My mother, Grace Phillips Keller, turned uncertified realator when she sold her home in Greenfield in about 1975. She was a super flower grower. All of her adult life wherever she lived luxuriant flowers bloomed and thrived in her garden. She had a green thumb, and never seemed to mind the hours of hard work, the hot summer sun, or the wind that disarranged her hair. Growing flowers was her hobby, and to her the work was joy as she watched a delicate rose unfurl, a delphinium burst into blossom, the marigolds mix their brilliant colors with the sunshine, and the tiny violas whisper in the breezes.
But, a real estate person? What could she possibly know about selling a house? Yet to the surprise of her entire familly, one day she decided to sell her home and move to the village in south Greenfield. This was a few years after Dad had died, and the retirement complex with inhabitants her age beckoned. She could put aside the toils of gardening, lawn care, home upkeep. The family raised some eyebrows and smiled wisely. Grandma couldn't sell the house herself; she would be better advised to get a realator involved.
However, life has some surprising twists, and just one week later she announced she had sold her house. And, what was more amazing was that the sale price was twice what anyone would have imagined! How did she accomplish this surprising thing? She simply advertised in the local newspaper, and the buyer was an older lady who loved flowers as much as my mother did. She came to see the house and was taken by the beauty of the gorgeous flower garden so much so that she almost immediately made the purchase. Together they negotiated the deal to the satisfaction of both without benefit of a realator.
We still scratch our heads in wonderment that toil and love of the earth which produced such beauty could actually sell a home so quickly and at such a handsome profit. My mother, Grace Keller, died February 13, l985, and I am sure her heaven is filled with wonderful blooming flowers.
