Client Success Spotlight: A Heartfelt Homebuying Journey: Laura Cava Northrop
In my Client Success Spotlights, I shine a light on the incredible individuals I've had the opportunity to work with. Real estate isn’t about transactions or “sales”—it’s about people. It’s about embracing each client’s unique story, seeing them for the amazing individual they are, and helping them find a home that fits their personality and goals.
Here's Laura's Story:
Sometimes, the right home finds you when you least expect it, and the journey to securing it becomes deeply personal. For Laura Cava Northrop, that journey led her to a home in Jamaica Plain. A long-time Jamaica Plain resident, Laura had been searching for her permanent home for over two years before she saw this property.
Securing the property was no small feat, with three competitive offers—one higher and one in cash. But Laura’s thoughtful, authentic approach and our “no games” strategy made all the difference.
It wasn’t about lengthy negotiation; it was about intentional decision-making and authenticity. Expressing her love of the area, and her special connection with the space spoke to the seller.
Sometimes saying what you want, and why, will get you what you want.
As a dedicated professional at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Laura’s work in supportive oncology care reflects her deep compassion. She finds peace in the Arboretum and Emerald Necklace, treasures of Jamaica Plain. We showcased her ethos to the seller, highlighting Laura as the perfect fit for the home, and it paid off.
“It would be the perfect, cozy home to return to for restoration, especially with the tree canopy and lovely, vibrant garden,” she wrote. The natural beauty and peaceful environment felt like a home, aligning perfectly with her vision for the future.
Laura’s story is a beautiful reminder that finding the right home isn’t about playing games—it’s about intention, authenticity, and connection.
Through her heartfelt letter, genuine love for the neighborhood, and wonderful rapport with the neighbors, she secured her dream home against tough competition, proving that a thoughtful, real approach can make all the difference.
