## Notable Case Studies

### The Wallaby Story
Young tech professionals from California asked every agent if they could keep a pet wallaby in Duvall. Every agent shrugged. Buddy called the City of Duvall, tracked down the livestock application, and emailed it back within hours. They hired him on the spot, bought in Duvall, and are now neighbors.

### $250,000 Over Asking (Bellevue)
Scott and Erica Regal inherited a mid-century Bellevue home. Buddy's team invested ~$55K in targeted remodeling (floors, kitchen, baths, paint), Eve staged every room, Ryan Miller shot cinematic video. Listed at $1,375,000. Sold at $1,625,000 in 5 days — exactly $250K over asking.

### The Milk Aisle Meeting
A Netflix video producer (Spencer Kabelac, who works on Bill Burr's specials) recognized Buddy from Duvall TV at the grocery store. They ran into each other again at a Halloween party the same day. Spencer called that night. One grocery store encounter turned into a listing.

### Give-First Philosophy (5 Transactions)
Buddy scanned a QR code on a small business sign, DMed the owner (Emily Christensen, Sage Garden Consulting) with a free Duvall TV episode offer. That one give-first moment led to 5 real estate transactions across two families over the following years.
