When David and Monica Capps decided to sell their beautiful West Seattle home and access the support offered by an area retirement community, they turned to Team RED. According to David, a Boeing employee since 1981, “It was the complete process that attracted us to Team RED.” Providing full-service senior transition resources, Team RED’s Realtors ® Kathy Kleber and Susan George evaluated the Capps’ situation and made effective recommendations.
The Capps had owned their home since 1986. Located in a highly-desired area of West Seattle, the home offered early-century charm and was wonderfully maintained. Team RED realized that a buyer would likely make future updates and, as the sellers, the Capps did not need to make any changes to get multiple offers.
With a pre-inspection report in hand, Team RED was able to show prospective buyers that the home was well-maintained, and its price reflected a great “move-in-ready” home in a lovely community. The price also allowed a buyer to make changes to suit their own preferences.
“Instead of focusing solely on a house sale, our senior transition services address where the senior is moving, what they will take, and the best way to dispose of the rest of their belongings, “ said Kleber.
Team RED introduced The Capps to a great team of ‘move managers’ who first helped with packing, moving and unpacking, and then coordinated the estate dispersal after the move was complete. After Dave and Monika settled into their new location, the house was cleaned, staged, photographed and listed on the market.
Team RED met directly with the Capps to review the large number of offers they received and guided them through the paperwork. “We were extremely pleased by the end-to-end process and the help with downsizing, choosing movers, cleaners, and staging the house. Team RED was responsible for everything,” said Monika.
The Capps are now established in their new apartment with the same beautiful view they had at their former house. “Team RED made everything from the first meeting to the signing of the paperwork so easy,” said David.
