Some real estate stories are about square footage and comps. This one’s about heart, hustle, and the kind of teamwork that turns a tight timeline into a triumph.
The Dream
So we found it (as a matter of fact, she sent the listing to me, and I had sent it to her, and we went to see it the next day!) — a lakefront home that felt like peace, possibility, and everything our client had been hoping for. But there was one catch: her offer was contingent on selling her current home. And fast.
The Clock Was Ticking
We had 2.5 weeks. That’s not just tight — it’s pretty crazy. No room for delays, no time for second-guessing. Just a clear mission: transform her home, launch the listing, and make the lakefront dream real.
The Strategy
This wasn’t just a rush job — it was a masterclass in coordination. I led the charge, bringing together trusted partners and even family members (for decluttering) to handle every detail with precision and care. Every hour counted. Every choice mattered. I even took six loads to the dump #HaveTruckWillHelp. This was truly a collaborative event!
- Declutter: The client could see that time was of the essence, so they got moving on moving things out
- Contracting: Quick touch-ups and fixes to elevate the home’s condition
- Painting & Carpeting: Fresh, neutral tones and clean finishes
- Gardening: Softened curb appeal and framed the entry beautifully
- Deep Cleaning & Staging: Intentional design and sparkle that made the home feel like a magazine spread (utilizing the client’s great taste in furniture)
- Photography & Marketing: With an amazing photographer at the ready, she shot, while I produced drone videography, to showcase the property with elegance and energy
- Pricing, Marketing & Go-To-Market Strategy: With the pricing strategy in place and the marketing finished (including custom website) we positioned the home to attract the right buyer, not just any buyer
The Collaboration
This was a team effort in every sense. Family showed up. Partners delivered on time and on budget! Everyone leaned in — not just as professionals, but as people who care. It wasn’t just about selling a house, this house — it was about helping someone step into the next chapter of their life with grace and confidence.
The Result (So Far)
- The home is on the market, beautifully presented and strategically positioned, MLS #2414255
- The client is ready to move to her lakefront dream house
- The listing is waiting for the perfect buyer—and we’re proud of every step that got us here
Final Thought
Real estate isn’t just about contracts and closings. It’s about people, timing, and trust. When the stakes are high and the timeline is tight, it’s the collaboration, the care, and the clarity of vision that make all the difference. This wasn’t just a listing — it was a moment. And I believe we nailed it.
