Several years ago, we helped our dear friend Mayte buy her first home. Six years later, we had the joy of helping her sell it for a great profit and then guiding her family into their next dream home.
Over the years, we’ve celebrated milestones together, stayed in touch, and even joined them for the opening of their new restaurant “Mayan Monkey Brewing” — a friendship that means a lot to us.
So, when Mayte learned that her friends Fiona and Miguel were thinking about selling their condo to move into a bigger place, she immediately thought of us. Fiona and Miguel had worked with other agents in the past but never felt they got the attention or strategy they truly needed — so when we spoke for the first time (while we were actually in Colombia visiting family!), they said they’d wait for us to return because they wanted to work with us.
Once we came back, we met at their home, reviewed their situation, and designed a personalized pricing and marketing strategy that made sense for their goals.
We prepared every detail — professional photography, a full marketing campaign, coming soon exposure, and promotional materials — all designed to attract qualified buyers from day one.
When the condo hit the market, the response was immediate. We had several showings, a busy open house, and the first offer came in right after — a clean offer that met their goals perfectly.
We helped Fiona and Miguel to review it carefully, understanding every step, and then decided to move forward with confidence.
But then came an unexpected challenge. During the loan process, the buyer’s lender discovered that the condo subdivision was temporarily on Fannie Mae’s “do not lend” list due to a retaining wall repair. The unit itself was perfectly fine — the issue was with the community, and it wasn’t disclosed in the condo resale package.
We immediately contacted the property manager, confirmed the situation, and obtained documentation explaining that the wall wasn’t in critical condition and that the community was already working on it. Despite the challenge, we kept everyone informed, stayed proactive, and reassured both parties through the process.
The great news? Because of the strong relationship and trust we built throughout the transaction, the buyer decided to continue — switching from a conventional loan to an FHA loan, allowing us to move forward without losing momentum. The sellers agreed to a small contribution to make the switch possible, and within days, we were back on track.
The appraisal came in at value, the loan was approved, and we closed right on time. Even with all the curveballs, Fiona and Miguel achieved exactly what they wanted — selling their condo quickly, at a strong price, and with peace of mind.
Fiona shared a heartfelt video testimonial at closing, expressing her gratitude to Mayte for referring her and to us for guiding them every step of the way. Now, we’re thrilled to be helping them begin the next chapter — finding their new dream home.
Every transaction tells a story, and this one is a perfect example of what trust, teamwork, and perseverance can accomplish.
✨ Congratulations, Fiona and Miguel — we’re so happy for you!
