JUST SOLD! 🥳
I am so happy for my sellers as they close a big chapter of their lives and start a whole new (and much different) one as they pack up, move and get to enjoy a much deserved slower lifestyle. It has been a absolute joy and honor assisting them during this process.🥰

Hello May🌷
Today is the day we start fresh and new!

Every day is a new opportunity if you have the right mindset. What new opportunity are you opening yourself up to today?

It’s not always easy to sell the home in which you have spent many years, or raised your children in, I get it. 👪
But it’s important to put the emotions on a back-burner when putting your house on the market. That’s why having an honest, reliable Realtor (Me!) on your side is paramount. 👋

Below are my recommendations during the sale process:

🔸Do not allow your emotions to take center stage. Selling your home can be time-consuming and an emotional rollercoaster
🔸You have made memories in your home, you feel a sense of belonging and you get defensive when potential buyers critique your home
🔸Being emotional once your property is already listed on the market and potential buyers are stopping in for showings and open houses, can be devastating to the selling process
🔸Try to schedule showings and open houses while you are away…it will help ease the emotional responses and stressors

Expecting a big tax return this year? Rather than letting it sit in your bank account, why not let it work for you?

Does Staging your front porch help you sell your home faster? You bet! Remember… You only get one first impression with potential buyers. Also who doesn’t love a good front porch on a warm spring day?

A few ways to stage your front porch:

🔸 Make sure it’s clean of debris, bugs, etc.
🔸 A good scrub or power-wash goes a long way
🔸 Clean your front windows
🔸 Make sure they’re free of spider webs and handprints.
🔸 Add a new doormat and plants that welcome people into your home.
🔸 A fresh coat of paint on your front door adds a finishing touch to your entrance.

So…When preparing your home to list on the market, don’t overlook the impact curb appeal can add in drawing buyers’ interest.

Do you have a friend or family member who’s in the process of buying a home or just closed on one? Finding the perfect gift to say, ‘congrats!’ can be overwhelming!

Do you get something that’s practical? Something personalized? Something fun, that’s so “them”?

Here’s a shortlist of my personal faves to help get those wheels turning!

🔸 Custom Return Address Stamp: cute, personalized, and practical, all in one!
🔸 Wine Subscription: why give one bottle when you can gift a year’s worth?
🔸 Indoor Herb Garden: inspire their green thumb and inner chef all at once.
🔸 Essential Oils / Diffuser: keep their home fresh and calm
🔸 Engraved Cutting Board: we all use cutting boards, so why not make it extra special by getting their family name and homebuying year engraved as a keepsake?

What other housewarming gifts have you found to be a hit?

Once you’ve made the decision to buy a home, the next thing you’ll need to think about is where you want to buy.

You may already have an idea of a specific city or neighborhood that seems ideal, but be sure to do your research to figure out all that the area has to offer for your current and future (if you plan on living there for quite some time) needs.

Below I’ve listed some key factors to consider before that next viewing:



✔️Does the house have easy access to popular places?
✔️Are there good schools nearby?
✔️What about enjoyable scenery?
✔️How good is the access to public transit or the freeway?
✔️Does the area have future potential for appreciation?

As a first-time homebuyer, you probably have a lot of questions circling your mind. So, let’s get them answered!

Here are some top questions (and answers!) first-time buyers typically ask:

✅ How do I know if it’s time to buy instead of rent?
If you know where you want to live, have a steady and secure income, and are ready for the responsibilities of homeownership, then it’s a great time to invest in property.

✅ What does the lender need from me to give me a loan?
Usually, you are asked to provide your last two tax returns to show proof of income. You should also provide recent bank and credit card statements and proof of your current pay rate. You will also be asked for your social security number so they can run a credit check.

✅ How do I know if I qualify for a loan and how much I can afford?
Contact a mortgage lender to get pre-approval for a loan. The lender will ask you some basic questions about your income and debts and can tell you what amount you can be approved for, and how much your mortgage payments will be. Ask me for my lender recommendations!

✅ How much do I need to save up for a down payment?
A conventional loan down payment is usually 20% of the sales price, but other types of financing require as little as 3.5% to 15%. A mortgage lender can tell you what types of loans you qualify for.

These are all questions that are important and can vary greatly. However, rest assured the first step to answering all of these questions and more is by contacting me today so we can put away some of those concerns and finally set your mind at ease. 😌
