Five years ago Nina
Alling and her family arrived in Phoenix and what an impact they all have
made on my life and that of my children. Nina, Chloe, Abbie and Audrey are off
on a new adventure to Pennsylvania and we will miss you dearly. Thank you for
the privilege of selling your home to a new family that can begin their own
adventures. We will see you soon when we visit Pennsylvania – Hershey Park here
we come!
Congratulations to Frank
& Maureen Pena on the purchase of their new home in Scottsdale. Thank
you to Jim Keeley for the referral, as I now have new clients and good friends.
I have truly enjoyed working with the Penas and now it’s time to get their home
on Celtic sold! It has been a pleasure!
Drs. Matt Breite and Christine
Giesing are in the midst of a whirlwind of fun. Both just graduated – Matt
from medical school and Christine from pharmacy school. They are off to get
married and honeymoon before relocating to the Valley of the Sun where Matt
will be a resident at Mayo Hospital. It was a pleasure working with Matt and
his dad to find a new home for the newlyweds! Congrats and we look forward to
having you here in Phoenix.
I met Michael Lehrer at
the very end of an open house.
Michael is a recent medical school graduate and incoming resident for Mayo
Hospital. When he discovered that my business is primarily with doctors, and that
I have great connections for Physician Loans, we started looking for a condo.
After just a few weeks, Michael purchased a great home that he is now
remodeling in time for his residency to start. I cannot wait to see the finished
product!
Thank you Russel Gundlach & Angel Chambers for referring
Taylor and Patrick Harberd. We moved
quickly to get their home on the market as Patrick’s job with Fender required
that they move fast. Just as we were getting ready to list on MLS, we found out
Alexis MacDonald matched for residency at Dignity Health. We knew Alexis would
love this house and she did! Taylor and Patrick’s home sold to Alexis and they
were able to lease the home back until they moved to Los Angeles. So sad to see
them go, but very excited for Taylor and Patrick to start their new life.
Congrats to Dr.
Camila and Robert Maestas who recently purchased a beautiful home near
South Mountain. Robert and Camila are relocating here from Albuquerque for
Camila’s residency at Banner University Medical Center in downtown Phoenix.
They had to extend their stay because the houses they liked were selling fast
but they moved quickly and closed on a beautiful home that appraised slightly
above purchase price – rare in today’s market! Congratulations and I look
forward to having them near downtown – I see more chocolate chip cookies in
their future!
Congratulations to my very good friend Jennifer Rubin who sold her home twice after it fell out of escrow
with another buyer. Jennifer is newly married and she and her son, Eric, have
moved into a beautiful home in North Scottsdale with her husband, Andrew Wells.
Thanks to Jen for the trust she placed in me. I am so happy for her and so
excited to watch her move into the next chapter of her life! Mazel Tov!
What a joy and privilege it has been this spring to work
with long-time friends and clients! Mark
& Christy Battiato have been searching for the right home in Phoenix
for three years and this year the perfect house popped up: right location,
right size, right price, beautiful finishes, many bonus features, and a
mountain view! So nice to have them back in the Valley with family after a
17-year absence! Welcome back Mark, Christy, Sophia, and Brandon!
When is a school tax considered a property tax? We all
learned that it happens on the east coast and that it will cause chaos in
underwriting in Phoenix!! It was a nail biter to the end, but Alexis MacDonald got her final loan
docs just in time for closing. She is now the proud owner of a wonderful home
retreat that she can enjoy after her long days as a resident at Honor Health.
So nice to have sold a home to a second generation for the Goodell/MacDonald
family!!
