Meet Hannah Wells
Hannah is known by friends as a bit of a hippie. Most days you can find her in flip flops and yoga pants, working from her home office in the friendliest neighborhood in Jacksonville, Historic Springfield. Hannah is an Enneagram 9 (the Peacemaker), loves playing fetch with her super-smart standard poodle, Beatrix, and being a mom to three amazing and brilliant adults.
As a recent empty-nester, Hannah has newfound time to spend exploring our city, which she’s called home for thirty-seven years. She runs a photography business, Hannah Joy Photography, and loves capturing big and small moments. For fun, she enjoys finding gluten-free treats around the neighborhood, tending to her backyard chickens, and listening to U2. Hannah has a passion for historic houses and loves the challenge of finding the perfect place for someone to create a home. She is dedicated to making the buying and selling process as stress-free and fun as possible and is ready to help you make your Real Estate dreams come true.
Why They Chose Hannah
Hannah’s clients were no strangers to her skill and dedication, as she had previously helped them purchase the home for their rental plans. Having already experienced her professionalism and care firsthand, they knew they were in good hands when it came time to sell. Her proactive approach and dedication to client success made her the perfect choice for guiding them through this sale.
The Decision to Sell
Although Hannah's clients had purchased the property as a rental investment, as their priorities shifted, they decided it wasn’t the right time for them to manage a rental property and began exploring other opportunities. Selling allowed them to take advantage of the current market and focus on their evolving plans.
Planning for Success: Concerns and Hannah’s Expertise
One of the clients’ main concerns was ensuring the property would appeal to buyers and stand out in a competitive market. They wanted to know what updates might yield the best return on investment. Hannah stepped in with her keen eye for design and her knowledge of the local market, offering thoughtful recommendations that would make the property shine. From updating the kitchen cabinets to refreshing the front door color and installing new wood-plank vinyl flooring, Hannah provided a clear, impactful plan that was both budget-conscious and strategic.
These suggestions not only enhanced the home’s aesthetic appeal but also increased its overall market value. This aspect of real estate is something Hannah thoroughly enjoys—she has a knack for identifying just the right upgrades to elevate a home, and her clients appreciated the guidance she offered every step of the way.
Overcoming a Unique Challenge: Hurricane Milton
Every real estate transaction has its hurdles, and in this case, Hurricane Milton posed an unexpected obstacle. Just as the property hit the market and generated multiple offers, the hurricane disrupted the plans of some potential buyers whose own homes were impacted by the storm. Despite the challenge, Hannah handled all communications smoothly, keeping both her clients and the buyers’ agents informed during this uncertain period. Remarkably, the home went under contract the day after the storm, a testament to Hannah's commitment and resourceful communication skills.
The Results: Speed and Success
This property’s sale journey was truly remarkable for its speed and success. Listed on a Monday, it received multiple offers within just 24 hours—a reflection of its market readiness and Hannah’s strategic enhancements. Within only 21 days, the property closed, exceeding expectations and highlighting the power of a well-prepared listing.
And the cherry on top? The final sale price came in $4,000 over the property’s Zestimate, adding an extra win for Hannah’s clients and showing the impact of her expert guidance.
With her exceptional understanding of the market and her dedication to client satisfaction, HannahWells turned this sale into a smooth, profitable experience for her clients. If you’re considering selling your home, Hannah’s expertise and market insights could be exactly what you need for a successful transaction.
