It's always a pleasure to sell a classic Starr home in Enfield!  This one had the good bones we're always talking about but needed some work.  Because of that, the buyers got a reasonable price (for this market) and the sellers still got more than expected.  This one was also subject to probate approval.  What does that mean?  Ask me and I'll explain!

List price: $122,000.00
Sales price: $160,000.00

As you can seen above, the sales price is still just a suggestion.  What a crazy market we're living through!  In this case my client used a fabulous program available from CT Housing called Time to Own.  She was able to get a forgivable loan from the state to cover her down payment and closing costs.  So the only money she had to pay out of pocket was the difference between the appraised price of the house and the sales price of the house.  What does that even mean?  Ask me when you see me!  Even better than the great opportunity she had using this loan program was how gorgeous this condo is.  The previous owners updated ALL the things.  Truly move-in ready with no desires for changes or upgrades.  So if you have to overpay- it feels better to overpay for something nice... Right?  Either way!  A great fit and a great find for my client, so I'm super happy for her.  Congratulations on finding the one!

What a beauty!  It was an honor and a pleasure to sell a family home with so much history!  The house was gorgeous and quirky and the property was glorious with mature perennial gardens and open, flat lawn.  There were 14 total offers and half of those were over $300K.  In that case, why was the sales price $291K?  Great question!  The highest offer is not always the best offer.  Feel free to ask me why!  I think the buyer has restoration plans here and wish him the best of luck in his new (old) home!  Congratulations to everyone!

110 Lorimer St
Springfield, MA 01151
3 bedroom, 2 bathroom
Lake views/walk to water!
$250,000.00

We started out looking for a two or three family house for this family and they ended up with a lake house!  I couldn't be happier for them!  It doesn't have the income producing opportunities of a multi-family (right now!) but it does have space for everyone, a yard for the dogs and an unexpected lake view!  And it still comfortably fit their budget!  See what an open mind and some flexibility can get you?

​A classic steel-beamed Starr ranch in a great location! This 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom ranch is the definition of "good bones". The original eat-in kitchen has been well maintained, is neutral and in great shape. The hardwood floors are dying to be uncovered and refinished. Good sized bedrooms. The full basement is unfinished and offers endless possibility. Great yard. Kloter Farms one car garage. Sunporch.

We did it!  My good friend Korey and I made the BEST TEAM EVER and escaped the End of Days room at Mission Escape Games in West Hartford.  It was challenging and fun and only a tiny bit stressful as the clock runs down.  We had a great host, thank you, Howell!  And the two of us were able to solve all the puzzles with only a couple of nudges, we did NOT have to ask for any hints!  What is the difference between a nudge and a hint?  Go play the game and find out!  

Listed for $265,000.00 and sold for $286,000.00!  Is this market crazy or what?  I loved helping these guys with this house!  A father-son team made up my seller client here with the son convincing the father to finally just sell his CT home and move to CA to be closer to his grandchildren.  Once Dad was convinced to go there was no stopping him!  He literally handed over the keys, left town and let me take care of everything.  It was beautiful!  I'm super happy to have helped these gents get this done!  Thanks for your trust Kris and Gregory!

Sadly/gladly, I'm quite good at estate sales.  Sad because when you're working on an estate sale it's because someone has died.  Glad because I get to help families work through an important transaction at a difficult time.  Selling a home is an emotional time in almost any circumstance.  When you add grief and probate court to the process you've got more layers and levels to work through.  I'm happy to be someone people trust to help them during these times.   
This beautiful house was a pleasure to sell.  The new owners are thrilled to have it and the previous owner's family felt good passing it on.
