After selling my old house, we moved into an airbnb while househunting but I was not expecting the post-COVID-shutdown real estate market to have such high pent-up demand! With so much competition, it was difficult at times to get showing appointments but Cathy was up at midnight to secure them. We toured so many homes together and made several offers that were outbid, often by a cash buyer paying $100K more. I was really starting to get discouraged because my whole goal for 2021 was to find a new house and get moved and settled before my son started school in mid-August. Cathy had her eyes peeled for me and called me on a Friday afternoon to tell me that a house had just gone on the market that she thought I would want to see because it met most of my criteria and was close to the school. We toured it that day, submitted an offer that evening, and it was accepted on Sunday! All deadlines were met like clockwork and we closed 3 weeks later! I would not have achieved my 2021 goal if it had not been for Cathy!
