Coast to Coast, Under Agreement in 3 Days: A Relocation Success Story
Smart Planning and Expert Guidance Made It Happen
The Buyer's Goal
A professional family relocating from California on a tight timeline. With their home already under agreement on the West Coast, they needed to find their new Massachusetts home—fast.
They were looking for a newer 4-bedroom home with space to host family, in a friendly neighborhood community, within commuting distance to Boston. Their wishlist? Updated finishes, modern layout, and no old homes.
The Challenge
Like many buyers in today's market, they faced low inventory and fast-moving listings. But unlike most, they were working against a ticking clock—with only a short window to secure a home before their cross-country move.
The Strategy
I guided them through every step—starting with honest conversations about pricing, lender pre-approval, and offer strategy. We used their limited house-hunting trip to the fullest by creating a three-day buyer tour, packed with showings and decision-making checkpoints. I made sure they felt informed and confident, providing strategic advice on timing and contingencies.
The Result
They fell in love with a gorgeous young colonial at 11 Northern Spy, Franklin—the very first home they toured. Although there was a competitive Tuesday offer deadline, we continued touring homes through Monday and Tuesday to ensure they felt certain. After evaluating options, they circled back to their favorite.
With strong communication between myself, the listing agent, and their lender, we crafted a clean, compelling offer. Ultimately, they beat out several competing bids while still feeling comfortable and confident in their decision.
What the clients had to say...
"Moving from California to the Greater Boston area was no small feat, but we’re incredibly grateful we had Alison by our side. She knows the area inside and out, and from day one, she was responsive, kind, and truly dedicated. No matter the question or concern, she was just a text or call away, always ready to help.
Alison went above and beyond—following up on every detail (even the ones we didn’t know we should be thinking about!) and making the entire process so much smoother. She even shared local recommendations, like great bakeries, which made us feel at home right away.
If you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable, respectful, punctual, and genuinely cares about helping you find the right home, I hope you’re lucky enough to work with Alison. She made a big transition feel manageable and even enjoyable."
