POV: In June 2019 the Aquino-Quintana Family started their move-up home buying journey. The Aquino-Quintana family had been searching for their dream home for what felt like an eternity. They had scoured countless neighborhoods, toured numerous houses, and spent hours poring over real estate listings. But with each passing day, their search had become increasingly disheartening. One Saturday afternoon, they set out to view yet another property, but as they approached the house, they were struck by the sheer beauty of the neighborhood. It was a place where children played outside, neighbors greeted each other warmly. As they stepped inside the house, the Aquino-Quintana family felt as though they had finally found the one. The vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light immediately drew them in. They could already imagine themselves spending cozy winter nights by the fireplace, laughing and sharing stories with their loved ones. The finished basement was an added bonus, offering space for entertaining. But it was the outdoors that truly captured the Aquino-Quintana family's hearts. The two-tier stone patio overlooking the backyard was the perfect spot for summer barbecues and family gatherings, while the nearby community pool offered the ultimate in summer fun. The community itself was a major selling point. The Aquino-Quintana family had always longed for a place where they could feel truly at home, and this neighborhood provided just that. From the nearby parks and trails to the warm, friendly neighbors, they knew that this was a place where they could build a life and create lasting memories. As they left the house that day, the Aquino-Quintana family felt a sense of hope that they hadn't felt in months. They knew that this was more than just a house. They could already envision themselves playing with their children in the backyard, hosting summer barbecues with friends, and enjoying long walks through the neighborhood with their beloved dog.
