🛑 I need to ask for your help! 🛑

I have 5 families who are looking in the Chippewa Valley area for a new home. Here’s what they’re looking for:

1. A family of four looking for a 3+ bedroom, 2+ bathroom, and 2+ car garage. Rooms need to be on the same level. Would love to have a big enough backyard so their babies have room to play. Budget up to $350k.

2. A couple is looking for a 2+ bedroom, 1+ bathroom, and 2+ car garage home. Willing to put in some work and would like to be in Eau Claire or Chippewa Falls. Budget up to $250k.

3. A Veteran is looking for a 2+ bedroom, 1+ bathroom home in or around Eau Claire. Home will have to be able to pass a VA inspection but buyer is willing to put in some work to make it happen. Budget up to $180k.

4. A young couple is looking for a 2+ bedroom, 1+ bathroom, 2+ car garage with either a barn or outbuilding around Bloomer. Need enough land for a couple cows and horses. Budget up to $460k.

5. A family of 3 is looking for a 3+ bedroom, 2+ bathroom, 2+ car garage home in Eau Claire. Ideally all bedrooms on the same floor. Willing to put in some sweat equity, but definitely not a full remodel! Budget up to $300k.

If you know anyone who is looking to sell a home like one of these, all of these families are pre-qualified and excited to find a new home in the Chippewa Valley area! Let me know if you know of any.

🎨 Sherwin-Williams’ 2027 Color of the Year is here… CELERY SW 6421! 🌿

I’m curious what everyone thinks because personally… I’m getting pea soup vibes. 😂 This one is definitely not making it onto my walls!

But paint colors can look completely different depending on the room, lighting, flooring, and finishes, so maybe someone can convince me otherwise.

🏡 What do YOU think?
👍 Love it
👎 Leave it
🤔 Maybe in the right room

And if you would use Celery in your home, what room are you painting? Kitchen? Bathroom? Bedroom? Mudroom?

Drop your vote in the comments! 👇 I want to hear what everyone thinks.

The market in the Chippewa Valley has shifted a little, and I think it’s important for sellers to understand what that means when it comes to pricing your home. 🏡 👇

Here are a few things I personally want sellers to know...

#1) I don't price your home based on what Zillow says. An online estimate doesn't walk through your home, understand its condition, know the current competition, or see what buyers are actually responding to.

#2) Your neighbor's sale doesn't automatically determine YOUR home's value. Comparable sales matter, 100%. But so do current condition, recent improvements, timing, and competition.

#3) If your home is overpriced, buyers may not even come through the door. I'm actively working with buyers as well as sellers. I see firsthand what buyers are willing to pay...and what they're passing on. And I use that knowledge to help guide my decisions to sell your home, too. That's one of the many benefits of working with an ACTIVE agent.

#4) Buyers are being more careful with their money. Let's be honest, the economy is tougher right now. Interest rates, monthly payments, taxes, insurance, and everyday expenses all matter.

And here’s the big one…

#5) Listen to your Realtor when it comes to pricing. When I recommend a price, I'm not trying to price your home low so I can make a quick commission. Think about it logically...the more your home sells for the larger the commission. We have the same goal: getting you the best price possible that the current market will support.

My job isn’t to tell you the number you want to hear. My job is to use my knowledge and expertise to tell you what I believe your home can realistically sell for.

And I take my job very seriously.

If you're thinking about selling in the Chippewa Valley, I'm happy to talk about what price will get buyers to see the value, walk through the door, and write an offer.

No questions asked and nothing needed in return. Let's chat. 😊
