The Double Attached Dream

I like to name my buyers home searches and theirs was "The double attached dream."

Truth be told they were pretty darn close to being priced out of their double attached dream. Last year it was doable on their budget, this year things were getting tight, it was borderline time to look for a detached garage instead. This house came up and it checked all the boxes including the garage... and it was absolutely perfect. The best part... we were going to be twins! I have the exact same house!

It was offers date. We wrote. We got the call... "13 other offers". Crap. I said, "you're gonna have to go all in, and even with all in I don't know if that is enough to clinch it" They agreed in every way, that we would have to go all in, and that we probably wouldn't get it. Jeffry had written an incredibly heartfelt letter. I read it before submitting it and damn near started crying. This couple had been through so much and I kept learning little bits around every corner I turned with them.

I was in the middle of presenting offers on another home when my phone rang. I answered fully expecting a "thank you for your offer but we have chosen another"... except it was ..." congratulations to you and your buyer we have chosen your offer!" Wait... what???? We got it?? Holy Crap!

I called them and said, "guess what, we get to be twins!" They were so shocked and non-responsive that I sat there going "oh crap, they didn't really want it, crap crap crap, how do I get them out of this????" After it fully sunk in that the house we had written off as a loss had been won they sent me a picture of their smiles.

Congratulations on your new home! I am incredibly happy for you! This process has been so easy and amazing and you deserve every last bit of that awesomeness.
