FIRST TEAM® AGENT HELPS FAMILY ELIMINATE FINANCIAL STRESS
Marion Fuget and family with First Team agent Jenean Hill.
Smart solutions for Aliso Viejo family featured in new “My Story” video (Costa Mesa, Calif., Dec. 27, 2011) An Aliso Viejo father of three, facing mounting financial burden, decided to sell his family’s home to prevent his economic status from becoming more dire. Thanks to the guidance and expertise of his First Team agent, the home sold for an incredible $100,000 more than agents from other companies suggested he list it for.
This inspiring story is the subject of the newest video of the First Team “My Story” campaign, which can be viewed at www.FirstTeam.com/MyStory.
Marion Fuget had been working full time but was still struggling month to month when he understood that he could salvage his family’s way of life only if he sold his home. The house needed repairs and many agents advised him to sell it as-is for a lower price. Hoping for a better alternative, he contacted First Team agent Jenean Hill, who said that a small investment in repairs would yield a much higher selling price. She was right. The home sold after just five days on the market for $100,000 more than the price other agents
had recommended. Hill then helped Fuget find another home that fits the young family’s lifestyle.
“Selling our family home was extremely hard, but working with Jenean was the right thing to do,” Fuget said. “She devised solutions that let us live free from financial stress.”
