Property for sale
Do you believe that things happen for a reason? Do you believe that part or life is being in the right place at the right time? I do. There have been many times throughout my life that everything just seems to fall into place. This has happened with job opportunities as well as relationships and even the present home we live in. Fate has intervened often enough in my life to make me a firm believer in it.
Six years ago my husband and I had just finished a six month remodeling job on our country home. We had completely gutted the kitchen, dining room and living room as well as a hallway. There had been a great deal of paneling in the house so we took all of it out put up sheet rock and had everything taped and sprayed. By the time we were done we had everything the way we wanted it. We had talked about one day selling the house and moving to a lake home, but we were thinking that would be for our retirement years. One day for my job I was driving along the scenic drive by one of the huge lakes in our area. As I was going past one house a realtor was placing a property for sale sign in the front yard.
My husband and I often take this scenic drive and had often commented on how cozy this particular home looked. It was an A-frame with an upper deck as well as a small deck off of a new addition that had been put on the home. The yard was beautiful with several rock gardens and huge mature trees. The lake shore was a bit steep but the doc system they had was great. When I arrived home I told my husband about the property being for sale. He made a comment that we would not be able to afford it. A few days went buy and I decided to check the internet to see if the house was listed in the property for sale section. The house was there complete with pictures inside and out. The price was not too high considering the amount of lake shore that went with the house.
A few weeks later I had an emergency call from a client that he needed a ride to get to his cancer treatment and his car broke down while he was visiting his brother at the lake. I drove up to get him. His brother’s house was just a few miles from the property for sale that I was interested in. When we drove past the property my client mentioned that the pending sale had just fallen through and that the owners were getting nervous because their new home was ready to move into. I called my husband and we called the realtor and set up a showing. Within two months we were living in a lake home. We placed our country property for sale and it sold in 24 hours. Everything was meant to be.
