Many people assume that newly built homes are more expensive than existing ones (houses that have already been lived in), but that’s not always the case. In fact, exploring newly built homes can sometimes lead to more cost-effective options, especially today. Hard to believe, right? But the data doesn’t lie....

Some days, I can't help but love my job. I had the privilege of assisting a wonderful client who recently faced the heartbreaking loss of her husband. Navigating this transition alone was daunting for her, and I knew my role had to extend far beyond just a real estate transaction.
From our very first meeting, it was clear that this journey would require more than the usual services. Together, we set up her new bank account, ensuring she had the financial stability to move forward. I coordinated with professional cleaners and arranged property bids, making sure every detail was taken care of.
Understanding the importance of family support, I worked closely with her loved ones to ensure everyone was comfortable with each step we took. We spent hours together, going through paperwork in her home, discussing offers, and negotiating contracts that would be best for her circumstances.
During inspections, we worked tirelessly to negotiate terms that were fair and beneficial for both parties. This wasn't just about closing a deal; it was about ensuring my client felt secure and supported every step of the way.
At closing, she handed me a card titled "Above and Beyond," expressing that I was the "key" to keeping everything moving smoothly. Along with her heartfelt words, she gifted me this beautiful quartz bracelet with a key charm. Looking at this card, this gift, is such a reminder of why I do what I do.
Being a realtor is not just about properties; it's about people. It's about going above and beyond, offering a shoulder to lean on, and being there through every challenge and triumph. To my incredible client, thank you for trusting me with such an important chapter of your life. Your strength and grace have been inspiring, and it has been an honor to support you.
