🏡 **NEW PRICE | $284,900 IN LAFAYETTE**

Another **$5,000 price reduction** at 1048A Milo Circle!

Now let's talk about the elephant in the room…the **$550 HOA.**

It's easy to look at that number and think, *“That's too high.”*

But what if you looked at **what you're NOT paying separately?**

💧 Water, sewer & trash
🏠 Exterior & roof maintenance
🛡️ Master insurance on the structure
🌿 Landscaping & common areas
🏊 Community pool

I live in Lafayette, and my water, sewer and trash alone can run around **$150/month** — before summer watering.

And here's the bigger question:

**Where are you going to find a move-in-ready home in Lafayette for $284,900 without an HOA?**

You'd likely have to spend substantially more — or move considerably farther away.

So instead of asking, *“Is $550 a high HOA?”*

Ask:

**“What does that $550 replace — and what does it allow me to buy?”**

Watch the video and let's break down the numbers. 👇

📍 1048A Milo Circle, Lafayette
🛏️ 2 Bedrooms | 🛁 1 Bath
🌿 End Unit + Private Fenced Patio
🔥 Stone Fireplace
🏊 Community Pool
🔑 Lock-and-Leave Lifestyle

**NOW $284,900**

🏡 **WILL YOUR HOME PASS THE “SELL FOR TOP DOLLAR” TEST?**

Most homeowners love their home—and naturally, we tend to overlook the little things we live with every day.

Buyers don’t. 👀

They notice the tired carpet.
The scuffed trim.
The overgrown landscaping.
The dated finishes.
And yes…they notice how your home smells. 😬

In today’s market, simply putting a home up for sale isn’t the same as positioning it to sell for **top dollar**.

Before you list, your home needs to pass the test:

✔️ Curb Appeal
✔️ The 3 D’s: Declutter, Depersonalize & Deep Clean
✔️ Paint & Flooring
✔️ Updates & Condition
✔️ Staging
✔️ The Competition Test
✔️ And yes…the dreaded **Smell Test!** 🐶

Some homes need very little. Others may benefit from a few strategic changes before the first buyer ever walks through the door.

And here's the important part: **you don't necessarily need to spend a fortune.** You need to know which improvements buyers will actually value—and which ones aren't worth your money.

🎥 Watch the video and take my **“Sell for Top Dollar Test.”**

Then, if you're wondering how YOUR home would score, **Call ME.**

I’ll walk through your home with you, look at it through a buyer’s eyes, and help you decide what’s worth doing, what’s not, and how to position your home to get the best possible price.

Lafayette’s water system experiences its own “rush hour” every Monday morning, when irrigation use spikes.

-These spikes put extra strain on our treatment facility.
-Shifting watering to alternative days helps relieve the rush.
-Your lawn can still get the recommended 2–3 watering days each week — just choosing different days reduces stress on the system for everyone.

Thanks for doing your part! Learn more about water efficiency at lafayetteco.gov/GetWithTheFlow.
