Dave, brought a unique perspective to the Mahers’ relocation journey. Having personally relocated to Idaho himself, Dave offered firsthand insight into the transition process and could answer questions from a place of personal experience.

Here’s what we accomplished:

Finding the Right Home

NIE located a hard-to-find five-bedroom home on an ideal lot within the Mahers’ budget. Despite the competitive market, Dave secured their offer, even coordinating with the seller to cancel an open house, helping the Mahers avoid competing bids.

Personalized Approach

Since the Mahers were relocating from out of state, NIE created personalized video tours of each neighborhood, giving them a genuine feel for the area. Additionally, Dave held video call walkthroughs of potential properties, ensuring Brandon and Karisty could assess each home as if they were there in person.

Results + Outcome

Working with NIE, the Mahers experienced a seamless relocation journey and found a property that exceeded their expectations. Their five-bedroom home offered the space they needed for their family of 5 and was located in a neighborhood perfectly suited to their lifestyle. 

With Dave and NIE team’s guidance, the Mahers’ buying process was both smooth and rewarding.
