My husband and I couldn’t be happier in our new ho

We were not typical buyers and were pretty choosy about what we wanted for the fairly low price we could afford to pay. Approaching our retirement years, we wanted a home and a neighborhood we could love for the rest of our lives. We wanted a house with some charm and character in a nice but diverse, eclectic neighborhood. Trees were a must for me and the less fixing up the better for my husband. The home also had to fall within a certain distance from my husband’s office. Making the task even more challenging, we were FHA buyers. We have both been previously divorced and out of the housing market for a long time and we had little cash. But, we have good jobs and good credit and we wanted to take advantage of the lower prices and interest rates in today’s market. Needless to say, we were not the easiest clients to please or deal with. Jared assured us he would help us find the right deal but it would take some time and he got down to work. He knows a lot about whether a home will pass FHA inspection, etc. and he is very able to size up and compare various neighborhoods and locations, especially in the San Diego area. He also had contacts with other agents and a mortgage broker which were also very helpful when everything finally came together. We weren’t in a rush but we had to be patient and not get too discouraged when homes we bid on went to cash buyers. Finally, after months of looking and deciding against pursuing a short sale, we found the perfect house. Jared really went to bat for us and almost before we knew it our offer was accepted! Thanks to Jared’s help we have been in our home for 6 months now and are still very appreciative of his professional and personable assistance! Debra Oliver San Diego, CA
