I bet some of you think that's B.S. when I end a blog or email, or YouTube, etc. with the phrase 'Happy to Help".
Well, a young gal will attest to the truth in that statement from our interaction yesterday!
Almost 10 years ago a couple was referred to me to purchase a home in Santa Clarita. Super nice couple with 2 kids if I'm not mistaken. We looked at a few, then her father got involved and unbeknownst to them purchased a home he saw at an open house for cash so they would have a home!
I was genuinely happy for them, and have stayed in touch ever since. Sharing my new listings, YouTubes, Blog posts, holiday cards, etc. Why you ask? Because you never know when someone is going to need your help.
Yesterday was that day.
She literally said "I didn't know who to reach out to!"
But, she thought of me as I'd stayed in touch and offered to help, always.
I read the lengthy email, from my car, and popped her a text right away that I would call her after my next appointment.
A couple hours later I gave her a call. Asked her a few questions, gave her a few suggestions. I could tell she was taking notes of everything I mentioned. She had some options, but had lots to discuss with all parties involved.
And, you know what? It wasn't about SELLING their home. I helped this family because I could. Because I knew more than they did from my Real Estate experience. I strongly suggested they contact a real estate attorney, but to discuss with family first.
I truly am 'Always Happy to Help'. Life is better when you help others.
