Don’t Get Your Hopes Up
Seeing as Joyce had mentioned that she had lived there for 70 years and had only ever revamped her kitchen, the sisters were prepared for the worst.

Time To Evaluate the Home
Sometimes, a prospective client is trying to play down an issue with their homes, such as mold or leaks. This is not rare in the real estate game and the sisters knew all the signs when this happened.
