Things Happen For a Reason.....Some buyers get a better deal the second time.

  Home Sold in Porter County-Safrin's Found the Buyers That's what we told our Buyer clients earlier this summer when they put in a bid on a Ranch home for sale that we showed them in Porter County, IN that ended up in a multiple offer situation.

Jeff showed them the comparable solds in the neighborhood and it was clear from the numbers that bidding up in this particular market to try and out do the other buyer was not in their best interest. Disappointed at first, they agreed to wait.

Low & behold, this week, we closed on another home with these same buyers. This home had double the square footage ( a Ranch with a full finished basement ) for thousands less in price than the previous home and  in the same county ...and the best part - it was totally remodeled inside & out!

We moved quickly on this move in ready home and now they are happy homeowners!

Sometimes, Things happen for a reason :)

I love success stories, like this, just wish I had more ready willing and qualified buyers.  They seem to be a scarcity around Williamsburg.  I think it be partially because of the military population here.  Many of them are renting now rather than buying.

Good professional observant move on your part Grace.  Don't you just beam with excitement knowing you were the one doing the placing?  Just think how this "save" should lead to more referrals... but more importantly, the reward of a making satisfied client is priceless.

I bet these clients will be using you for their future real estate needs and sending referrals.  Congratulations on a job well done!  Time to pat yourselves on the back and treat yourselves to .....  ice cream!

Thanks Sybil Wow - we have buyer referrals coming in left and right lately - wish you were on our team :) we'd keep you busy LOL Know any expereinced agents in NW Indiana that are looking to change brokerages?

Hi Diane - Not so sure we do any placing LOL - Just God's plan works out for the best on his timing :) We are happy that our clients stayed with us ( understood that things happen for a reason) and that the 2nd offer worked out even better for them!

Hi Irene they are really nice people and fun - love to text us and share some common interest - we can't wait to visit them after they are settled in and see their home ( and deliver a closing gift).

 

thanks to all for taking time to stop by and comment.

Sincerely,

Grace

Grace, isn't it funny how those things work out? I guess the first house wasn't meant to be, like you said, sometimes things happen for a reason!

It is funny - not every client is willing to accept this at first - but then when we kept looking and came across something better, they were thankful.

Appreciate your time Mike

Sincerely,

Grace
