CLOSING DAY x2! 🏡🏡

Congratulations to Fernando & Jairon’s sellers! Both of these homes weren’t on the market long because of their solid updates and strategic pricing and marketing! 📈

Jairon’s seller picked a perfect home to flip and with gorgeous updates, we recieved lots of showings and were able to find a buyer quickly. ✨

Fernando’s seller wanted to offload a rental property that he has owned for 20 years. With thoughtful updates and a great location where you can see the Capital Building from the back yard, it was quick finding someone that wanted to call it home! 🥳

Are you ready to make a move and want to come up with a plan? Give us a call! We would love to help! 📲

HAPPY CLOSING DAY! 🏆

A huge congratulations to Waleska on becoming a homeowner! 🎉

Waleska was referred to Fernando by one of his past clients, who also happens to be her best friend! When it came time to purchase her first home, she knew she wanted someone in her corner who would work hard for her every step of the way.

After touring a few homes that just weren’t the right fit, we started to get a clear picture of what she was looking for. Then we found the one, and we knew immediately it was the perfect match! 🏡✨

Waleska works incredibly hard and is so deserving of this accomplishment. We are truly grateful that we were able to be part of this exciting chapter and help guide her through the home buying process. We can’t wait to see all the memories she creates in her new home!

Thinking about making the jump into homeownership but not sure where to start? Let’s put together a plan that works for you and your goals. We’d love to help!

PHS CAREER FAIR 💙🏡

A huge thank you to Perry High School for inviting us to speak at their career fair! We loved connecting with students and sharing what the path to becoming a Realtor looks like, and how a career in real estate can truly change your life.

We had so many great conversations throughout the day, and Brooklin had the opportunity to speak to several classes, giving students a deeper look into what we do and what’s possible in this industry.

Thank you again, PHS! Same place, same time next year! 😉👏🏻

Huge congratulations to Fernando’s client on securing his first home! 🎉

With him being out of state serving in the military during the home search, this one was truly an adventure. Through FaceTime showings and touring homes with his trusted circle for extra input, we were able to find the perfect fit.

Inspection went great, and we can’t wait to hand over the keys! 🔑✨
