My clients Duane and Lauren, from San Diego, are now the proud Grandparents to two adorable kiddos, who are getting bigger every day. Duane’s son and his family reside here in Portland and my clients were feeling like they wanted a spot of their own to land when they make their frequent trips north to see family and experience Portland.
Between Duane’s background as a General Contractor and Lauren’s keen eye for design and taste, they knew exactly what they were looking for, it was just a matter of finding it.
Because of the geography, I ended up doing many video tours and FaceTime chats with my clients, which made for an interesting home search process! I did a tour one day and Duane and Lauren were ready to pull the trigger on the amazing custom-built home in Southwest Portland.
We aggressively negotiated the price down from the beginning and were able to get a credit for repairs during the inspection process (which is not the easiest thing to do in today’s market!). Now they are the proud owners of an unbelievable home (that woodwork!!) in a great neighborhood. The purchase of this home will hopefully result in the family getting to see each other so much more.
Congratulations on the new place, Duane and Lauren! I can’t wait to see the personal touches you put on your home!
