After my husband passed away, the time came when I realized I needed to move. I hadn’t been long after my decision when a realtor friend of mine called and said, “I’m showing these houses in Lone Tree and perhaps you would like to take a look?” I basically said, “Lone Tree? Why would I want to get a house there?” But on her recommendation, I drove 30 minutes south from my place in Denver, looked at the neighborhood and called my agent back saying, “I would like to look at this particular home I just saw there.”
She told me, “It’s not for sale. It’s sold.” I told her, “No, I just saw it on the market today.” So we set up a showing and we walked in the house.
We learned that the deal did fall through but the house was relisted the day I saw it and not yet in the realtor’s databases. It was put backon the market the day I saw it and when we got inside to look, it reminded me of a mini version of the former Arizona house and a neighborhood my husband and I liked so much.
Once inside the home for sale, I immediately said, “This is perfect and I want to make an offer. My realtor said, “Okay, you need $60,000 now.” So, I called my stockbroker and asked where I could get the $60,000. I didn’t like the idea of taking a chunk out of my retirement, but I was willing to go forward with it.
Answering the phone, my broker said, “Hold on, let me look.” He got back to me with a surprise, saying, “ You have $60,000.29 in a cash account that you have forgotten about.” It was exactly the amount of money to qualify for the purchase and lock in the sale!
I have learned that when things are supposed to happen, they’re going to happen, and as I’ve gotten older, if I sense that is something isn’t going to work, then I don’t spend energy on it. This was a “going to happen day.”
Looking back on that morning, I drove to the neighborhood and first saw the nearby Art Center, something very appealing to me.Then, the house I liked had just come on the market, and I was able to see it first thing in the morning. Contacting my stockbroker is tricky, I love him dearly, but he doesn’t often answer the phone, but he did that morning.
I don’t know if this was like manifesting, but I had it in my mind to find a house and in a very short time, everything fell together to quickly and effortlessly. One more thing that endeared this entire process to me is that the new home was like a mini version of a home my deceased husband and I owned in Arizona and the neighborhood was very much the same, an additional comfort to me. And one more thing… at the end of the day, the final decision maker for me was having an art center nearby and now I am part of the group that arranges exhibitions there.
Perfect again!
In this story, Susan had a few things on her mind here: a new home, the ideal of her former Arizona home and her love of the arts. This thought was constantly with her and when she allowed herself to leave the comfort zone of downtown Denver area, everything fell into place. It may even be that it was already waiting for her.
