Property Description
CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR BUYERS! There is always a story behind every home, and this one is particularly special: It is a fallacy that Price is King and the highest price always wins! It happens often...BUT NOT ALWAYS with great presentation and negotiation!
Our dear buyers have a 30 year history and family roots in San Mateo. We made an offer on a perfect home for them in a perfect neighborhood, just a few blocks from Beresford Park where they grew up. We knew it would be competitive and a probably a long reach as we were up against 8 other offers! They wrote a heart-felt, honest letter - one of those letters that gives you goosebumps. I also wrote a letter on their behalf to share their love of the home. I presented their offer in person (I was the only one! - the rest of the offers were emailed in!), their lender connected ahead of time on their behalf, and most importantly, WE SET THE INTENTION TO WIN!
Our clients offer was not the highest - in fact, we believe we were only the fourth highest out of 8 offers. And of course, there was an ominous all cash offer in the lead. The home has had just one owner since 1951, one family. In a beautiful display of connection, the sellers fell in adoration with my clients and decided to leave some money on the table and sell to my clients anyway! Of course the negotiation and presentation helped to convince them they were committed and the deal would close swiftly and easily.
Both the buyers and the sellers were grateful that it worked out! I love a good win-win! 
The right home always finds the right buyer, and this one was meant to be!
