I spent a few days at Camp Baker with my big kids class for Coyote Outdoor School. I feel so lucky I got to go be a part of it. Summer camp was so special to me as a kid and being able to share that with every 5th grader in the state if Oregon feels like such a wonderful gift and the setting of camp Baker is so magical. I didn't take nearly enough pictures as per my usual. Did you go to outdoor school as a kid?

Thinking about selling your house soon? Don't skip staging.

With more houses on the market now, anything you can do to help yours stand out counts. And while staging costs vary, whatever you spend could pay you back big time.

For example, if you invest the typical $4k for mid-level staging on a $400k home, that can turn into roughly $18k in added value when you sell.

That gives you the potential to net about $14k more at closing – about a 350% return on your investment.

But staging doesn’t have to mean hiring a full crew. There’s an option for almost every budget, from professional staging to virtual staging to simple DIY updates.

DM me if you're getting ready to sell and let's talk about what level of staging makes sense for your house and your budget.

“What if I buy… and home prices go down?” It’s one of the biggest hold ups some buyers have right now.

And honestly, with everything in the news lately, it's easy to see where that's coming from.

No one wants to make a big financial decision at the wrong time.

But here’s the part buyers need to see.

When you look at home prices over the last several decades, data proves prices usually go up, not down.

Yes, there are a few dips in there. But they’re typically small and short-lived. So, while a few markets are seeing slight declines right now, the bigger trend is clear.

Over time, home prices almost always rise.

That’s why buying a home is generally considered a safe long-term investment (especially if you plan to live there for 5+ years).

So, try not to get too caught up in what might happen with home prices next month or next year. Focus on the bigger picture.

The Pricing Mistake That Could Cost You Your Sale

A lot of homeowners think they can list high now and negotiate later, but that’s a mistake that costs them. And it’s the reason only 4 out of every 10 sellers are getting their asking price or more.

If you want to be in that group, it starts with getting the price right from day one.

Let’s connect so we can make sure you are.

Most sellers come into the market with one number in mind. And it’s often the one that costs them the most.

Spring always gives sellers an edge.

But data shows there’s a short window when that advantage really peaks – and it’s usually the last two weeks of May.

While it can vary by market, that's when buyer demand is at its strongest and competition pushes prices higher.

In some cases, that timing alone can mean a seller makes tens of thousands of dollars more.

If you’re aiming to sell for top dollar, this is the moment to watch.

Should You Wait To Move? Here’s Your Answer.

“Should I just wait?” It’s the question it seems like everyone’s asking. And here’s your answer. Even with everything going on, people are still moving. More homes are going under contract.
