The Meydenbauer – In Old Town Bellevue, Washington

Purchased: $539,000

I received a phone call from my client, asking me to help find for her the perfect condominium. She wanted something beautiful, close in, livable, with space for guests and something that was a sound financial investment for her property portfolio. I asked her some very specific questions and then did a target specific search based on only the things I knew she loved. I then took her out on a tour the very same day, to view in person what I had hand selected for her.

We looked at 3 properties that day, and she fell in love with The Meydenbaur property the minute we entered. It is unique, exquisite, perfectly placed, walkable and a very sound investment.

Being a savvy businesswoman, she had some very poignant questions, and wanted to see some comparable properties to ensure this was a good fit for her. She also wanted to compare some of the financial investment aspects of this purchase, to others that may be similar investments.

I did a second search for her that evening, finding a few properties that would give her the best idea of what her money could buy and how it would bring her a good rate of return overall. We went to see those properties the next morning.

After viewing all of these properties, she decided to go with the one she loved originally. It was not only the most beautiful, but a very sound investment.

I was able to put together a strong offer for her and the property was successfully purchased that very same day! It closed early, with absolutely no problems.

If this is the kind of thing you would like to experience with your next property purchase, than I am your perfect agent.

Give me a call and let me find the perfect property for your next investment or family home.

I deliver results. Quickly, effectively, and precisely. Every single time.

Winter Home-Buying Smart, Experts Say…..

Posted on December 19, 2013 by Erin in Real Estate Market Data

Holidays, cold weather and vacation time create a vacuum of inactivity in the U.S. real estate market, which is why experts recommend picking up a bargain during this time if at all possible. People selling during this time are obviously motivated, which may mean better prices. Experts say this is particularly true this year, because home prices and mortgage interest rates are expected to climb before the spring selling season begins. Buyers should remember that homes may not show well in winter and should accommodate for that when evaluating a potential purchase. For more on this continue reading the following article from TheStreet.
