Time to find the next home, with a way to share a stronger resale

The retiring sellers had not found their next house. Steve offered flexible timing and an additional payment if the eventual resale exceeded an agreed threshold.

Ready to retire, still choosing where to live

The Manassas homeowners wanted to move but had not yet found their next property. A referral brought them to Steve. Knowing they did not have to rush into a fixed near-term settlement eased an important concern.

Making room for timing and price

Steve was willing to work with a longer or shorter schedule. The parties also had different views of the home’s value, so they agreed on a purchase price with a share of additional proceeds if the later resale exceeded an agreed amount.

The move came together sooner than expected

About two weeks after contracting, the sellers found a home they liked and moved ahead with buying it. They took the belongings they wanted and left the rest as agreed. When Steve later resold the property, the agreed calculation produced an additional payment to them.
