Turning Lemons Into Lemonade!

I just closed on a purchase for buyers at the Infinity, one of the best luxury condo developments that sits near the edge of the Embarcadero in SF. What is unusual about the nice buyers I represented is that sadly they lost their home in the Santa Rosa fire. A loss like this is tremendous – all of those cherished mementos like family photos, furnishings, art and so much more up in flames. It is not an easy thing to get over. However, this was not going to stop them from moving forward with their lives.

They decided to move their primary residence to San Francisco and hired me to help them find a home. After touring a number of properties, they walked into a modern luxurious condo on the 40th floor of the Infinity with city and water views. Watching them walk through this unit I could immediately tell that this was “the one.” With their insurance proceeds and other funds, they made a winning offer after we negotiated close to $100,000 off of the list price. They moved in the weekend after they closed and are thrilled with their new home. Now that’s turning lemons into lemonade!!
