Buyer Chronicles - Rhita’s Twin Cities Investment Journey
Episode 1: From Forever Home to First Investment
When you find the perfect forever home, it doesn’t take long before you start dreaming bigger—and that’s exactly what happened for Rhita. A returning client of Victoria’s, Rhita had recently secured her dream home in Minnesota and decided it was the perfect time to also step into the world of investment properties.
With a clear vision in mind, we explored a few options across the Twin Cities that fit both lifestyle and long-term goals. Rhita was thoughtful about location, value, and timing—and because she chose to shop in the fall and winter months, when the market is less competitive, opportunities were in her favor. Before long, we had narrowed in on a new-construction townhome that checked every box: modern, move-in ready, and ideal as a rental property.
The foundation was set. Now it was time to move from search mode to the offer stage.
Episode 2: The Offer & The Win
Once Rhita identified her ideal investment property, the process moved quickly. We worked together to craft a strong offer strategy—one that not only aligned with her budget but also maximized available builder incentives. Timing proved to be everything: by shopping in the off-season, Rhita was able to secure the property at a fantastic price point and with extras that added real value.
The transaction was seamless from start to finish. Negotiations on terms were smooth, paperwork moved efficiently, and soon enough, Rhita was under contract. In just a short span of time, she had successfully transitioned from a homebuyer into a real estate investor—building her portfolio one smart move at a time.
Now, this beautiful townhome will not only provide a comfortable space for future tenants but will also serve as a cornerstone in Rhita’s growing investment journey.

Episode 3: Closing on a New Chapter
With her offer accepted and details locked in, Rhita’s journey came to a smooth and successful close. In just three weeks, she officially signed on her brand-new Woodbury townhome—a property that was not only secured at a discount but also came with extra perks like blinds and thoughtful upgrades negotiated directly with the builder.
The entire process was seamless, with no last-minute hurdles, and Rhita walked away with exactly what she envisioned: a low-maintenance, move-in-ready property in one of Minnesota’s most sought-after communities.
This closing marks another milestone in Rhita’s journey, as she continues to build her real estate portfolio with smart, well-timed decisions. And for us, it’s always a joy to see a client and friend step confidently into their next chapter with keys in hand and a strategy that works.
