Perfect buyers

I just had the most pleasant experience with first time buyers.  Obviously, I can't tell you who they are but they fit the "first time buyer" mold perfectly.  This is what they did:
1)  Went to a lender and received pre-approval financing which told them what price range of a home they should be looking at.
2)  Asked friends and family for a recommendation for a Realtor - Woot-woot, that's where I come in!
3)  I put them on an automatic search through MLS to receive e-mails on listings with their requirements.
4)  They and I communicated via e-mail on what listings they wanted to see.
5)  We looked at homes, about 3-5 for each outing and began the elimination process of absolute no's and maybe's.
6)  After 24 homes, (sounds like a lot but in reality since there are a lot of homes for sale in our area, this was reasonable). Voila!  They found their favorite.
7)  They brought their parents through the home. (almost everyone wants a second opinion or approval/blessing so to speak)
8)  Wrote the offer, negotiated, and acceptance!

Thank you S & L, you were/are a delight to work for!
