How this sale came together
There’s a story behind every sale and this one is a doozy. After the seller contacted me in the summer, I brought over my go to design consultant and stager who worked tirelessly with the seller to get the space looking picture perfect. Next we did the photos and videos. Then an issue came up with a family member who was also on title. Months went by of them working out terms on which the home could/would be sold. Eventually everyone got on the same page and I beat out another agent who was brought in by the other family as their choice to market the home. Finally we launched the listing and the market went bananas. My phone blew up and we had three offers so fast it would make your head spin. In the end, we sold above the asking price to a wonderful couple who I’m sure will be very happy in their new home. And better still, the seller who brought me in gets to close this chapter and open a new one.

What my clients said
“Josh was really great real estate agent to work with to sell our dad's house. He puts a lot of extra effort into creating good photos and video to up a listing. He was also very available and easy to work with.”
