🌧️ Des Moines has definitely been getting its share of rain this week!

Heavy rain can expose small problems around your home before you even realize they’re there. A few quick checks—gutters, drainage, sump pumps, windows, and your foundation—can help prevent a BIG and expensive headache later.

🏠 Take a few minutes today to walk around your home and make sure that water is going away from your house, not toward it.

And as always, if you have questions about your home, its value, or the local real estate market, I’m here to help!

This one feels a little different. ❤️

I would love to simply say CONGRATULATIONS to my sellers on an accepted offer! 🎉🏡 But if I’m being truthful, this transaction is a little emotional for me.

I know how much this property means to them. This isn’t just a house, some buildings, and a piece of land. It’s years of blood, sweat, tears, hard work, love, family, and memories.

They took a property that started as not much and turned it into something truly special. A place where family gathered, friends became family, celebrations were held, projects were completed, and countless memories were made.
And you can see that love everywhere you look. ❤️ It’s in the buildings they built and cared for. It’s in the beautiful grounds. It’s in every tree, every flower bed, and every single landscape rock.

Sometimes selling isn’t because you have to sell—or even because you really want to. Sometimes life simply tells you that it’s time for the next chapter.

So while this one comes with a few tears and a whole lot of emotions, I couldn’t be happier for my sellers.
Here’s to honoring everything you built, every memory made here, and to even bigger and better things ahead. 🥂❤️

Congratulations on your ACCEPTED OFFER!

It has truly been an honor to be trusted with a property that means so much.
On to the next chapter… ❤️🏡

🚨 BUC-EE’S IN IOWA?! 🦫❤️💛
Okay, Iowa… THIS could be a big deal! 👀

There’s a push to bring Buc-ee’s to Iowa, with Urbandale being discussed.
If you’ve ever been to a Buc-ee’s, you KNOW. 😂

The brisket. The Beaver Nuggets. The snacks. The ridiculously clean bathrooms. And somehow you walk in for gas and come out $100 later. 🤣

But here’s the real question…
👇 WOULD YOU WANT A BUC-EE’S IN THE DES MOINES METRO?
🔥 YES — Bring on the Beaver Nuggets!
😳 NO — We’re good without it.
🦫 NEVER BEEN — But now I need to know what the hype is about

As someone who lives, works, and sells real estate in Central Iowa, I LOVE seeing conversations about new businesses and growth happening in our communities.

Now Iowa… what do we think?! 👇👇👇
