Property Description

Hi, I'm your sweet first house. I'm little. I'm brick. I'm almost a hundred years old but I talk like a toddler. Many, many years from now you'll still have fond memories of me. You'll say things like: "We could see Slide Mountain from the living room." "Remember how good the peaches were from that ugly tree?" And, my favorite, "We were so happy there." Come meet me so we can get started. ****So we tried the clever marketing campaign, "House as First Person Narrator," and you haven't scheduled a tour. We've had four, five, six times the clicks and views of any other analogous listing, but only a handful of first-time home buyers have come to the open houses. ???????? We're all reeling, incredulous, segregating ourselves from a society that suddenly seems alien to us. Maybe you're recreating; maybe you're nesting, practicing self-care or just trying to forget everything you've just spent the last several months trying to understand. I witnessed 9/11 firsthand, standing on a sidewalk in Lower Manhattan, and was numb and detached for months afterward. So I already know something you need to know: things will get better. You're not going to move to Costa Rica (mosquitoes) or Japan (no street tacos): you have great friends here, you love your jobs, and, furthermore, you like living in Reno. You've made a good life that's worth nurturing. So do whatever you do to focus, look at this listing carefully, and then call your real estate agent and schedule an appointment to SEE THIS HOUSE NOW. Don't let a national tragedy beget a personal one: This really is the best, most affordable starter house to come on the market in a long, long time. It's in a hella desirable neighborhood (NOVA = North Of the VA), home to groovy people and their dogs. Where you belong. With your tribe. Don't miss out on owning it because you're sad.****Yes, interest rates have gone back up but they will come down again next year. Never to the same low rates they were before May 2022, but lower than they are now. (You should consult your financial advisor about this; I am not prescient.) If rates come down, and if you finance now through Guild Mortgage, you'll be able to refinance at the lower rate for up to a year with no loan fees. And if you wait to buy "in a few years" this house and every other one you want will be worth $100K more than it is now. Make sure that hundred grand is in your account. Do like my owners did: buy it now, pay a little more than you both pay in rent, and start building equity so you can afford to buy up to your forever home "in a few years." Think of it as an elevator: you've got to get on to go up.****The fact is this house will be off the market in a little more than a week with or without you, and it's either going to be sold to first-time buyers like you, or to an investor. And if it's an investor it's going to be rented out by them for $2200-$2400 per month to a couple just like you FOREVER, and another opportunity for a young buyer to own a home will be thwarted. We're rooting for you. But we can't sell it to you if you don't even show up to let it cast its spell. So pull yourselves together, walk out through your RENTED front door, and come. Think of your purchase of this house as a repudiation of the "them" that seem to be ascendant: homeownership makes for better neighborhoods and a stronger community. It helps build more financially secure lives, binding us together. And it makes you happy. Which is just what you need right now and in the uncertain times that lie ahead.
