Ema: Newest Lakewood Townhome House-Hacker

Ema was referred to me by my past clients, Julie and Sharee. Ema reached out after finding me on Instagram, and we quickly set up a consultation. From the start, I absolutely adored Ema and was so excited to work with her!

She connected with a few of my preferred lenders and ultimately chose Cher Cruz with Guild Mortgage. After a couple of weeks of home searching, we found a complex that checked all of Ema's boxes. We wrote an offer on one of the units, but unfortunately, the seller was a little too stubborn on price, and we weren’t able to come to an agreement.

Just a few days later, though, a nearly identical unit in the same complex hit the market—only this one was completely remodeled and better priced!

Ema saw the opportunity and jumped on it. Within 24 hours, we were under contract on this incredible property—well below what it’s worth! We negotiated $9,000 in seller concessions for a rate buydown, got additional items covered at inspection, AND the property even appraised above the contract price!

Not only does Ema plan to move into the home, but she also intends to house-hack it!

I couldn’t be more thrilled for my savvy buyer and her amazing first purchase. Ema, thank you so much for your trust throughout this process. I absolutely loved working with you and getting to meet your dad. Cheers to this exciting new chapter—I can’t wait to see what’s next for you!
