Celebrating Terry Gavan’s Dedication and Success
A True Real Estate Professional
In the fast-paced and competitive world of real estate, few agents possess the dedication and expertise required to navigate challenging deals successfully. Terry Gavan, a remarkable agent with Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Green Team, is one such individual. Her recent achievement in closing a difficult deal, despite numerous obstacles, showcases her unwavering commitment to her clients and their needs. Let’s take a closer look at Terry’s journey and applaud her exceptional work in the real estate industry.
The Challenging Deal
Terry’s most recent triumph involved a log house in Westtown, which presented several unique hurdles, including an easement on the property. Marketing a property with such complexities is no easy task, but Terry accepted the challenge wholeheartedly. With her extensive knowledge and sharp negotiation skills, she tirelessly worked to secure a buyer, despite facing a series of unrealistic and unacceptable below market offers along the way.
Persistence and Dedication
Terry’s unwavering dedication to her clients was evident throughout the arduous ten-month process. While many might have been discouraged by the numerous setbacks and adversities, Terry remained steadfast and focused on achieving the best outcome for her client. Her ability to maintain a positive mindset and adapt to changing circumstances is a testament to her exceptional professionalism.
A Lasting Legacy
What makes Terry’s success even more remarkable is her long-standing relationship with the client/seller. Having sold his house in Greenwood Lake in 2005 and subsequently helped him purchase the Westtown property in 2006, Terry has built a deep connection with this client, as she has with so many other repeat clients – over the years. Now, once again, the client entrusted Terry with selling the property, allowing him to embark on a new chapter in his life. This story highlights Terry’s commitment to nurturing long-term relationships with her clients and the trust they place in her expertise.
“When I decided to sell my home in Greenwood Lake in 2005, I was fortunate to somehow be referred to an excellent Realtor…Terry Gavan.
She listed the house and in under two months we were in contract. Terry’s knowledge, expertise, professionalism and pleasing personality came into play and made it work smoothly.
Terry then sold me my log house In Westtown in 2006. Assisting and guiding me in the buyer process with the same amount of effort, energy and knowledge.
Terry stayed in touch with me over the years ..always stopping by to say hello and checking in.
So of course when it came time to sell this log home I loved, Terry was there to explain all the nuances involved in a sale in the year 2022 and once again with a clear focus and constant updates and communication along with the bias for action that she adheres to, we got it done. It was no easy task. There were hurdles but Terry never deterred and stayed focused on the goal of selling.
She saw it through to the finish and I got a full price offer.. I could not have been happier with the entire transaction.
Another job well done! I would highly recommend calling Terry to get the job done!” – Mike A. – Westtown seller
