First-Time Buyers Find Their Perfect Mid-Century Home in Hillsboro
Buying your first home is always such an exciting milestone but for me, helping Hannah and Luke through the process was extra special.
Who would have thought that I’d go from holding baby Hannah when I was just 25 to one day handing her and her husband, Luke, the keys to their very first home?
Searching Far and Wide for the Perfect Fit
Like many first-time homebuyers, Hannah and Luke knew they wanted the right home, not just the right location. So, we started our search with an open mind and toured homes far and wide…literally! From Woodburn to Gresham, Vancouver, and finally, Hillsboro, we looked at a little bit of everything.
When we finally stepped into a mid-century gem in a quiet Hillsboro neighborhood, we knew we had found the one. It had the charm they were looking for, the layout they wanted, and a location that felt just right.
Negotiating a Smooth Start
Once we were under contract, my focus turned to making sure they wouldn’t have to worry about major repairs. Together, we negotiated for new plumbing, crawlspace cleanup, electrical work, and a few other updates. Knowing they could move in without the stress or surprises of major repairs made me just as excited as they were.
Teamwork Makes the Dream Work
Every successful home purchase is a team effort, and this one was no different. I teamed up with Trina Fangon, a lender who’s known this family for years. Her experience and connection with them made the process even more meaningful for everyone involved.
With patience, teamwork, and clear communication, everything came together perfectly.
