Thank you to my clients for these reviews! It means the world! 🌟

Congratulations to both of my clients on closing on their properties!! 🏡✨

18 Burnt Mill Road - SOLD $60,000 OVER ASKING PRICE 💰
My seller contacted me years ago to help find tenants for his property. It operated as an Airbnb in the summer and was occupied by short term tenants in the off season. This spring, he contacted me looking to sell so we took it to the market. I was able to get him an amazing price for the property and we had an exteremly smooth transaction!

412 Post Road - A GREAT DEAL FOR MY BUYERS 👏
My buyers from Texas were looking for an investment property near Wells and Ogunquit beaches. We looked at a couple places while they were in town and found the perfect place. I was able to negotiate them a great deal. They purchased well below the original listing price, and I was able to negotiate a few repairs on the house into the contract for them as well.

I am extremely happy for both parties, and very grateful for the trust they put in me to go to work for them! If you are looking to buy or sell, reach out to me today so we can start making steps to achieving your goals!

Asking your lender this ONE question could save you big.

Does my loan have a pre-payment penalty? Making just ONE extra payment each year can shave years off your mortgage term and save you thousands in interest.

Let’s look at a client with a 30-year mortgage of $400,000 at a 6% interest rate. Without extra payments, the total interest paid over the loan term is approximately $463,353. With ONE extra payment of $2,400 each year ($200/mo) the interest drops to $368,734, and the loan would be paid off 5 years earlier than the original term. And the savings hitting their pocket? $94,619 over the life of the loan.
Make sure to ask your lender about pre-payment penalties (penalties can be steep - often 2% of the loan balance).

And if you need a lender recommendation, send me a message!

Congratulations to my Seller for putting her property Under Contract! 🌊🏡 If you need help with the buying or selling process, don't hesitate to reach out!

Coffee & Contracts ☕️❄️

I love stopping into local coffee shops to get work done, especially when I have a full day on the road! Elements in Biddeford offers SO much more than just coffee. It’s a local favorite you’re going to want to check out. Other than their coffee and espresso drinks, you will find tea, local craft beer, wine, and a food menu with gluten free options. You must try their bagels! They offer a wide selection of used books, and host a variety of social events and live music each week. It’s a go to spot when in downtown Biddeford, don’t forget to check it out! 🙌

Congratulations to my First Time Home Buyer and also one of my best friends for closing on his new home! 🤩 It took 20 days from the day he mentioned to me he was interested in buying a home to our closing day. We had a super fast and smooth transaction and all parties are so happy! Thank you to the listing agent Jessica Mongue for being so amazing to work with, and to X5 Home Loans for the speedy approval! We truly had the dream team on this one! 😊

Picture this: You've found your dream home, but so have others. How do you make sure your offer stands out?

Easy. That's where I come in, with a proven strategy to help you come out on top. Here’s what that looks like:

Writing a professional summary email.
I start by crafting a one-page summary of your offer's key terms. This isn't just about making it easier for the listing agent; it's about showcasing our professionalism and attention to detail.

Understanding the seller's priorities.
It’s surprising how many agents skip this step. A simple conversation with the listing agent can reveal what the sellers value most, allowing us to tailor your offer to their specific needs.

Fast-tracking the closing.
While others might propose 45 day closings, I aim for a 30 day close. By teaming up with the right mortgage lender, we can accelerate the process, boosting your offer's appeal without raising the price.

Remember, it's not just about how much you offer but how you offer it. If you're looking to make a move in the real estate market in 2024, let's chat about how we can make your offer one they can't refuse!

Last closing of 2023! 🎉

Congratulations to my Sellers for closing on their property. This was our third transaction together! We had such a smooth process, all parties are so happy.

Next year my plan is to double the amount of families that I helped this year. If you know of anyone looking to buy or sell at any point in the future, I would love the opportunity to talk with them. Happy New Year!

Ever wonder why some people seem to stumble upon great home deals while others don’t? It’s not just luck.

Here are two insider tips for getting a deal on your next home. ⬇️

1️⃣ Homes with Higher Days on Market - You know those houses that seem like they’ve been on the market forever? Maybe they’re slightly overpriced, or the listing photos didn’t showcase their potential. A keen eye and a bit of patience can unveil their true value. Plus, the longer a house stays on the market, the more likely the seller is to negotiate on the price.

2️⃣ Homes that Have Fallen Out of Contract - When one deal falls through, it might pave the way for a better one. Owners of these homes are typically eager to sell, giving you the upper hand in negotiations.

Keep these tips in your back pocket, and the next time you’re in the market, remember that the best buys may be the ones you originally overlooked.

DM me if you want to know more about these strategies, or have a specific question about home buying!

Congratulations to my Buyer for closing on her home in Maine! It has been her dream to move to Maine for a number of years. We began working together last fall, and we finally found a property that was perfect for her. She is so sweet and deserving of this, I'm so happy I could be part of her journey!
