Home Story · Edwards · Fredericksburg
The retirement move could happen without a major repair project
The owners wanted to retire to Florida, but their home needed extensive repairs and cleanout. Steve agreed on a price that met their goal and bought the house as it stood.
After renovation
Years of work had accumulated
The family was preparing to retire and move to Florida. Their Fredericksburg home had not been maintained for years. Some rooms were filled with belongings, others could not be used, and the bathrooms had mold problems.
An honest conversation about condition
The sellers understood that the house needed substantial work and did not want to do it themselves. They had a clear idea of the price they wanted. Steve considered both the property and the project ahead and reached that number.
Moving on without doing the work first
The direct sale allowed the family to leave the renovation with Steve’s team and concentrate on retirement. A realistic conversation about the condition and price helped both sides reach a workable agreement.
