Congratulations to my client on the purchase of her new home!!🎉

This transaction was one for the books- started as a backup offer turned accepted. Then we mutually released, and then went back to the discussion table where our second offer was accepted!

So excited for her and to see all of the vintage decor she puts in this beauty🏡🔑✨

Closing Day on a Friday means it’s gonna be a great weekend!!

Excited for my client to have the home of her dreams✨🔑🏡

I'm always open to checking out local spots, and this one is at the top of my list when others ask me "where is a good place to eat in Fenton?". They have a great menu that fits most dietary needs, and the staff is so helpful and friendly!

If you're in the downtown Fenton area, I highly recommend stopping in here to grab something sweet for you, and maybe even for your furry friend at home.

When you prepare your home for sale, it’s important to be able to detach from the house emotionally, so you can understand what buyers are looking for, and what their potential concerns may be.

If you need more information regarding steps toward listing your home, reach out to me for a free home consultation!📲

Fingers crossed for my sweet clients on this property 🤞🏼😁🤞🏼

Take a look at what's going on around the mitten this month!☀️

“O’er the land of the free,

Happy Independence Day❤️🤍💙🇺🇸

July seems to be the month for Patriotism, Art, and Elephant ears🇺🇸🎆🎨🖌🎠🎡

With June being "Home Ownership" month, it's beneficial to understand the perks of Renting vs. Buying a home.

Buying a home is a huge part of the American Dream. Choosing to buy or rent, though, is a major decision that affects your financial health, lifestyle, and personal goals. Whichever option you choose depends entirely on your lifestyle and financial situation.

Owning a home isn’t always better than renting, and renting is not always as simple as it seems. Here, I've highlighted some of the key differences between renting and buying:

In 1916 President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed June 14 as the official date for Flag Day, and in 1949 the U.S. Congress permanently established the date as National Flag Day 🇺🇸

Each year the U.S. president delivers an address that proclaims the week of June 14 as National Flag Week, and all Americans are encouraged to fly U.S. flags during that week!

Three reasons, of many, why you should choose to list your home with an agent (preferably me 😉) instead of going the independent route and choosing to go down the “For Sale By Owner” (FSBO) road:

1- Some Realtor’s may not show a FSBO home. Even if a client insists on seeing your property, the agent may discourage making an offer, citing the hassles and risks of trying to close the deal without a professional representing the seller.

2- Agents have access to large networks. Even if you have a large professional and personal network, those people will likely have little interest in spreading the word that your house is for sale.

And finally,

3- Exposure to legal risks. A LOT of legal paperwork is involved in a home sale, and it needs to be completed correctly by an expert. One of the most important items is the Seller’s Disclosure. A seller can be held liable for fraud, negligence, or breach of contract if they do not disclose properly.

Reach out to me today to learn more about the benefits of choosing me as your listing agent, versus the headache of FSBO.

What's going on this month in Michigan?

Here are a few events to get you excited for the warmer weather that's (hopefully🤞🏼) upon us!

When you sell your home yourself—also known as "for sale by owner” (FSBO)—it may seem like a great way to save thousands of dollars. You may think that acting as your own seller’s agent will surely be worth the savings.

Here are three reasons (of many!) why you may want to choose me as your representation, versus going the independent route.

Many people are often curious as to what a Buyers Agent could offer them while going through the searches of finding the perfect home. I'm here to explain FIVE reasons why working with me as your Buyers Agent will benefit you in the long run:

1.) It's 100% FREE! How you may ask?
--You don't pay me; I split the commission with the seller’s agent when the house is sold!
2.) I work for you, not the seller.
--Yes, I make money when you buy a home, but I also sign a form detailing my loyalty to you and ensuring that I will work hard for you to buy the right home at the right price. Remember, having your interest represented by me, will ensure that I will negotiate the best deal on your behalf.
3.) I am a personal property curator.
--What’s a personal property curator? In essence, it’s someone who handpicks the properties that you’ll like. Sure, you can look for properties on your own, but this is your first home search, right? Wouldn’t it be nice to have an extra pair of eyes to help you out?
4.) Insider knowledge.
-- Wouldn’t it be great to know about a home that’s going up for sale before it’s listed? I have access to properties not yet on the market. In many markets, transactions happen before the property ever hits the market. Some have had success in getting sellers to contact them before the property went on the market!
5.) Top price negotiators.
--For many people, buying a home is the single biggest purchase of their life. And negotiation can be like a poker game, where there are hundreds of thousands of dollars at stake. I have seen all the tricks in the trade, and I will help you figure out the best bidding and negotiation strategy. So you can get the right home at the right price.

Let me help you land the property you've been searching for, and bring you to the closing table!
