🍂 FALL IS OFFICIALLY HERE! 🍂

Which means it’s time for cozy sweaters, crisp mornings, changing leaves… and the most important debate of the season. 😂🥧

🥧 THIS OR THAT:

🎃 Pumpkin Pie
OR
🍎 Apple Pie

No sitting on the fence! 👀
You have to pick ONE.

Are you Team Pumpkin 🎃 or Team Apple 🍎?

Drop your answer in the comments! 👇

And bonus points if you’re adding whipped cream, ice cream, or both. 😋

I think sometimes we put SO much pressure on buying our first home that we start believing it has to check every single box.

The perfect neighborhood.
The perfect kitchen.
The perfect yard.
Enough bedrooms for a future you haven’t even met yet.
And, of course, it needs to be the home you’ll love for the next 20 years. 😅

But what if your first home is simply… your first step?
Your first purchase can be a place that fits your life right now while helping you build equity, gain homeownership experience, and get closer to the home you eventually want.

Maybe your first home is a condo.
Maybe it needs a little updating.
Maybe it’s smaller than your dream home.
Maybe you stay for 3 years instead of 15.

That doesn’t mean you made the wrong choice.

💡 The goal isn’t always to find “the one.” Sometimes the goal is to make a smart move that puts you in a better position for your next one.

So if you’re house hunting and thinking, “Nothing feels perfect…” — take a little pressure off yourself.

You don’t need a forever home.

You need a home that makes sense for your life and your finances today. ❤️

And who knows? The home you buy first might be the stepping stone that eventually gets you to the home you’ve always dreamed about. 🏡✨

Don’t let the pressure to find “the one” keep you from making a smart first move.

If you’re starting to feel like, “Maybe I should just take a break from house hunting…” — I get it. 🏡

Searching for the right home can be exhausting. You see houses that aren’t quite right, homes that go under contract before you can blink, and sometimes you start wondering if your house is even out there.

But don’t let the frustration convince you that you’re not getting closer.

According to NAR, the typical buyer searches for about 10 weeks before finding their home. That means the house you’ve been waiting for could be closer than you think.

And you don’t have to navigate the search alone.

Sometimes you don’t need to search harder — you need someone who knows the market, understands what you’re looking for, and can help you recognize the right opportunity when it comes along.

That’s where I come in. ❤️

If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or tempted to hit pause, send me a DM. Let’s talk about what you’re looking for and see if we can get you closer to the right home. 🔑

🏡 MADISON HOME SEARCH PSA

If you’ve looked at the same listing 17 times…

Saved it.
Shared it.
Checked the photos again.
Zoomed in on the kitchen.
Studied the floor plan.
Imagined where your couch would go…

You should probably just go see the house. 😂

Sometimes you can learn everything possible from the listing photos—but you won’t know how the home truly feels until you walk through the front door.

You might discover:

✨ The layout is even better in person
✨ The backyard is perfect
✨ The neighborhood feels like home
✨ The “small” room is actually the perfect office
✨ Or… the house looks much better online (it happens!)

Either way, seeing it in person can help you move forward instead of wondering, “What if?”

So if you’ve been stalking the same Madison listing for the 17th time, consider this your sign:

📲 Let’s go see it.

No pressure. No commitment. Just a chance to find out if it’s the one—or cross it off your list and keep looking.

🏡 WEDNESDAY WISDOM: Your pre-approval isn’t your budget.

Getting pre-approved for $500K is exciting… but here’s something I want every buyer to remember:

Just because a lender says you can spend $500K doesn’t mean you’ll be comfortable living with a $500K payment.

Your pre-approval is based on things like your income, debts, credit, and the lender’s guidelines. But your budget is personal.

Maybe you want to:
✨ Travel a few times a year
✨ Keep money going into savings
✨ Have room for unexpected home repairs
✨ Enjoy dinners out and weekends with friends
✨ Pay down debt faster
✨ Simply have a little breathing room each month

And don’t forget—the mortgage payment isn’t the only cost of owning a home. Depending on the property, you may also have property taxes, homeowners insurance, HOA fees, utilities, maintenance, and repairs to consider.

💡 My advice?

Before you start shopping, figure out the monthly payment you feel comfortable with, then work backward from there.

Your lender can tell you what you’re approved for.

You get to decide what you’re comfortable paying. ❤️

And as your REALTOR friend, I’d much rather help you find a home that fits comfortably into your life than have you fall in love with a house that stretches your budget too far.

Save this for your next home search! 🏡

I still tell every buyer to get pre‑approved before they start touring, even though it scares off a lot of interest. It’s the one piece of advice that’s cost me deals, but it’s the only way to avoid a busted offer later.
