Overcoming Distance and Personal Hardship

The Challenge

In this trust real estate transaction, the executor faced daunting challenges. As the elderly sibling of the homeowner, she found herself grappling with her profound loss, compounded by significant personal issues.

Living a considerable distance from the property added another layer of complexity, making managing the estate daunting and seemingly impossible.

The physical and emotional space created a unique set of hurdles, from the logistics of coordinating a cleanout from afar to the overwhelming task of sorting personal belongings and preparing the property for sale.

This situation demanded more than professional expertise; it required compassionate, hands-on assistance navigating the intricate estate management process under such sensitive circumstances.

01.

Coordination and Management

Took control of the entire cleanout process, fully aware that the executor couldn't manage the estate physically due to her distance and personal challenges. My hands-on approach ensured that we efficiently covered every necessary detail.

02.

Vendor Liaison

I gathered quotes from multiple vendors, ensuring we obtained cost-effective and reliable services for cleaning, repairs, and any necessary renovations. This saved the executor valuable time and guaranteed the property was ready for the market.

03.

Hands-On Assistance

Going above and beyond, I took on the tasks of cleaning, sorting, and donating items from the home. This meticulous effort was vital in preparing the house for the market, making it attractive to potential buyers, and maximizing the financial return for the estate.

The Outcome

Thanks to the dedicated efforts of our team, the property was prepared for sale efficiently and respectfully, reflecting the wishes of the family and the needs of the executor. The home sold quickly and at a favorable price, bringing closure and financial benefit to the estate.

"Our family making the choice to have Akel sell my grandmother home was our families best decision! Akel is a realtor that offers so much. Not only does he sell the house but he goes above and beyond along the way with relationships, labor, clearing the home, cleaning, photos, communication Etc..

My grandmother is 88yrs old and has lived in the house for over 30 years. With her age and love for her home, Akel came in and was patient, reassuring, efficient, and helpful. He took the time to sit for hours and made a trustworthy relationship with her.

We all live a few hours away so naturally selling a home from a ways away can leave an uneasy feeling. Akel reassured us all throughout the entire process. He gave us is truthful professional opinion always and in the end helped us make the best choice possible.

If you are looking for a realtor, you’re in the perfect spot to choose Akel. Look no further!! We are so grateful for him and his team and I can PROMISE you will be too ????"
