The 2020 housing market started out strong but has undergone some changes due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite that, it’s still a good time to buy or sell in Portland!
Marc has an incredible creativity. There are homes, I never would have looked at, given my narrow focus and experience in renovations. Upon entering homes, Marc was able to read my cues, and respond with a creative hypothetical of what could be done to improve the room. Because of his vision, we purchased the perfect home for location, and are working to continue on many of his creative ideas to expand the space.
We followed Marc’s recommendation and his crew made all the repairs and upgrades to the home. The house sold within days of going on the market for more than the asking price. The $15K spent on improvements increased the profit margin by more than $40K.
After the sale, Marc continued to support our relocation by linking us with designers, architects and the networks to assist our next steps in revision.
This is just a small token of my true appreciation for what you did for my daughter. Helping us through this process and ensuring the road to success gets accomplished was achieved!! You knew all along my key aspect was putting my daughter in a safe environment and for that I’ll always be grateful.
Marc was attentive to detail, sensitive to our family needs, and readily available with ideas, his time and input to our decision. He linked us with the professional through the financial process, translated the inspection reports and served as an advocate and negotiator to ensure our best interest was secured.
Marc has a global awareness about people and families that allowed him to read between my spoken lines and respond. Having a large family, Marc understood the needs that we demanded in a home and location. When viewing properties, he was perceptive and honest about the opportunity and how my family would adapt into the home. I never felt pressured or pushed into accepting aspects that might otherwise be improved.
Marc listened to our needs every step of the way, and most importantly, he followed through and MADE IT HAPPEN.
Eternally grateful for his attention and advocacy. Our family’s life has changed since making this move, and, we know, to attribute the credit to Marc for making it happen.
The location was good, but the house needed improvements, I had no idea what the house was worth and had no idea of what work needed to be done to guarantee a sale. And then Marc Zemp came to my rescue!
Thank you for all your patience and helpful council in our journey and what feels a bit surreal and lightning speed. As you know 6 months ago, I was doubting anyone besides an investor would want to buy our house. So glad you helped us see the possibilities!
