New Home/Newlyweds
I seriously LOVE selling homes!! Regardless if you have bought a hundred homes or if this is your first home, I want to find you a home!
Call Janet Gummelt, Realtor, at 903-875-4164. I will find you a home!
There is absolutely nothing more rewarding to this Realtor to show buyers numerous houses, do endless internet searching, and ultimately finding your buyers the perfect home. NO, I am not being sarcastic! Maybe it is my tenacity, but it is a true challenge to find the perfect fit for my home buyers and seeing the sparkle in their eyes and love in their hearts when we finally find THE PERFECT HOUSE. The reward for me is indescribable.
The Newlyweds
My last buyers were newlyweds and very young. They had very specific wants; but of course, being newlyweds and very young, they also had a smaller budget than more experienced buyers may have. Again, they are young and first time home buyers so my previous 30 year career in education came in very handy with these clients.
We started back in October looking at homes. I think we looked at 10 homes on our first appointment!!! I was careful to take note of what this sweet couple liked and didn’t like. It soon became very clear they were not going to be happy with anything less than move in ready. Again, that is just a little difficult on a newlywed budget. But, luckily we have a builder that has been working in our community and is building some beautiful homes at an economical price. We were fortunate to get a contract on one that was still under construction. My newlyweds actually got to choose some of the finishes that were going into their lovely new home.
Of course, building often takes longer than anticipated. There were a few other hurdles to overcome – inspections, appraisals, and the normal Realtor woes. But, eventually, we worked through all of it.
The Closing
I truly don’t think I have ever seen more excited or nervous buyers. Closing day took place yesterday and my little newlyweds were so excited. The mountains of paperwork didn’t even dull their enthusiasm! After closing, we went to the home and took pictures. What a joy to be a part of this milestone with this sweet couple!
I seriously LOVE my job!!!
