I'm bringing you more fun home design tips, trends, and myths. 👩🏼‍🎨 🛠️

I really enjoyed highlighting some of the interior design "myths" that homeowners often come across, so here is an exciting part two. Take a look at some interior design mistakes you might be making!

The truth is, it's your home and you can design however you please as long as your happy. But some of us love to read up on the rules every once in a while.

I'm curious on your thoughts! Any of these hit a nerve? 🤣

I always feel a bit of whimsy looking at the newest paint trends. There's something so aesthetically pleasing about them! Anyways... without further ado.

Sherwin-Williams just released their color trends for next year, called their "2025 Color Forecast: Capsules". These capsules showcase a collection of 12 colors each, so it's more about the color story than individual paint colors.

What do you think of these concepts. Think you'll try to incorporate them into your home?? Which one is speaking to you the most?

🏡✨ Hyde Park-Kenwood Real Estate Market Update - August Edition ✨🏡

The last 30 days have been a whirlwind in the Hyde Park and Kenwood neighborhoods of Chicago! 📈🏠

🔹 What I See: Inventory continues to lag behind the heightened interest in buying. When price and condition align, sellers quickly receive offers and go under contract. Buyers, even those financing their purchase, are more optimistic and less hesitant despite higher rates. Many expect rates to drop and plan to refinance later. As a result, more buyers are now considering properties that need some updating due to the limited number of homes available.

🔹 Rising Competition: Single-family homes and townhouses remain scarce, pushing buyers to act swiftly. It's crucial to work with an agent familiar with off-market opportunities and the specifics of co-op purchases.

🔹 Condo & Co-op Frenzy: Condos and co-ops are selling rapidly, especially when they’re in prime condition and priced right. Cash buyers still dominate, but those needing financing are encouraged to secure a pre-approval.

🔹 Academic Influence: With UChicago gearing up for the new academic year, parents are buying condos for their student children, adding a unique twist to the market. Be mindful that some co-ops have specific restrictions on this!

🔹 Modern Demands: Updated kitchens and bathrooms are high on buyers' wish lists. Many prefer move-in-ready homes, with renovations being less appealing due to time constraints. My Concierge program can assist with timely home updates. 🛁🍽️
