission to secure this home for my clients.
From the moment we stepped through the doors, I could tell this house was special. My client, a dear friend’s daughter, and her fiancé, Paddy, were already envisioning their future here—making memories, decorating rooms, and starting this new chapter of their lives. I wasn’t going to let them lose it without giving it everything I had.
Crafting a winning offer isn’t always about offering the highest price. Sure, numbers matter, but there’s a deeper strategy involved. I dug into the details to find out exactly what the sellers were looking for. Did they need a quick close? Were they hoping for specific terms? Sometimes, it’s the little things—like flexibility or showing an understanding of their needs—that make an offer irresistible.
Even with a solid plan, there were no guarantees. But when I got the call that their offer had been accepted, it was pure joy. We cried together, happy tears of excitement and relief. It’s a feeling that never gets old—knowing you’ve helped someone take a big step toward their dreams. And when it’s someone you’ve known since they were born, like my client, the victory feels even sweeter.
This house on Glen Summer Road is more than just a property. It’s the start of a beautiful life together for my client and her fiancé. Seeing her smile, knowing I played a part in helping her secure this next chapter, reminds me why I love what I do. Real estate isn’t just about contracts or negotiations—it’s about people, relationships, and the privilege of being part of their story.
I’m so excited for what’s ahead for these two, and I can’t wait to see how they make this home their own. Moments like these are what make all the hard work worth it.
