Larry Rose puts a lot of love into everything he does. A long-time resident of Odenton’s Piney Orchard community, Larry recently decided to move down south to enjoy his retirement.

Jerry met Larry several years ago when Larry was volunteering his time on The Courts Homeowners Association Board.

Sold in Severn to Support a Charitable Cause

Jerry helped the seller save $37,125 on the transaction.

This home, located at 1312 Lone Pine Trail in Severn, Maryland, was recently sold by Jerry Kline, listing agent, Keller Williams Flagship of Maryland. The home was donated to the Sterling Charitable Gift Fund Trust several years ago, and the trust recently chose Jerry to liquidate the asset to more fully support the group’s mission.

The recent sale of Jerry Kline’s listing at 1312 Lone Pine Trail in Severn, Maryland, has extra special meaning for those involved. Many needy people will benefit from the sale of the home because the seller, an IRS Section 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, will use the sale proceeds to bolster the organization’s philanthropic mission.

Jerry’s listing client, Sterling Charitable Gift Fund Trust, is an organization established to promote a variety of educational and cultural projects and provide emergency relief funds to those in need. The home was donated to the group several years ago, and the trust recently chose Jerry to liquidate the asset to more fully support the group’s mission.

The kitchen of 1312 Lone Pine Trail in Severn, Maryland. The home was recently sold by Jerry Kline, realtor, Keller Williams Flagship of Maryland. Jerry was able to help the non-profit avoid a $37,125 charge by facilitating a partial state property sales tax waiver for the seller.

Because the trust’s administrators are located outside Maryland, they needed help preparing the property for sale. So, Jerry worked to line up various contractors to tackle the painting, flooring and miscellaneous repair work. The end result was an updated and appealing colonial-style home that generated maximum funds for the group’s mission.

One particular step Jerry took saved the group $37,125 on the transaction. The state of Maryland normally charges an extra 8.25 percent property sales tax on homes sold by owners who live outside the state. But Jerry was able to help the non-profit avoid that charge by facilitating a partial property sales tax waiver for the client. Obtaining the waiver was tricky and time consuming. But the end result means more needy people will benefit from the additional sale proceeds.

Many thanks and congratulations to the trust’s administrators for making the project happen! It was a real pleasure working with you.

Helping a Parent Transition to Assisted Living . . .

A third-floor unit in this condo building, located at 118 Mountain Road in Glen Burnie, Maryland, was recently sold by Jerry Kline, realtor, Keller Williams Flagship of Maryland. Jerry was contacted by the condo owner’s daughter, who sought help selling the unit so her father could transition to an assisted living facility.

Beth M. contacted Jerry Kline with a challenge: her father’s poor health meant he could no longer climb the stairs to his third-floor condo home in Glen Burnie, Maryland. It was time for her dad to move to an assisted-living facility, and Beth needed to sell her dad’s condo quickly, so he could complete the transition to his new home.

Having worked with Jerry on a previous real estate project, Beth called Jerry to sell the condo. The property was in rather poor condition, but Jerry was able to garner an all-cash offer for the home – at full listing price. Beth then used the proceeds from the sale to get her dad settled in his new place.

Beth & Jerry worked together during a very stressful period for her dad to accomplish an important goal for the family. Thanks, Beth, for choosing Jerry as your listing agent!

Jerry Kline Helps a Client Sell His Bowie Home, Buy Another in Davidsonville

Jerry Kline (right), realtor, Keller Williams Flagship of Maryland, appears with multi-transaction clients Matt & Gail. Jerry recently helped Matt & Gail sell their long-time home in Bowie, Maryland, and purchase a new home in the pastoral Anne Arundel County community of Davidsonville.

Matt J. was exploring the back roads of Davidsonville on his motorcycle one day last spring when he suddenly started thinking about what it would be like to live there. Characterized by large, wooded lots, winding, two-lane roads and dozens of pastoral horse farms, Davidsonville is a place that draws people who seek a quieter, slower way of life.

So, Matt & his wife, Gail, decided to make a change. They contacted Jerry Kline, realtor, Keller Williams Flagship of Maryland, to help them sell their Bowie home and purchase a new property in Davidsonville’s Harbor Hills community. Both transactions recently closed.

"Jerry was our realtor for both the purchase of our new home and the sale of our existing home,” Matt said. “My wife and I were both extremely happy with him. He is very knowledgeable and professional, and importantly, he is organized and extremely responsive.”

The series of transactions was particularly complex because the purchase of Matt’s new home was done as part of a corporate relocation, which added several other parties and layers of paperwork to the project.

“Jerry kept track of everything that needed to be done to make both our home purchase and sale as smooth as possible,” Matt said. “He reached out to us without delay when appropriate and was always quick to respond when we reached out to him. He will be our first choice if/when we move again."

Congratulations on your new home purchase, Matt & Gail! Davidsonville is a wonderful community, and we’re sure you’re going to love living there!
