A Tale of Two Closings

People really do BUY and SELL real estate in the winter! We do our best to ensure that all of our clients have exceptional experiences and two recent Renee Hillman clients are no exception to the rule:

Racine Drive in Durham

This couple got my name from another client through their alumni association – thank you SO much for the referrals! They were relocating from Northern Virginia to Durham and after looking at home options, we narrowed the search down to eight listings in particular. The first one we went to – this awesome ranch home pictured above – is the one they bought! We accomplished their housing needs in less than four hours. (Talk about efficient!) We ended up in a multiple offer scenario and I’m happy to say we won!

A special thanks to this great couple for the kind review they also provided: “Renee is absolutely amazing! My spouse and I are relocating to the Triangle from DC and Renee made this process so easy. She has so many great connections and tools to help first time home buyers. We always felt so comfortable and looked after – she is so great at keeping you on-target and in-the-know. You can not go wrong working with Renee!! – can you tell we think she’s the greatest!?!“

Berkeley Springs Drive in Raleigh

I cannot tell you how much it thrills me to share that this was a repeat client who made a profit on selling her townhome after only living there for a year and a half! We love helping our clients reach their real estate goals and are always excited to welcome back returning clients.

Happy December, everyone! If you’re considering buying or selling in the new year, please give me a call or email to discuss your goals and how our team can help you!

Movin, Shakin & Rock n Rollin!

So what can I say, I’ve been a little busy this month! Not only did I get the great news last week that RE/MAX One Realty has amazing statistics – we are top of the class in our area across all firms for number of listings per agent, number of closings per agent, shortest time on market, largest market share, etc. I can’t complain either. My clients are the best at referring me to others which is one of the greatest compliments I can receive. Here is a recap for the month of May/June…

Closed:

102 Buckhaven Court, Apex, NC – SOLD in 3 days! A hard to find Abbington modified ranch that was move in ready. These sellers worked hard preparing their home for the market.

95 Huntington Drive, Pittsboro, NC – SOLD to satisfied new home buyers. We worked together almost a year before finding a perfect horse property for them!

1606 Township Circle, Raleigh, NC – SOLD this to a buyer that is moving to be closer to her family. This was a foreclosure & purchased sight unseen – hope she loves it J Here is what Nikki had to say: “Renee represented me in the purchase of a Raleigh town home. The transaction was complicated as I made the purchase sight unseen, and the property was a foreclosure. Renee smoothed out all the bumps in the road. It was as painless a process as any real estate purchase could be.”

3804 Olympia Drive, Raleigh, NC – SOLD to happy new buyers loving their new model home!

6805 Grimaldi Court, Raleigh, NC – SOLD to as they call themselves new townies! Relocated fromWilmington,NC. Here is what my clients had to say: “We highly recommend Renee. She took the time to research homes for us, run us all over town looking at homes, and spent the time to really check out each home we went into. Her knowledge of construction was invaluable. She was a huge advocate for us throughout the entire process. When I am ready to sell the house she sold us, I will definitely use her again!”

8 Fielding Court, Durham, NC – SOLD in 26 days! These sellers did a great job staging & that is what helped us get this home under contract quickly.

1119 Braemar Court, Cary, NC – SOLD in 47 days! This wasn’t your grandmothers ranch, it was chic, fun & contemporary.
687 Hawthorne Place, Creedmoor, NC – SOLD to a great family. This community is awesome, one of the few that actually has community amenities and just over the Wake Co. line.

7625 Ladora Drive, Willow Springs, NC – SOLD to the Jones’, they custom built this home & are adjusting well to country living.
