🏡 Congratulations to our wonderful buyer on closing on her very first home! 🎉

From the very beginning, she knew exactly what she wanted: a place to truly call her own. While many first-time buyers start with a condo, she was determined to find a single-family home, and she never lost sight of that goal.

When the right home came along, we found ourselves in a competitive multiple-offer situation. With careful preparation, a strong strategy, and great teamwork, her offer stood out and was accepted.

There is nothing quite like getting the keys to your first home, and Bev and I couldn't be happier for her. It was an honor to help guide her through the process and see her achieve this important milestone. Congratulations on your new home and the exciting chapter ahead! 🔑✨

🤝 Some events just fill your soul. 💛

Bev and I had the honor of attending the very first fundraiser luncheon for Neighborhood Hands — and what an incredible afternoon it was. Getting to spend time with founder Bill and witness the growth of this amazing organization firsthand was truly something special.

Neighborhood Hands creates opportunities for people experiencing homelessness or economic insecurity to connect with their community through meaningful, paid work... including cleaning up and beautifying our local parks. It's a brilliant model that provides real compensation, dignity, and community connection all at once, bringing housed and unhoused neighbors together to strengthen the neighborhoods we all share. 💚

We are so proud that Sereno was able to support Neighborhood Hands with a grant when they were just getting started, and even prouder to watch them flourish. If you are looking for a meaningful organization to support right here in our community, this is it. 🙏

Feel at home this summer with these easy tips!

• Update your curb appeal by adding some flowers and plants to your front yard or even a fresh coat of paint to the front door.
• Make sure your outdoor spaces standout by keeping them clean and free of clutter. Maybe even get new pillows for your patio furniture!
• Keep your home’s A/C at a cool temperature so potential buyers feel comfortable when viewing.
• Leave out bottles of water for potential buyers to enjoy!

A little goes a long way when you’re selling your home!
