A Conversation That Started in 2020

I first spoke with this seller about five years ago, during Covid, when she thought she might be relocating. She had seen my name come up more than once on a local community page, referred by neighbors, and she knew I had sales in her area. That move did not end up happening. The conversation continued anyway, on and off for five years. So when the right moment finally arrived, we were not starting from zero.

Preparation Sized to the Seller

A marketing plan is not a template. It is a fit. I built a customized plan that worked within her reach, prepped the home, and staged it with enhancements chosen for the way buyers shop today. Not every seller can or should spend the same amount getting to market, and the goal was never to spend the most. It was to spend where a buyer would notice.

More than 30 showings and multiple offers is what that looks like when it works.

What Buyers Responded To

A 1957 split level on nearly a third of an acre, the house runs on an easy open main level — hardwood floors, recessed lighting, a fireplace anchoring the living room, and a dining area opening straight onto the deck. The kitchen had been remodeled with stone counters, white shaker cabinetry, stainless appliances and a breakfast bar. Three bedrooms upstairs include an oversized primary, and the finished lower level adds a den that works as an office or a playroom, plus a full bath, laundry and the attached garage. The backyard is private and park-like, which in Stratfield is not a small thing.

Congratulations to My Seller

Five years is a long time to keep a conversation open, and I am grateful she did. Congratulations on a result worth the wait, and on what comes next!

I wrote about this one when it first went under contract, if you want the earlier chapter.
