Client Background
As the Marketing Coordinator for the Ballesteros Real Estate Group, Maddi has spent years behind the scenes, crafting stories, sharing client wins, and celebrating homeownership milestones. But this year, the story became personal when Andrea, her boss and trusted realtor, helped Maddi, her husband Sean, and their newborn daughter purchase their very first home.
The Challenge
Navigating a competitive market as first-time homebuyers is no small feat, especially when juggling a new baby and the emotional weight of such a life-changing investment. To add to the complexity, the home had been on the market for over a month, a red flag in an otherwise fast-moving market.
Curious but cautious, the buyers discovered the property had been in probate. Remarkably, just as they inquired, the probate was finalized and the home was released to a family member, making it available for purchase. The timing couldn’t have been more perfect, but the window was narrow, and it required swift, strategic action.
Our Approach
Andrea stepped in with confidence and care, guiding Maddi and her family every step of the way. Drawing on her knowledge of probate transactions and years of advocacy for clients in fast-paced markets, Andrea positioned the family as strong, serious buyers.
They ended up being the only offer. With strategic negotiation, Andrea and Rosie were able to secure a credit toward closing costs, which was a welcomed surprise for first-time buyers. Escrow was smooth, quick, and completely seamless, wrapping in just 30 days.
Throughout the process, Andrea and Rosie were more than agents. They were trusted advocates and emotional anchors, making sure Maddi and her family felt seen, supported, and celebrated every step of the way.
Outcome
Despite the market's competitive nature, Maddi and Sean were able to secure a home that felt like it was meant for them. It was all at the right time and without a single setback. With no competing offers and expert negotiation, the sale moved forward swiftly and stress-free.
The real win wasn’t just in the paperwork, it was in the peace, gratitude, and joy that followed. Walking into their new home, holding their baby girl, the family stepped into the next chapter with full hearts.
Conclusion
This sale reminds us that even in a highly competitive market, the right home at the right time is possible, with the right team by your side. For Andrea and the Ballesteros Group, this wasn’t just a transaction. It was a deeply personal opportunity to serve someone who has long been part of the team.
