“Folks, tell me—what would your dream home look like?” asked their eager-to-please REALTOR®.They glanced at each other, sharing a knowing smile as a dreamy look washed over their faces. Their words began to flow fast and furiously.“LAND!” he said. “We want some land!”“But not out in the sticks,” she chimed in. “I want neighbors.”Back and forth they went—he dreaming of a wired workshop and a brick fireplace with gas logs, she swooning over the thought of a greenhouse and space to garden. The idea of brick with vinyl trim and soffits for easy, low-cost maintenance was especially appealing for their budget. And they both loved the upscale look of architectural shingles.“Well, I want a BIG kitchen!” she said clearly.He agreed—they loved having friends and family gather in the kitchen and wanted plenty of workspace and storage.“I wish they still made real double ovens,” she added. “That makes all the difference for holiday meals.” She noticed their Realtor grinned. “What about a slightly older home,” he suggested, “one with quality construction, well maintained, offering the warmth of hardwood floors but with updates that make it feel new?”Three bedrooms and two full baths would be more than adequate. A handicap-accessible bath would be a wonderful bonus for when their grandmother came to visit.They also wanted to be close to everything—groceries, the bank, pharmacy, gas station, hardware store, and great local eateries—all within an easy drive. Just minutes to I-295 for a straight shot to Ft. Bragg or the Triangle would be a huge plus. Or turn the other direction and be just two hours from the beautiful North Carolina coast. And downtown? Such a fun destination, with an easy drive straight down Ramsey Street. And so many fun activities on the campuses of nearby Fayetteville State University and Methodist University. Their smiles never faded—and they noticed their REALTOR® was still wearing one of her own.“We know that’s a lot to find in one place,” they said, “but you asked what our dream home would be like… and that’s it.”“Well,” she replied with a pure twinkle in her eye, “guess what—let’s get in the car right now, because I’m pretty sure I can make your dream come true and how about we throw in a great big screened porch, too? Yes -- I see your dream coming true at 512 Longview.”(And it’s well under your target price range!)
