Time for a Kansas City market update! 📣

Here are some current market stats for buyers and sellers to keep in mind:
✔️ Homes sold = 3,539
✔️ Average price = $368,166
✔️ Average days on market = 32
✔️ Month's supply =2.2

Ever wonder what month's supply means? Well...essentially if no more homes were to come on the market we wouldn't run out of homes to buy for approximately 2.2 months.

If you have any questions about what these market updates mean for you and your goals to buy or sell, send us a DM! We'd love to connect. 📧

Well...Shane Tyler and Kimberly Downs know how to throw a party!
We had such a fun night filled with laughter, dancing, bubbles, hanging with each other (and the Minions) on one of the most beautiful evenings this summer. Thanks to all who came out. We loved getting to see you!
Special shout out to KC Bubble Guy for his bubble skills. It was a HIT!!!

That’s right — I’m not here to be salesy and pressure you into moving, and I don't care if you want to continue renting, either. Whether you’re thinking about buying or selling or just have questions about the market, I’m here for you. My goal is to be a resource and guide always, no strings attached.
... and NO, you are not wasting my time.

Have a question about what improvements have the best return in the event that you sell? Wondering what your current equity position is? Curious to understand the first steps of the homebuying process? Trying to figure out what you can afford?

Important discussions are necessary so that you can understand all of your options in order to find the best route for your unique situation.

Let me be your resource — I'm just a text, call, or DM away!

When trying to achieve a goal, remember to take consistent action, and don't expect the road to be free of bumps, bruises, or detours. Every small step brings you closer, and it's the journey and the consistent effort that truly count.

Perfection is an illusion, and striving for perfection sets you up for failure. Striving for progress over perfection means being relentless in learning, growing, evolving, and improving.

So embrace each challenge, celebrate every win, and keep moving forward.

When it comes to protecting your home and what is likely your largest investment, having a personal connection with your homeowner’s insurance agent can make a world of difference.

Knowing your home insurance agent personally ensures your home is well-protected and gives you peace of mind, knowing a reliable professional is looking out for your best interests. Schedule a face-to-face meeting and take the time to get to know your agent—you'll appreciate the benefits that come with it.

Swipe for just a few reasons why you should get to know your insurance agent personally. →

Don't get me wrong; I love a "to do list," but life is about the moments we cherish, not just the tasks we check off. Let this be your sign to prioritize joy, embrace spontaneity, and be present in the now.

Celebrate the little wins and create memories that will last a lifetime. Instead of getting bogged down by endless to-do lists, focus on making each day special.

What memory will you make today?

Here’s a hard truth: Your first home probably won't be your forever home. In fact, the average homeowner spends about 8 years in their home and will own at least three houses in their lifetime. Dreams change, life happens, and sometimes (especially in our current market), your "dream home" may be out of reach.

So, instead of stressing over finding the "perfect" house, consider looking for a "good for me right now" home.

Still not convinced? Here’s why it's something you should consider...

➀ Flexibility: Your needs and lifestyle can change over time. A "right now" home gives you the flexibility to adapt and move as your circumstances change.

➁ Equity Growth: Starting with a more affordable home can be a smart financial move —
you can build equity and potentially upgrade to your dream home down the road.

➂ Less Pressure: Focusing on a "right now" home can reduce the pressure to find something perfect and can allow you to actually enjoy the home-buying process without feeling overwhelmed.

➃ Room to Grow: A "right now" home doesn’t mean settling. You can still find a place that meets your needs and provides room to grow and make it your own.

Ready to find the right home for you right now? Reach out! I'd love to help put together a plan to get you moving.

Reminder! Your monthly homeowner checklist ✔️

Besides being the hottest month of the year, August is a time of transition — vacation season is winding down, and the school year is about to begin ... making it the ideal time to clean out your closet and donate any old or unwanted clothes, as most people are shopping for back-to-school outfits.

Start getting organized for the school year by adding a drop center in the entryway, organizing the kids' workspace, and creating a shared family calendar.

And don't forget to enjoy the final few weeks of summer! ☀️

Save this post for later and pick 1 or 2 off the list every weekend! What are you tackling first?

It can be challenging to have your home on the market while still living there. Showing requests can pop up at any time, and while you might receive ample notice for some, others may only give you a 30-minute heads-up before potential buyers arrive — and every showing counts.

Here are a few quick tips I give my sellers that will help you get your home show-ready in 30 minutes or less! →

PRO TIP: Before you head out the door, do a quick walkthrough to make sure you didn’t miss anything major. Remember, it doesn’t have to be perfect!

Everyone knows the expression, "Find a job you love, and you won't work a day in your life." While I don't know if that is completely true, I can say this: I absolutely love being a real estate agent and the joy it brings me every day.

My days are long and varied, I often work weekends, my schedule revolves around my clients, and paychecks are never guaranteed. That being said, the pros FAR outweigh the cons.

I get to surround myself with people I deeply admire and enjoy while constantly creating new, lasting relationships and friendships. I get to help people during some of the most significant moments of their lives. I am constantly learning and overcoming new challenges. And SO much more (but I won't bore you).

Typically, there will be at least one or two rounds of back-and-forth negotiations. Be prepared because waiting for a response can be a nail-biting experience.
