SOLD | Private Hilltop Paradise

Yeah! Congrats to our sellers! They recently closed on the sale of their amazing piece of paradise in Marshall having already relocated to another cool property on the French Broad River in Marshall. We helped them acquire both. It has been an amazing journey helping these Texas/Colorado folks find their permanent nest in our area over the past couple of years during the pandemic. It was a complex time searching for properties that were equally complex. Together, we all remained patient and determined. A special thanks to the buyer’s agent for all of her work as well. Cheers and Happy Holidays!

CLOSED | 38 Stratford Road

Yeah! Congrats to our happy buyers. These buyers moved from Asheville to out-of-state during the pandemic and were now anxious to return home to Lakeview Park. From a distance, we were able to help them view this amazing home the day it went on the market and made them feel comfortable making an offer. The process was quick and competitive, but they boldly won out in the end. And speaking of quick, we had two weeks from the contract to close to get all their inspections done and negotiate repairs. It all worked out seamlessly thanks to a team effort from both sides. Thank you, Heidi!

And a special thanks to Vicki for referring us to these buyers. It makes us feel special when our friends refer their friends to us. Keep them coming!

Here is what the buyer’s shared about us. Living in Seattle and trying to buy a home in Asheville is challenging. We determined early on that we would probably not be able to see the home in person but would need to rely on someone we could trust to do that for us. A close friend recommended Troy and Kelly. And that made all the difference. They previewed homes for us and when we found one that we liked they helped us make the decision to present an offer (in absentia). It was stressful not being able to see the home before making an offer. It was a beautiful home in a great neighborhood and had multiple offers days after it was listed. They helped us navigate through that process and our final offer was accepted. They were great and we cannot recommend them highly enough.
