Dr. Elena Rodriguez had lived in her Chapel Hill home near UNC for 14 years. When she accepted a department chair position at a university in Oregon, she had one month to wrap up her life in Chapel Hill.
Her home had an aging roof and a basement with moisture history — two things that make conventional lenders nervous. An agent confirmed the issues could kill or delay deals.
Acorn bought with full knowledge of both issues. We closed in 13 days. Dr. Rodriguez made her Oregon start date with days to spare.
"Professional, transparent, and fast. Perfect for an academic on a hard deadline." — Dr. Elena R., Chapel Hill NC
