Mortgage rates drop to lowest since February 2023 after Fed’s jumbo interest rate cut | CNN Business Mortgage rates continued to decline this week, taking a little more pressure off America’s tight housing market as the Federal Reserve ramps up its efforts to keep the economy on an even keel.

𝗨𝗡𝗗𝗘𝗥 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗧! Congrats Bill and Ann 👏 This home is so beautiful—straight out of a country living magazine. If anyone remembers Violet the horse from my story post last week—she is now officially moving on to her new home! 😉

𝙐𝙉𝘿𝙀𝙍 𝘾𝙊𝙉𝙏𝙍𝘼𝘾𝙏! Talk about curb appeal on this one! When these lovely past clients called me ready to move again, their cute little son made my day and yelled in the background of the phone call, “I’m so glad Chelsea gets to help us move again!” Me too buddy, me too! 😍 Congrats!

Congrats to my buyer who went under contract on this home! Let’s all say a quick prayer for him though: he’s moving to Dells from Florida and has only driven in snow once. 😆 Also, thank you Blake (a great past client) for referring him to me. This is the best compliment! ❤️

𝗨𝗡𝗗𝗘𝗥 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗧! 🎉 We're happy for our clients who took the time to find the right property for their next stage of life. With a growing family they needed a bit more space and were patient through the process of finding their next home! Congratulations!

1) Taking professional listing photos in the fall when the grass is still green, the trees still have leaves, the landscaping is lush and the planters are full will showcase your home in its best light and captivate potential buyers.

2) Decluttering can be an overwhelming process. If you know you’re selling well in advance, you can benefit from this additional time to clear out the items you no longer need in your home.

3) Any seasonal items you won’t use can be officially packed up. If you sell your home in the spring, you can pack any summer-related items since you’ll ideally be moved out by the following summer.

4) With time on your side, you can begin assessing your home to determine what should be repaired before you list your home.

5) Doing landscaping work now will help reduce the amount of work you need to invest in landscaping and curb appeal when your home is on the market.

𝐂𝐋𝐎𝐒𝐄𝐃! 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐲 𝐛𝐮𝐲𝐞𝐫𝐬! Did you know that we help you find/work with FSBO’s too? We stumbled on this adorable home at exactly the right time and worked with some great sellers! Everyone was happy and I'm excited for my buyers to get into this home.

🎉 UNDER CONTRACT for our seller! 🎉 Fun story on this one- the buyer looked at this house about 6 weeks ago, decided they wanted it, and put their house on the market to see if they could time it all correctly.

Buyers came along who decided they wanted to buy THEIR house but they also had to put their house on the market to see if it could time out correctly for everyone- and it did!

Moral of the story: it can feel overwhelming to think about having to sell and buy with the right timing but here is a perfect example of how it can work out great when it is all meant to be ☺️

𝗨𝗡𝗗𝗘𝗥 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗧! Some deals we have to fight a little harder than others to put together- but we got it done! Thankful my clients put their trust in me and at the end of the day, they can’t wait to move into this home.💕

COME ON OUT TODAY FOR THIS OPEN HOUSE!
This adorable home is ready for its' next family. Is that you? Come peek today from 12-1pm!

𝗖𝗟𝗢𝗦𝗘𝗗! 🏡 🎉 Congratulations, Seth, for closing on your first home! Seth took advantage of the 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗱𝘀 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺 and was able to save a lot of money by doing that! I’m so excited for you to start your home ownership journey and to be building equity in your own home!

One of my favorite things is when both sides of a transaction are thrilled and the sellers leave the buyer an adorable welcome basket 💕 just when I’m about to lose faith in humanity… 😂😍

We're always here to help, (and the advice is free.) 😂

𝟭. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺’𝘀 𝘀𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲?
Lighting and room size can play a huge role when selecting the perfect paint color for your room. Rooms that have little natural lighting and are small may need to avoid rich tones. These spaces can feel dingy, cluttered, and moody if colors are selected from a darker palette. However, large open rooms with plenty of natural light can feel empty. A more intimate space may be created with a darker tone.

𝟮. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺’𝘀 𝗽𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲?
Different colors can evoke different moods, so choose a hue that aligns with the room’s purpose. Soft or warm, cozy tones are perfect for bedrooms and resting at the end of a long day. Energetic and lively tones are ideal for playrooms, kitchens, and workout spaces.

𝟯. 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗿 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲?
Everyone has a different sense of style, and everyone has their own personal color preferences. If you don’t plan to sell in the near future, choose a color that fits your mood and style, but be aware that it may take some extra elbow grease to repaint when the time comes to put your home on the market.

Thanks Melissa!
