Congratulations to my buyers Jordan and Karissa on their home in Ephrata! They are getting married in just a month, and Jordan signed off on the home just a short day before his Bachelor Weekend! I'm super excited for them and the life changes they have happening right now. That's what I'm here for! Oh, and the case of Rockstar? Yep. That's my favorite gift to give my first time homebuyers. When I bought my first home there was several cans of Rockstar left in the fridge downstairs, and so to me, Rockstar tastes like home ownership. And I love giving my clients a taste of home ownership!

I am available for sponsorship for high adrenaline home sales!

I am extremely grateful for every client that trusts me with some of the biggest financial decisions they make in life. I met Scott & Jan early in my career. In fact, they were my very first listing appointment. They had a cottage in Manheim that was under construction, and it would be quite some time until it was ready for them. I was able to walk them through what they could expect for the price of the home and what the sale process would entail. They were very kind, as patient as I was a new realtor, stumbling my way through the market analysis to give clear detail of what their home was worth. After the meeting, I continued to stay in touch, checking in from time to time to see how they're doing and stay up to date on their timeline. They even had me come visit a time or two so I could see their progress and give recommendations on what to do next.

Fast forward to last month, Scott reached out to let me know their new home was ready, and they were ready to get their home listed on the market. I met with them again and saw the great progress they had made on getting their home ready. I gave them final pointers and we set a time for me to come back to get their home listed. When we met for the listing, I reviewed my findings on the market reflecting the recent comparable local sales, and together we were able to settle on a price that felt right to all of us.

We faced a few unexpected twists and turns in the sale process, and we landed with an incredible offer. Even though I've sold 10 homes since our first meeting, I still consider them to be my first clients, and I am extremely grateful they gave me the opportunity to help them sell their home. Congratulations, Scott & Jan on the sale of your home!

Pricing the home that my wife and I worked tirelessly to improve, and made it our home for 7 years, was incredibly difficult. The comps were everywhere, but I had to fight the internal bias of what I belived our home was worth. You can't just simply put a price on the memories this home gave us. This is where we established ourselves as a family. 2 of us moved in, 4 of us moved out. As heartfelt as I can be about this home, the harsh truth is, the market doesn't care. The market alone will dictate what a home is worth. I was able to look through the blur of emotions, and price it effectively, and I got the exact results I wanted. The home didn't linger on the market, and we ended up with a price we are very happy to move forward with. And this house will move on to be a home to someone who will fall in love with it just the same.

I'm thankful for this stark reminder that home sales aren't just transactions. There's a lot of emotions that go into a home sale. As an agent I will treat every home sale with the knowledge that there's so much more to it for my buyers and sellers. These are life changing events, surrounding a property that either has, or will provide memories for several years. I'm proud of the work I do, and as much as it hurts to let go, I'm glad I am putting myself into the shoes of my sellers so I can serve them better every step of the way.

This one hits close to home, because this is my home. Since we bought it, my wife and I have poured our heart and soul into this home to make it into the incredile, beautiful home that it is today. I'm looking forward to seeing this become a home to somebody new, who will enjoy it for years to come.
