Weekend made!  Very early this morning, I received notice that my Buyers BEAT out the competition and contracted this handsome historic U City two-story...

Built in 1925, this gorgeous home is in the popular Ames Place subdivision, nestled between the Loop and Washington University.  The neighboring Forest Park? Its playground!  It was a love match the second my clients walked in the door, so I was thrilled that our negotiation strategies paid off against the competition.

This beauty closes next month!  A super warm congratulations and THANK YOU to the B/R family.

CLOSED: #2347 Goodale Avenue in 63114

Hello, Wednesday...

...adorable Goodale closed escrow this morning! A quick seamless sale, a super lucky Buyer, and one very appreciative Carrie for the wonderful K family’s trust and faith in me.  A sincere congratulations and thank you to my Sellers, the K Family.

In St. Louis and ready to make a move? The 2020 market is in FULL-EFFECT!  My listings are selling as fast as I can get them on the MLS,  friends.  This is the year!  Let's connect...

Under Contract: #2347 Goodale Avenue in 63114

Wow, it has been a busy week for me!  As a Midwest Realtor enters 1st quarter, you never know what you are going to get as our weather is unpredictable and the Buyer pool can take several weeks to reengage after the holidays.  I always encourage Sellers to proceed with caution in January.

Not in 2020!  This is my second listing this week to sell within days.  Gorgeous Goodale was "no show" until Sunday morning, and after an exciting whirlwind 72 hours of showings and negotiation... SOLD!  Yippee! 

Obviously, this home is lovely and practically sells itself, but my clients are the true testament to this fast and profitable turnover.  I sold the K family this home just a few years ago and it was beautiful then, but their improvements took it to the next level.  Thank you for your trust, friendship, and repeat business, K family.  

People tend to come into your life in funny ways, and this holds very true in my industry.  I met the K family while sitting a very quiet open house almost 2 decades ago and we bonded immediately.  This is the 4th time that I have had the privilege to represent them over the last 18+ years of my career, and their loyalty means the world to me. Wonderful people, great friends, contagious postive energy that I so very much appreciate!

Congrats to the K duo... their 1948 Cape Cod closes escrow in a month.
