Here is a short list of things to look for when you are viewing a property you might buy. A seasoned real estate agent by your side helps too! Contact me today for a list of homes available in your area.

A seller’s net sheet is a document that carefully estimates how much cash you will receive once you subtract the expenses associated with selling your home. A qualified & knowledgeable agent will be able to run a comparative market analysis report and price your home just right for the market conditions.

A staged home will sell for 17% more on average than a non-staged home, and 95% of staged homes sell in 11 days or less. That is statistically 87% faster than non-staged homes! If you’ve been on the fence about staging to sell, here is your sign.

Tax season doesn't always have to be a bad thing! Are you thinking about buying a home? The best time to do it is when you get your tax refund. Keep that in mind as you begin filing your taxes. Not sure how much you need to put down? Message me and let's chat!

A title is a bundle of rights that encompasses all of the rights on a piece of property held by the homeowner. A home’s title tells us who legally owns it and who has a claim to the property.

When it comes to buying a home, keep in mind that a needs vs. wants checklist is only one aspect of the entire home buying plan. Many other steps are required - understanding the home buying timeline, financing, and finding an agent that suits your needs!

If you love it and can see yourself living there, don’t hesitate to put an offer on it, especially in this market! Have you ever missed out on a home you loved because you waited to put an offer on it?

If budget wasn’t a factor, what are you turning the spare room in your home into? Let us know what you would love to have in your home in the comments!

If an appraisal comes back low, a buyer can potentially go back to the seller and negotiate a lower sale price. If the seller refuses, the buyer could end up walking away from the home completely. Hire an agent who can help you through the process if this happens!

If you’re a homeowner, share in the comments when you bought your first home. If you purchased that same home in today’s market, how different do you think your purchase price would be?

Is sustainability a part of your New Year’s resolution? If you’ve started making changes, share in the comments how you are making your home and your lifestyle more sustainable!
