Questions about the financial aspect of buying or selling your home? Keep reading...

Prior to becoming a real estate agent, I was a high school personal finance teacher for five years. Students now are lucky, the district I taught in made financial literacy a graduation requirement! This meant every student was taught about credit cards, loans, interest rates, down payments, budgeting, etc.

But when I was in high school, we weren’t quite as lucky. Personal finance wasn’t even a class, let alone a graduation requirement! Which meant millions of students, just like me, were graduating all across America with no formal training in the one thing that affects all. of. us. MONEY.

This is why I’m SO passionate about working with first time home buyers! I am prepared to answer all the questions, even the ones you might be embarrassed to ask. Don’t know how interest rates work? No problem, I’ve got you. Confused about the difference between a conventional and FHA loan? I’ve taught whole lectures on the subject. There are no dumb questions here.

What questions do you have about home buying or selling?? I’m finishing up a buyers guide today and would love to send it to you if you are a first time home buyer. DM me with your email address and I will send it your way!

✨ BEST NEUTRAL PAINT COLORS ✨

Neutral colors help buyers to see your home as a blank slate that they can make their own, but many homeowners don’t like the idea of painting their whole home white. Fortunately, “neutral” does NOT have to mean white! I love to use colors that have earthy tones to make your home feel extra warm and cozy. I have a round up below of some of my favorite neutral paint colors.

Calm- Benjamin Moore
Accessible Beige - Sherwin Williams
Repose Gray- Sherwin Williams
Shiplap - Magnolia
Moth Grey- Behr
Sunday Stroll- Magnolia
Flower Jar (as seen on the fireplace in the photo above by ) - Magnolia

Looks like today might be our last day for nice weather before we take a turn for the worst. 🥶 Is your home winterized and ready for a hard freeze? Here are some tips:

➡️Bring hoses into the garage
➡️Clean out your gutters
➡️Service your HVAC system
➡️Seal any cracks around doors and windows
➡️Reverse your ceiling fans

Get the hot cocoa ready! Or maybe the whiskey...sounds like it could be a long winter!🥃

Drinking my coffee this morning and reflecting on our journey with purchasing our first home. We had been browsing the market for a few months but then I switched jobs and our current apartment downtown was just too far to commute every morning. Therefore we became every seller’s dream - panic buyers!

This push to move quickly is common for many home buyers, and can lead to some mistakes in the process. First, we were making emotional decisions. We knew the market was competitive so we would have to make quick decisions. This led us to making high offers on homes that needed a ton of work - some that we didn’t even really love. Secondly, we let the competition get to us. My husband and I are both highly competitive people and we would want to “win” the minute we heard that the home we were looking at had multiple bids. Not exactly the best way to make a large purchase!

We didn’t get any of the first three homes we bid aggressively on. We were feeling really down on our luck, then our home came along! It wasn’t “perfect” and it definitely needed some updates, but it was the first home we looked at that we felt we could get at a price that made sense. We wrote a letter to the owner, we made a fair offer, and we were okay with letting it go if it didn’t work out. And then to our surprise, we got it!

I say all of this to give all you frustrated home buyers out there some hope. I have been in your shoes! Yes, inventory is low. Yes, it is very competitive. But (if you can) be patient, be willing to lose occasionally, and be level headed - the right one at the right price will come along for you too! Plus, find an agent who has the time to let you work through this process and doesn’t push to make rash decisions. Buying a home is a big choice and you want to make a good one!

I’ll save my post on all the work we’ve done to build equity in our home (like this tiny kitchen reno) for another day! 😊 Reach out if you’re in the market to buy and frustrated- let’s talk through it together!
