In selling our house, Rushing Partners went above and beyond in more ways than I can list here, but I will try.
For quick context: Our house wasn’t the easiest to sell; it was a newer construction in an older, established neighborhood, which made the price point higher than those surrounding it. We complicated things by moving out of the country before the house sold.
Jenny and Rob Rushing were completely unfazed by both of those factors.
In addition to producing marketing materials and taking advantage of great exposure opportunities, Jenny held open houses w/ thoughtful refreshments and flexible hours, ensuring we had a regular flow of traffic. When I fretted about logistics of moving abroad during the sale, Jenny was incredibly accommodating and reassuring.
When my family did actually leave, my husband and I were 100% comfortable knowing the house was in the Rushings’ hands. Can I reiterate that for a second? We actually left the country, and felt completely at ease about it. That’s how wonderful they are.
Jenny and Rob were able to advise us on how best to leave the house show-ready despite our absence. Jenny checked regularly on the house, even (without being asked) knowing to run the faucets and flush the toilets to keep everything fresh, and Rob never hesitated to pop in and take care of any unexpected needs that arose.
Jenny was endlessly available for my phone calls, never seeming rushed and always willing to talk through in detail every aspect of marketing and selling the house. Despite the six hour time difference and the need to talk using international phone apps, we always, always knew Jenny was just an easy phone call away.
When multiple offers began coming in, Rob was able to break down the nuances, pros and cons of each, helping us to make fully informed decisions. His expertise in finances and contracts was invaluable.
When the offer came in that we wanted to accept, Jenny was able to negotiate a deal that left us and the buyers happy. Our family absolutely loved our home and we treasure our former neighbors, so having an amicable experience with the buyers was very important to us.
Jenny and Rob were highly knowledgeable about navigating a sale from abroad, and were able to guide us effortlessly through our side of the closing process.
And, in those final days before closing, when odds and ends invariably arise, Jenny and Rob were completely available to go by our house, answer questions, and repeatedly ensure we knew that all was well.
We’ll forever be grateful to Rushing Partners for how they managed the sale of our house. Every step of the way they showed commitment, competence, and grace.
