Kelli Pardue, Real Estate Broker Buying or selling a home is both exciting and stressful. It’s more than just a transaction; it’s

01/03/2024

I wasn’t gonna share this today.

But then I spent about 10 minutes scrolling social media and I was bombarded with messages that I should be making more money, have a bigger house, host fancier parties, have healthier routines, and on and on.

A lot of these things can strike a nerve with me, but as a real estate agent, I get particularly fired up when I see videos that make us feel like we need “more,” “bigger,” “better,” and “Instagram-worthy” homes.

Hear me loud and clear: I love a big beautiful home as much as the next person, but we cannot buy the lie that homes are the square footage or finishes we choose.

Homes are so much more.

This is what home is to me. What would you add to the list?! Let’s embrace the little imperfections that make a house a home ❤️

Spooky season is REAL and these are proof (especially number 10!) At least for me anyway

If you can't already tell, I LOVE my job. I love talking about it with you right here on 'gram because I genuinely love it and I love making connections with people in my community!
I'm not going to be everybody's cup of tea, but I'd hate for you to forget that I was an agent and work with somebody you wouldn't have a BOO-tiful experience with!

Truth is, I believe everyone should LOVE who they hire to work for them, whether it's your OB, your dentist, your plumber, and yes, your agent, too!

That's why I keep showing up here...to remind you that I'm always here, ready to help you, whenever you're ready!

Now, let's talk about the important stuff...these SPOOKS!

Which one do you relate to the most!?

Can I be honest for a second?

There was a time when I thought my kids would get in the way of my career.

But the more I look back, the more I realize they've actually made me a better agent. Swipe to see what I mean!

Let me start by saying: I am not Chick-Fil-A, I can't make everyone happy (there are still people who don't like CFA)! My point being.. this post isn't to say that I'm the right fit for you (necessarily), I just want to point out a few things that you should look for!

1. You know that feeling when something just feels right? The shoe fits, the throw pillow matches the color scheme.. make sure the agent *feels* like the right fit. Trust your gut!

Do they make you feel pressured? Are they pulling out contracts to sign before they've even learned anything about you? Do they start the conversation with "I'm the best xyz"? You'll know if it feels like the right fit!

2. Look for someone with the heart of a teacher (Hi, 🙋🏻‍♀️ I was one!😉) - Now more than ever, it is so, so important to be educated about the market, the process and what to be prepared for before vou ever step foot into MLS.

Before you ever even schedule a zoom call with the agent, are they educating you on this platform? Are they explaining what they cover in that zoom call? What does working with them look like? How are they going to set you up for success?

3. Social Media Savvy: Let me preface this by saying by no means am I suggesting that you need a real estate agent who has gone viral on TikTok. Not at all! But I believe social media is a critical tool for agents to be using. Not only does it allow them to network with agents all over the country (including having exposure to the city your home is located in), it also means they are on top of marketing trends that can maximize your home's exposure!

4. Are they a local agent? Do they have knowledge of the area (& market) your home is located in? Understanding the market for strategic pricing as well as being aware of local hot spots, amenities and attractions is essential to your home sale success!

Tag (or send to) a friend who is thinking of buying or selling so they can save this list!
