Does Staging your front porch help you sell your home faster? You bet! Remember… You only get one first impression with potential buyers.

A few ways to stage your front porch:

🔸 Make sure it’s clean of debris, bugs, etc.
🔸 A good scrub or power-wash goes a long way
🔸 Clean your front windows
🔸 Make sure they’re free of spider webs and handprints.
🔸 Add a new doormat and plants that welcome people into your home.
🔸 A fresh coat of paint on your front door adds a finishing touch to your entrance.

So…When preparing your home to list on the market, don’t overlook the impact curb appeal can add in drawing buyers’ interest.

Getting pre-approved for a mortgage is truly the first step that you should take if you’re serious about buying a home. 👌👌

First-time homebuyers, however, are often intimidated by the amount of work that it can take to get approved and end up shuffling this important step to the end of their to-do list.

Avoid making this mistake! Contact me today…I will help you get started.

The most common question I’ve heard recently? 🏡 “Who pays the Realtor?” 🤔

There’s good news for you as a home buyer

🔸 Both the agent representing the seller and the agent representing you, the buyer, will be paid out of the seller’s proceeds at closing. 💰💰

Although you pay the seller for the house, you don’t need to add anything in for the agents’ pay. That’s the seller’s job. 🙌

Answer: True!

If you have plans to sell your home this year, this is for you 👇

While any time is essentially a good time to sell if the market is in your favor, Spring time is statistically the best time of the year to sell your home.

Homes listed in the spring sell for the highest prices and go under contract faster than homes listed at other times of the year. This is because buyers tend to house-hunt in the spring more than any other season.

Statistics & data aside…. I always advise my clients that the best time of the year to sell your home is the time that makes the most sense for you and your family!

Some clients of mine have a list twice the size of the contract! 🤣 But, if you could have just 3 Must-Haves in your new home, what would they be?
Personally, I would choose ✔️an open floor plan, ✔️hugeee walk-in closet (the bigger, the better 😜), and ✔️a bedroom fireplace (for extra cozy nights in).

What’s on your list? Let me know in the comments below! 👇👇
