When Rebecca and I first got together it all seemed so simple. I had found a place and this whole agent thing was just a formality, boy what I wrong! I had found what I thought was the perfect condo for my needs and Rebecca helped me evaluate the property find an inspector and make up an offer. In the process of making an offer and receiving documents from the seller we found that there had been a “minor leak” related to a toilet. This blew up into a much larger water issue. Rebecca worked with me and the seller’s agent to get the deal done, but as we got deeper into the deal it became clear that this was not the deal for me. Despite my heart’s being set on that condo Rebecca leveled with me and helped me to do what was the best for me. It was depressing to have that deal fall through, but with her usual exuberance Rebecca encouraged me to keep looking.
We looked at a number of condos and it became clear that they just were not comparable to the earlier one so I decided to make the step up to a house. It was a tough market and Rebecca helped me to evaluate a house, understand what the bidding for the house would be and when to make an offer and when not to. She always emphasized that she was happy to put together an offer for me, but she was also very frank when there would be a bidding up of the price and encouraged me to be sure I really wanted the home before I went in on a competitive situation.
In the end we found a perfect house. The offers were to be taken the day after we viewed the property. Rebecca asked if I really wanted it and I did. She helped me to get an inspection the next morning and put together an offer for that evening. I now have a wonderful home in Wallingford and couldn’t be happier.
