Buying on the island and the Points
We represent a small number of buyers at a time, and we tell you what we would tell a friend about every house you see.
Buying a significant home here is often about access as much as price. Many homes trade before they are public. Our buyers hear about private sales through us.
We start with a long conversation about how you live, not just bedrooms and budget. Then we preview homes before you see them, so your time goes to the few that are worth it.
We bring the people you will need: inspectors who know waterfront structures, a lender who closes on time, a contractor for an honest repair estimate.
What is included
- A first conversation about how you live
- Access to private and pre-market homes
- Previews before you spend a weekend
- Negotiation and inspection handled by a partner
- Introductions to inspectors, lenders and builders
Questions we are asked
Do you work with buyers relocating from abroad?
Yes. See relocation.
Can you help us buy before we sell?
Yes. We plan both sides together so the timing works.
Do you show homes listed by other teams?
Yes. We represent you on any home that suits you.
If you are thinking about selling, or would rather hear about a home before it reaches the market, request a private conversation. One of the partners will call you, and nothing goes further than the three of us.
Or call (206) 555-0141. If we miss you, the desk texts you back within a minute so you are not left wondering.
Sorry we missed your call. This is Linden & Shore. Reply with a good time and Maren or Theo will call you back today.
