Sticking Around for the Long Haul and Building Relationships

QuinnCorp strives to offer the best real estate service possible. We often say, Ed doesn’t just have clients, he makes friends for for life. This month Ed is taking over the blog to share one of his most exciting stories of a long time friend and client.
​
Mike and I have been friends for many years. During our friendship each of us have had our share of highs and lows. Yet because we can say, “We’ve been friends”, it’s our friendship that makes the lows not so low and the highs even higher. 

2017 is the year we will share a wonderful high together as I help Mike find his mountain home. Over the years I’ve helped Mike buy and sell homes down here in the flatlands. A few years ago I got to help his kids buy their first home. Helping my client’s grown kids buy their first homes is one of my greatest honors as a real estate agent. 

Mike loves the mountains and has climbed about every fourteener in Colorado. Many of his climbs are runs, not just climbs. He has incredible stamina and drive, two qualities that will flatten any fourteener he approaches.

Over the past few years, Mike has been battered with financial and health challenges and has not owned a home for quite a while. He recently learned from another great friend and trusted mortgage lender, Seth, about when he will be able to qualify to purchase a home. Over the past few years Seth has guided Mike to prepare him to be able to buy a home later this year. Both Mike and I say, “Thank you Seth.” You stuck with Mike over the years and helped his kids buy their first homes too.

Seth suggests Mike and I get on the physical hunt for his mountain house in November with the goal of Mike owning his home around Christmas. In the meantime, I put Mike on my Virtual Recon system to see listings as they come online in Conifer, Evergreen, Pine, Bailey, Jefferson and surrounding areas based on Mike’s wants and needs and Seth’s financial parameters.

Over the next 10+ months Mike will see listings that are active, under contract, and recently sold. By the time we put our hiking boots on the ground in November, Mike and I will be “loaded for bear.”

Virtual Recon is the best tool available for all buyers to confirm a home’s values before confidently writing an offer. Call/text/email me if you are interested in your personal Virtual Recon system.

Mike, my friend, I look forward to helping you find your mountain dream home. Now, promise me you won’t run up those steep driveways leaving me in the dust.
