Words I Love to Hear: Clear to Close. There is nothing better than the ring a linging of those three words.
When the buyers lender called me up today to let me know that we were good for a Monday morning closing. It is time for this Charlestown RI home for sale that is just right for these buyers.
This home has special meaning to me since these young buyers are buying a Freddie Mac foreclosed home that has taken 4 months to get to the closing table. THey are just waiting to move into their Rhode Island living home.
Nothing was easy about this home..from the inspection to the radon in the water to the bacteria in the well...Oh, it just went on and on. The buyers have work to do in this home but they have great expansion possibilities in the upstairs that has been all roughly finished for them. With 2 acres of land and low real estate taxes and just 10 minutes from town, they are planning their future with the words I love to hear: clear to close!!
We also are getting a present from the Bank I am told...not going to spoil it because it will definitely put the cabash on it at this point! Even with all the issues to get this sweet Charlestown RI home to closing, the REO agent and her team were very cooperative with getting things done (well I am a sweet talker) to please my buyers lender prior to closing. And we have no snow...shhh!
So I'm counting the hours with my buyers until we get there...lets see that is 123 hours and counting down....think I am a bit crazed by this point...oh no...this is how a North Kingstown real estate agent celebrates! Words I Love to Hear: Clear to Close.

People who Rather Rent then Buy Real Estate. Not everyone is meant to own a home to live in and
that is an acceptable fact. Some home buyers will never be able to get a mortgage, some people will stay living with mom and dad, some have gone through foreclosure and others rather throw their money away in rent!

Dear Ginny, I can’t even begin to thank you enough for all that you have done. It seems so long ago that you were showing me condos. It has been a long road for sure, but we are finally here! Thank you for all of your tireless work throughout the process. I appreciate how you answered my millions of questions and guided me the whole way. I don’t know what I would have done without you! This house was not an easy one to close. I am truly grateful for all of your hard work! Thank you Ginny for turning my dream of home ownership into a reality! A. Fandetti
September 14, 2011:
Ginny Gorman’s knowledge of the local community and my neighborhood was beyond expectation. What ever happened to actually trying to sell a property. Is it me or did I just happen to run into a few lazy realtors??? Due to a company relocation, I was put in a position where I had to sell my North Kingstown home. I had contacted 2 other realtors (from major real estate companies) to assess the value of my home. Both of them had no idea about the local neighborhood and were content to rely on their companies marketing plans vs. actually making an attempt to sell the property using good ole fashion hustle. Well, not being satisfied with the market assessments and selling agents, I contacted Ginny Gorman At Phillips Post Road Realty. It was a great thing that I did, as she has an unparallelled knowledge of how to promote a property through internet marketing, which in today’s real estate market, is one of the strongest tools / first places that people will go to start their own searches and market research of a property. Needless to say with good ole fashion hustle and boots (red slippers) on the ground, she had a prospective buyer and offer within 1 week of the home being listed and we had an agreed upon sale price that was amicable for both parties within 10 days. I highly recommend Ginny Gorman’s services to anyone interested in selling or buying a home in the RI market, she will not disappoint! A. Slusser
June 30 2011- Difficult is an understatement in my home sale due to the lenders and getting the approvals needed on my short sale. Ginny pushed hard, stayed in contact with me all the time (even late at night when I was so frustrated with the banks) and delivered incredible customer service and results. She even went to the CEO of the bank at d-day hour because the negotiators were not delivering on the deal to close in time and we received the paperwork to close the very next day. Her persistence and diligence is like no other realtor I have met. I will recommend her to my friends and family for any real estate transaction! SM
January 5,2011.
As first time home buyers, my fiancé and I had no clue what to expect. From the moment we met with Ginny we became relaxed. She walked us through every step of this crazy home buying process. I would highly recommend Ginny Gorman for anyone looking for a professional, hard working, and driven real estate agent. We are so happy in our new home that Ginny worked to get at an AMAZING price. Thank you Ginny! Sarah & John
May 17, 2010.."Dear Ginny, Thanks for getting us our house! As newcomers to Rhode Island, we absolutely couldn't have done it without your guidance and expertise. Your knowledge of the real estate market and of the uniqueness of the various areas that populate South County made all the difference. You found us the perfect house in the right neighborhood and we had a long list of criteria. You listened to our needs and never wasted time on something that wouldn't be a good fit for us. We greatly appreciated your patience, persistance and warm professionalism throughout our home-buying experience. All our best, Ashley and Michael"
November 25, 2009 To Whom It May Concern: I am very pleased to offer this letter of recommendation for Ginny Gorman as a talented and extremely effective Real Estate agent. My mom and I recently listed a home with Ginny and were very please with the results obtained in great part through Ginny's hard work and marketing skills. In a down market, we were able to sell and close on our house in just over three months! This event included the replacement of a septic system. Ginny guided us every step of the way providing valuable tips and recommendations for making the house easier to sell. Ginny is extremely organized and very aggressive but not pushy, very good traits for a real estate agent! She was able to get many people in to see the house which is a tribute to her talents for marketing. Ginny was thorough and acted as a trusted counselor as we walked through the very involved process of selling a home. It gives me great pleasure to recommend her to any prospective clients in search of a top notch real estate agent.
