The Real Estate Dance with Host Camilla Rantsen Pushing Dirt
-
- Home & Garden
“I'm always very hardcore with my business,” says host Camilla Ransten. When Camilla fell in love with a house she intended to use as a workspace, she planned to buy the house in her company’s name. After a miscommunication led to the escrow paperwork being placed in her name instead, Camilla sought to correct the issue, which was more complicated than expected.
When Camilla first realized that the paperwork was in her name, she immediately contacted the escrow company to address the problem. Although adjusting the paperwork seemed like a simple task, her escrow contact insisted that Camilla close under her name that day. Camilla relented against her better judgment, but later struggled to transfer the house’s title. Eventually, she decided to take matters into her own hands and go straight to the source: the Department of Housing. Through this story, Camilla reminds her audience to always advocate for themselves during their real estate journeys.
Tune into this week’s episode of Pushing Dirt for an eye-opening real estate story. Learn more about Camilla’s search for answers, dealing with different personalities, and never underestimating the emotional side of real estate.
