Realtor Jen Ziegler - Re/max Solid Gold

Nobody tells you about this part.

The part where you're standing in the kitchen for the last time and you're not thinking about closing dates or market value.

You're thinking about the birthday cakes you made on that counter. The homework spread across that table. The door frame where you marked their heights in pencil and told yourself you'd paint over it someday - but never did.

Selling a home is a transaction on paper.

But when it's the home you brought your babies home to. The home where they took their first steps, had their first heartbreaks, packed their first boxes and drove away while you stood in the driveway trying to hold it together.
It's not just a house anymore. It hasn't been for a long time.

And that makes letting go complicated in a way that square footage and sold prices can't touch.

If you're in this season right now - or getting close to it - I want you to know that what you're feeling makes complete sense. You're not being sentimental. You're being human.

This is one of the most significant things you'll ever do. And you deserve someone who understands that it's about so much more than the sale.
