Palmyra to Hummelstown · Shelby & Jordan
More Room for Their Family. A Plan for Both Homes.
Shelby and Jordan were ready for more space for their family of four. They contacted Team Becker with a question many homeowners face: how do you sell your current home and buy the next one without letting the timing take over?
David and Carin Becker started with a video conference that fit their busy schedules. Together, they mapped out the buying and selling process, clarified priorities and connected Shelby and Jordan with trusted local professionals—from a preferred lender to a home inspector, settlement company and even movers.
After touring numerous properties, they found the one: a spacious single-family home in Hummelstown, on a beautiful lot in a neighborhood that fit what they wanted for their next chapter.
The Right Home. A Tight Window.
The home had just hit the market. David and Carin helped Shelby and Jordan put together an offer during the first weekend, with terms that allowed time to sell their Palmyra townhome. The offer was accepted.
Not long afterward, their townhome was under contract with a cash buyer. With both transactions moving forward, the team coordinated the details to keep the transition on time.
The result: a seamless move from their Palmyra townhome to the larger Hummelstown home they were ready to call their own.
In Their Own Words
We had an amazing experience working with David and Carin! From the very beginning, David clearly explained the entire buying and selling process, so we always knew what to expect. He was incredibly patient, always willing to show us properties, and never made us feel pressured.
Every professional he recommended—from our lender to our home inspector—was excellent, making the entire process seamless and stress-free. Most importantly, David and Carin were kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about helping us find the perfect home. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

A sale. A purchase. A fresh start. · Ashley White
A Fresh Plan. A New Beginning.
After her home sat on the market with little activity, Ashley took it off the market. Frustrated and uncertain, she was ready to put her next-home dream on hold.
Then she answered a call from Aaron Mayersky. What changed her outlook? A clear plan, backed by data—and someone willing to listen to every hesitation and answer every “what if.”
A Plan She Could Believe In.
Aaron helped Ashley work through both the sale of her house and the purchase of her next home. Through the questions, obstacles and stressful moments, she says he stayed communicative, honest and committed from start to finish.
The result: Ashley moved into her new home with renewed confidence—and a dream realized.
Aaron’s Perspective
Aaron recalls that Ashley rarely answers calls from unknown numbers. For him, her story is a reminder that a discouraging experience can make it hard to try again—and that listening, building confidence and following through can help someone take the next step.
In Her Own Words
A little over four months ago, I never imagined I’d be writing this from my new home.
After my house sat on the market with very little movement, I decided to take it off. I was frustrated, uncertain, and honestly ready to put the dream on hold. Then, by complete accident (or maybe divine timing), I answered a phone call from a realtor I had never worked with before. Instead of giving me empty promises, he showed up with a plan.
He listened to every hesitation I had, came prepared with data, answered every “what if,” and gave me confidence when I wasn’t sure what the next step should be. More importantly, he did exactly what he said he would do. Through every obstacle, every unexpected hurdle, every question, and every stressful moment, he was there—from start to finish.
This experience reminded me that sometimes you have to trust the process, take a leap of faith, and believe that things will unfold exactly as they’re meant to. What felt like setbacks were really just part of the journey leading me to where I was supposed to be. Today, I’m officially in my new home, and I couldn’t be more grateful.
Thank you, Aaron Mayersky, for your professionalism, honesty, patience, and relentless dedication. You didn’t just help me buy and sell a house—you helped make a dream become reality. I am incredibly thankful for everything you did along the way, and I would recommend you without hesitation to anyone looking for someone who truly advocates for their clients.

Your Questions, Answered.
Can I make an offer before my current home sells?
Sometimes. The options depend on your financing, the property and what the seller will accept. Shelby and Jordan’s offer allowed time to sell their townhome; every transaction needs its own plan.
Should I buy first or sell first?
We’ll help you compare the tradeoffs around your budget, available homes and timing. Your lender can clarify what financing is available before you choose a sequence.
Can both closings happen close together?
That may be possible when everyone’s requirements and schedules align. We’ll coordinate with the transaction professionals and discuss a backup plan for any timing gap.
Two transactions. One next chapter.
