Need a home sale contingency to buy? Or maybe some closing cost assistance? In competitive areas, here’s a strategy many buyers overlook → focus on homes that have been on the market for 30+ days.

Why? Sellers with longer days on market are often more motivated, which can mean price reductions, room to negotiate, or even credits toward closing costs and rate buydowns.

Want me to send you a list of homes in our area that have been on the market longer than 30 days? DM me and I’ll send them right over!

September is the sweet spot for that dreaded home to-do list... warm enough to get things done, cool enough to actually enjoy doing them (ok fine, maybe not enjoy, but at least tolerate).

Use the mild days ahead to knock out a few important tasks like cleaning out the gutters, sealing up any drafts, and power washing to keep your home looking its best all winter long.

🌱 PRO TIP: September is one of the best times to aerate and seed your lawn so it comes back lush and green in the spring!
