After 3 days, 90 showings, and multiple offers WAY over asking price, we sold this McKinney home for an unheard of price in this neighborhood! Listed at $595K and sold for $742,500! The sellers put some money in before listing to update the home (using Lionheart Redesigns as their general contractor) and were thrilled with the outcome of the home's appearance, new appraisal value, and most importantly the final sales price! If you are looking to buy, sell, or build let me help you reach your real estate goals!

SO THANKFUL FOR FAMILY & FRIENDS!
Did you know that the top reason to sell a home this past year was to be closer to friends and family? Yep, according to the “Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers” by the National Association of Realtors, the most popular reason given for making a move was to be nearer to loved ones. Nothing can take the place of a strong support system, especially during these recent turbulent times. If you are considering moving to be closer to family or those you consider family, know that houses are still selling quickly for top dollar. The “normal” seasonal slowdown during winter isn’t an issue in our continued hot market. Let me know if I can help you get closer to those you love!

With this in mind, I want to share this gallery of centerpiece ideas for your Thanksgiving table. I hope you find something just right that gives your family and guests the sense of how special they are to you!

Happy belated National Dog Day! Yes, I know I am a couple weeks late on this, but I do LOVE my pups! Here are some of my favorite photos of our fuzzy kids.

Looking to down size? Now may be the perfect time to sell! Compared to a year ago median home prices are way up, days on the market are way down, and the available inventory is low. I'm here to help!
