… “closing went without a hitch. Papers signed and payment received exactly as agreed upon with no last minute surprises…”

“My mother-in-law passed away in 2017, leaving behind a ranch house in Narberth, Pennsylvania, which she had lived in since the mid-1960’s.

The family made the decision that we needed to sell the house. Houses in the area are routinely sold and gutted, regardless how great the condition might be. Our house was not in immaculate condition. With these two facts, we decided our best route was to sell the house to a redeveloper.

We met with several firms. Most gave us low-ball offers. We knew the fair value because we first had the house appraised by a licensed appraiser. We also learned during the process that not all redevelopers are really what they claim to be. We thought we had the house sold, only to learn that the buyer wanted to show the house before we closed in order to “pre-sell it.” The discussion of a reasonable earnest deposit ended that negotiation.

Fortunately, we found a letter we had received from Halo Home Buyers. I reached out to Jonathan Faccone and although he was on vacation with his family, he spent time with me on the phone to understand the transaction. He arranged for an associate, Jorge Fagundes, to come out to the house. Jorge came within a few days and we walked the house and property together. He called back within a week with an acceptable offer.

Jorge was an absolute pleasure to work with! He spent the time to both ask and answer questions as well as to kick around ideas as to how they might proceed with the renovations. We were able to go to contract within a few days and we were present when he brought other people to the house (architects, engineers, etc.)

Jorge also recognized that we had a huge amount of emptying to do. We agreed on the closing date and he came back a few times asking if we were still okay with that date and offered more time if we needed it. A part of the contract was that we could simply walk away, leaving behind anything we could not dispose of. That alone saved us time and money!

The closing went without a hitch. Papers signed and payment received exactly as agreed upon with no last minute surprises.

I would highly recommend Jorge, John and Halo Home Buyers.” See More Reviews…
