Room to move forward during a family transition

One family member had moved out while another still needed time to find a home. The sale included additional time to make that transition.

After renovation

Two people moving on different schedules

The owners were going through a separation. One had already found another place, while the other was still living in the basement. The newer house needed relatively little work, but the move-out arrangements mattered.

Making space for the move

Steve worked with the household’s situation and provided additional time for the remaining occupant to find somewhere to go. The purchase could move forward without pretending that everyone’s next step was ready on the same day.

A useful next chapter for the house

After the purchase, the team made improvements to add value, including work in the basement. For the sellers, the important result was an agreement that accommodated the person still living there and allowed the sale to happen.
