First of all, I was very scared to buy a new home, and moving from Wisconsin to Washington was also a daunting thought. I am turning 70 this year and have been a widow for 6 years now. I’ve never EVER done anything like this without a husband. Which has been my life since the day my husband died..learning and doing things I never imagined doing without him. I made it very clear that my main reason for buying a house and making such a move wasn’t really because I wanted to but because I decided to while I can still make the choice myself. Being in our family home which I can’t easily keep up myself has become too much and I know how the house and property is suffering due to this. My son lives 15 miles from my new home, he was the main power behind my decision. My daughter and grandaughter will be coming, also from Wisconsin, to live with me in Washington. When the absolute perfect house presented itself | just knew it was a sign so I went for it. Riley knew my story. He also knew my fear. I feel like everyone involved was respectful of my situation and that was a huge help throughout the process. As a 70 year old woman, used to a husband dealing with the big financial parts of life for 43 years, I could have never imagined buying a house going so smoothly and quickly. I am now excited to make my move and that alone says a lot. I thank Riley for it all and his patience. – Julie S.
