One move was better than moving everything twice

The sellers’ next home in Virginia Beach was not ready. Extra time in their Manassas house helped them avoid moving belongings into storage and then moving again.

After renovation

A move with a gap in the middle

The family had lived in the Manassas home for years. A new opportunity was taking them to Virginia Beach, but the next house was not ready. The husband was concerned about the cost and effort of moving into storage and then moving everything a second time.

Listening beyond the price

Steve spent time getting to know him and understanding the plans. They agreed on a price within the seller’s range and on additional time in the house while the next home became ready.

The logistics helped make the deal

The value of the arrangement was the possibility of making one move instead of two. For this household, a purchase that worked with the readiness of the next home mattered alongside the amount they would receive.
