Success Through Patience and Perseverance: 5117 Primrose Avenue SE, Kentwood, MI 49548

Jason Veenstra smiles alongside sellers Benjamin and Hannah at the title office after closing on their Kentwood home, celebrating a successful sale despite a delayed closing.

We’re celebrating another successful closing—this one took a few extra twists and turns, but thanks to patience, teamwork, and trust, it all came together beautifully in the end.

Benjamin and Hannah were referred to us by their previous Realtor who moved out of state—a gesture that speaks volumes about the respect and confidence other agents have in our team. Earlier this year, we helped them purchase their new-to-them home, and after moving in, they spent several months preparing this home for the market.

They followed every bit of advice we offered and truly went above and beyond. Their hard work paid off: the home showed beautifully and attracted three fantastic, over-asking-price offers within just six days.

Beautiful front exterior of 5117 Primrose Avenue SE in Kentwood, Michigan — a well-maintained ranch-style home with white siding, black shutters, a covered front porch, manicured landscaping, and mature trees under a bright blue sky.

Everything was moving along perfectly—until two days before closing, when the buyer’s contingent sale unexpectedly fell through. It was disappointing news for everyone, but Benjamin and Hannah handled it with incredible understanding and patience.

Over the next few weeks, we worked closely with the buyer’s agent as they secured a new buyer for their contingent home. With steady communication and persistence from all sides, we were able to close just three weeks later than planned—and everyone walked away happy.

This sale is a great reminder that even when real estate throws a few curveballs, the right combination of preparation, communication, and teamwork can still lead to a win.

Congratulations, Benjamin and Hannah—you were a joy to work with from start to finish, and we’re grateful for your trust through both your purchase and your sale!
