Congratulations to Brenda, Keith and Joey on closing on your new home in Sunset Bluffs in Fuquay-Varina! 🏡❤️

I am so excited and happy for you to start this new chapter — and of course, for Sky to finally have her own backyard to run and play! 🐾

You were ready for more space, and we found it. Even better, we were able to negotiate a great deal, which means you’re walking into your new home with equity already on your side!

And this one took a little extra hustle. I was leaving for Palm Springs, but we were able to squeeze in a tour the night before I left, and I negotiated the offer for them over the weekend. Because when the right home comes along, there is always a way to make things happen. 💪🏼

So incredibly happy for this family and their new chapter in Fuquay-Varina! If you’re thinking about buying a home in Fuquay-Varina, Sunset Bluffs, Holly Springs or anywhere in the Triangle, I’d love to help you make it happen, too. 🏡

Everybody talks about Wrightsville & Carolina Beach…
but let’s talk about Surf City on Topsail Island.

Here’s why 👇

✔️ A pier that’s been standing since 1948
✔️ No chaos. No overbuilding. Just beach the way it used to be
✔️ Tacos from Shaka Taco after a beach day (non-negotiable)
✔️ That small-town, slow-down energy buyers keep asking for

And here’s the truth most people miss:
Every beach town gets “discovered.”

Surf City?
Still feels like what buyers wish they had found 10 years ago.

💡 If you’re searching:

“quiet beaches in North Carolina”
“best places to buy a beach house near Wilmington”
“Surf City NC real estate investment”
You’re already looking in the right place.

✨ If you want to see it before everyone else does…
you know where to find me.

🏆 HOLLY SPRINGS, THE STANLEY CUP IS COMING TO TOWN! 🏒❤️🖤

How cool is this?! The Carolina Hurricanes are bringing the Stanley Cup to Holly Springs, and you’ll have a chance to see it (and grab a photo!) right here in our community.

📍 North Main Athletic Complex
101 Sportsmanship Way, Holly Springs
📅 Monday, September 28
⏰ 11:30 AM–1:00 PM
☀️ Rain or shine!

Bring your phone or camera and have it ready to hand off to staff so they can keep the line moving and give as many Canes fans as possible a chance to get their photo with the Cup.

This is definitely one of those “only in Holly Springs” kind of days. ❤️🏆

Who’s going?! 🙋‍♀️

October in the Triangle is officially booked. 🎃🍂

Pumpkin patches, corn mazes, haunted trails, fall festivals, trick-or-treating… and yes, I found a few things for those of you who actually ENJOY being scared. 👻😂

I rounded up some of the best October events around Holly Springs, Fuquay-Varina, Cary, Raleigh and the Triangle — from family-friendly pumpkin picking to the Haunted Farm at Phillips Farms of Cary. (Phillips Farms⁠)

Basically, consider this your Triangle NC fall bucket list.

Swipe through, pick your favorites, and SAVE this because October is going to go by way too fast. 🍁

Are you team pumpkin patch 🎃 or haunted house 👻?

🐛 Let me make one thing VERY clear…

I will NOT be eating any bugs this weekend. 😂

But if you’re braver than I am, apparently you can at one of Raleigh’s biggest FREE family events!

BugFest is celebrating its 30th anniversary this Saturday at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences, with more than 100 exhibits, games, crafts and hands-on activities taking over the museum and surrounding Downtown Raleigh streets.

📅 Saturday, September 19
⏰ 10 AM–7 PM
📍 NC Museum of Natural Sciences | Downtown Raleigh
🎟️ FREE

This year’s theme is “Hoppers,” so expect plenty of treehoppers, planthoppers, leafhoppers and all kinds of fascinating creepy-crawly creatures. 🦗

You can meet real scientists and entomologists, explore hands-on exhibits, play games, make crafts and learn a little something along the way.

And then there’s Café Insecta, where the REALLY adventurous can actually sample dishes made with insects. 😳 Again…I’ll be respectfully sitting that one out. 😂

If you’re looking for something unique and family-friendly to do in Raleigh this weekend, BugFest is definitely one to add to the calendar!

Now I need to know: would YOU eat a bug? 👇

✨ My Positive Pick of the Night ✨

This one goes to & ! 💗🪩

I loved watching Maura take on something she’s never done before and completely lean into it. Because how many times do we talk ourselves out of trying something just because we’ve never done it?

You don’t have to know exactly what you’re doing to start. Sometimes you just have to say YES, figure it out as you go, and surprise yourself with what you’re capable of.

And I LOVE that. 💗

Vacation Brain: “Ocean view… I’m buying it.”
Investor Brain: “What’s the insurance?”

This is exactly what happens when people fall in love with beach homes in coastal North Carolina.

And honestly? You need both.

Because buying at the beach isn’t just about the view… it’s about:
✔️ Flood zones & storm coverage
✔️ Rental restrictions & income potential
✔️ Maintenance, parking & guest expectations
✔️ What actually cash flows vs. what just looks good online

If you’re considering buying, selling, or investing in Topsail Island, Surf City, Wilmington, Wrightsville Beach, or Carolina Beach, I’ll help you balance both sides so you don’t overpay—or underperform.

Save this before your next showing. You’ll thank yourself later.

This is exactly why I love . 💗💃

Watching Paralympian Ezra Frech step onto the dance floor with the Ferrari Daniella Karagach Pashkova was such a good reminder that we’re capable of so much more than we sometimes give ourselves credit for.

Believe in yourself. Take the chance. Do the hard thing. ✨

My positivity pick from Dancing With The Stars this week. 💕
