Buying your first home is a big milestone—and in today’s fast-moving market, it can feel overwhelming. But with the right strategy, timing, and guidance, it can be done. Just ask the buyers of 204 Orchard Street in Millis.
Meet the Buyers
This young couple was referred to me by a previous client (always the best kind of compliment!). They were ready to take the leap into homeownership and had a clear vision of what they wanted:
- Three bedrooms and 1.5 baths
- A garage and spacious yard
- An open concept or multi-level layout
- A move-in-ready home in an established neighborhood
- Easy access to places to run, walk, and cycle
They also had a few must-not-haves, like no pool and no crazy commutes.
The Challenge
Like many buyers right now, they were navigating low inventory and fierce competition. They had already lost out on one property, but it turned out to be a blessing—it gave them clarity and confidence in what they really needed.
Then came 204 Orchard Street.
Updated, well-located, within budget, and with a huge yard and versatile layout, this home felt just right. We jumped into action the moment it hit the market.
The Strategy
I made sure we got in to see the home immediately—giving my clients space to think without pressure. When it became clear we were in a multiple offer situation, I stayed in close contact with the listing agent to help my clients put their best foot forward.
Our winning offer included:
✔️ A strong price just 4% over asking
✔️ A quick closing (thanks to an amazing lender partner!)
✔️ A customized home warranty to meet the buyers’ needs\
✔️ Select contingency waivers to stand out without risking their peace of mind
The Results
💥 Three offers came in—and we won!
💥 The home appraised for more than the sale price, giving them instant equity
💥 They now enjoy a beautiful open-concept home with two home office spaces, a large patio, and room to grow
And as a personal touch, the buyers thanked me with a homemade loaf of sourdough bread—hands down one of the best gifts I’ve received!
