Buying a home can be a maze. It’s trickier when you’re out of state and have specific family needs.
For families with special needs, picking a home is tougher than just choosing a layout or location. It’s about finding a safe, accessible space where everyone can thrive. As a mother of children with special needs herself, Agent Norwood had a personal touch that adds to the process. She had experienced firsthand the vital details and accommodations that can make a home perfect for families like hers.
Creating a Connection
When this family reached out, Agent Norwood knew to listen closely to their needs. Having walked a similar path, she knew how vital it was to create a nurturing, accessible space for children with special needs. They must feel secure and supported there. Her search focused on accessibility and sensory-friendly features. These priorities let her anticipate what the family would find most important. With her personal experience, she could imagine the kind of home that would offer safety, comfort, and stability.
Virtual Tours Built Communication & Trust
Since the family couldn’t visit Georgia in person, we relied on virtual tours to make that important connection to their future home. Agent Norwood aimed to be thorough and transparent in each walkthrough. She used video calls and detailed explanations to show each property’s unique features. Frequent communication built trust. She aimed to provide a clear, honest view so they could feel confident at every turn. By understanding their needs and the home’s features, she could guide them to the perfect choice despite the distance.
Once we found the ideal property, the next step was securing it in a competitive market. With multiple offers on the table, crafting a strong, engaging offer was vital. Agent Norwood used all her skill to secure the home. She also got the seller to cover $10,000 in closing costs. This is a big win in today’s market. She also negotiated repairs and upgrades that would benefit the family. She wanted the home to meet their needs before they stepped through the door.

After the offer was accepted, Agent Norwood oversaw some upgrades. She worked closely with contractors and inspectors to get everything ready for the family’s move-in. She ensured the repairs and accommodations matched the family’s priorities.
