Mike called me about a house on Horseshoe Lake in Northfield Township. He asked if I was available to show the home. I said, \u201cof course\u201d, arranged the showing for the following evening and met Mike and his girlfriend, Shannon, at the house. The house was listed two days earlier and was being offered as a short sale. The house looked great, and it was priced well. I knew there would be competition when I saw the twelve Realtor business cards on the counter.<\/p>\n
When we met at the house, Mike mentioned that they were impressed with how quickly I had called them back, and especially happy that I could meet them in the evening. I jokingly told him that I was available whenever people who need to buy a house are, and since they have jobs, most are looking at houses after work or on the weekend. They said they had looked at a few houses with another agent (one who has quite a bit of experience), but they were put off, because she was never willing to meet them during the evening, only during the day. I was flabbergasted! Really?<\/p>\n
Mike and Shannon liked the house and wanted to write an offer. I contacted the listing agent to see if there were any other offers, and there were already four others. We submitted a good bid, and the agent called for everyone\u2019s highest and best offer by 5:00PM the next day. Mike & Shannon didn\u2019t like the house enough to change their offer, and they didn\u2019t get the house.<\/p>\n
We looked at a few other homes, and they chose the one they liked the best in a neighborhood with some of the nicest people I have ever met. I negotiated a great deal with the bank who owned the house, and the deal was done. Mike and Shannon couldn\u2019t be happier with their choice of homes or Realtor. I have friends and clients for life. I have even helped some members of their family sell their home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
