Integrity. This was what I was looking for in a realtor as I navigated the stressful process of buying my first home amidst the frenzy of bidding wars in a sellers market. Wendy embodied this impeccably.
She always prioritized my needs for safety, trust, patience, being heard, and being supported through all steps of the home buying process. There were several instances where she could have easily influenced my decisions such as making offers on homes that I did not feel sure about, or increasing the $ value on my offers so that my bid would be the highest. She made absolute sure, that everything that I chose to do came from an honest decision of listening to what was right for me, versus being pressured into doing something that was outside of alignment.
She was incredibly responsive, organized, competent and friendly. She was well connected with the best inspectors and able to get appointments quickly during a competitive time.
What was most meaningful to me however, was that Wendy encouraged me to take ownership for my home buying process. She suggested that I drive to different neighborhoods to get a sense of what I wanted. To contact the inspectors to ask questions and understand the reports that I was receiving. I learned so much through my experience of working with her and now feel empowered to tackle anything. Wendy has been a great teacher and a friend.
While for me it was very important to feel in control and know all of the details of the purchasing process, she would probably take a very different approach with someone that wanted to be less involved. What makes Wendy standout is her ability to attune to her clients' needs and adjusts her style to their preferences.
Lastly, I honestly do feel that I got the best house on the market for my price point. I have no sense of having had to settle or compromise on what I wanted. And all of this happened in just 2 months during an era of record low inventory!!!! I even got everything I asked for during the negotiation process and more! I couldn't have done it without Wendy.
Without any reservations, I would highly recommend Wendy Granberg as one of the best realtors you could have on your home buying team. read more
