This one is a little more personal. ❤️

Congratulations to my son and daughter-in-law on the purchase of their new home!

Getting to be part of this with you — not just as Mom, but as your Realtor® — made this one pretty special.

I’m so excited to see you make this house your home and start this next chapter together.

Congratulations, Connor & Alex. I couldn’t be happier for you both. 🏡❤️

How to lose a house in 10 days — Buyer Edition. 🏠

You found the house. You love the house.

Now, here are 10 surprisingly effective ways to make sure you DON'T get the house. 😂

1️⃣ Buy a new car.
Because apparently the best time to take on a giant new monthly payment is right before your lender checks your finances.

2️⃣ Open a few new credit cards.
Save the points. Your mortgage approval is worth more.

3️⃣ Quit or change your job.
Even if you've been dreaming about it for months… maybe wait until after closing. And definitely talk to your lender first.

4️⃣ Spend the money you've set aside for closing.
Your down payment isn't the only cash you'll need. Keep that money where it belongs.

5️⃣ Finance an entire house full of furniture.
I know you can already picture the sectional in the family room. Buy it after you get the keys.

6️⃣ Lowball every house because “you never know.”
Sometimes a lower offer makes perfect sense. Sometimes it just helps another buyer get the house.

7️⃣ Wait…and wait…and wait.
You should never be rushed into buying a home. But while you're deciding, someone else may be writing the offer.

8️⃣ Forget about your deadlines.
Financing. Inspection. Conditions. These dates aren't suggestions.

9️⃣ Turn the home inspection into a renovation wishlist.
A serious defect? Absolutely address it.
A perfectly functional older bathroom you don't like? That's different.

🔟 Start looking before you know what you can comfortably afford.
Falling in love with an $850,000 house when your comfortable budget is $725,000 is not a fun way to start.

Buying a home isn't just about finding the one.
It's knowing how to actually get from “I love this house” to “I have the keys.” 🔑

📌 Save this before you start house hunting — or send it to someone who's thinking about buying.

Sometimes wanting to move isn't really about the house.

When life changes — divorce, loss, an empty nest, or a future that suddenly looks very different from the one you planned — your home can start to feel different too.

And when you're in survival mode, doing something can feel better than doing nothing.

Selling can feel like a fresh start.

A way forward.

A way to take back some control.

And selling may absolutely be the right decision.

But before you decide, there's another question worth asking:
What am I actually feeling today?

Am I unhappy with the house itself?

Or am I struggling with what this house represents now that my life has changed?

Those two things can feel very similar — but they can lead to very different decisions.

Sometimes the first decision isn't whether to stay or sell. It's understanding what's really driving the desire to make a change.

That's why “What are you feeling today?” is the very first question in Chapter 1 of my Your Next Chapter Workbook.
