"I saved up my down payment so I'm ready to buy." ✋ Hold on.

There's a part most people forget, and it catches buyers off guard every single time.

It's called closing costs. And it's not a small number.

Here's what you're actually paying at the closing table:
→ Loan origination fees
→ Title insurance
→ Appraisal & inspection fees
→ Attorney fees
→ Prepaid taxes & homeowner's insurance

The total? Typically 2–5% of your loan amount. On a $350k home, that's up to $17,500 — in addition to your down payment.

Sellers: you're not off the hook either. Your closing costs come out of your proceeds.

🤖 AI photo? Guilty.
😱 Overly dramatic reaction? Maybe.
🧟 Zombie foreclosures in NH? Absolutely zero.

Most states? Haunted by abandoned homes stuck in foreclosure limbo. New Hampshire? Spotless. One of only 3 states in the country with none in Q1 2026.New Hampshire is one of only 3 states in the country with no zombie foreclosures in Q1 2026 — and we're only slightly less dramatic about it than she is.

Let's talk electrical panels. When showing properties, here's what we look for:

🔴 Overcrowded, disorganized wiring — creates dangerous heat buildup
🔴 Double-tapped breakers — two wires on one breaker is a fire hazard
🔴 Mismatched breakers — wrong brand = breaker may not trip when it should
🔴 No AFCI/GFCI protection — required in many areas of the home by code
🔴 Undersized panel — can't safely handle modern electrical demands

A healthy panel should have clean wiring, properly sized breakers, and a labeled directory.

Do you know what's inside your electrical panel? When's the last time someone looked at yours? 👇

SO PROUD of what our community accomplished today. 💙

A few of us Real Estate Agents from the office teamed up to host a community shredding event, and thanks to everyone who stopped by, we raised nearly $1,000 for Gateways Community Services — an organization doing incredible work supporting individuals and families impacted by autism.

HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who came out to safely shred documents, donate, and support a great cause. This is what community is all about. 🙌🚛🗂️

Did you know your property tax bill in NH has almost nothing to do with your home's value and everything to do with your zip code?

Empty rooms. Full heart. 🏠

This house wasn't just where they lived… it's where they grew, learned, struggled, and celebrated a life filled with memories that can never be packed away

Now it's someone else's turn to fill these walls. Congratulations to my client on this next chapter. 🔑

While out on a walk in the woods today, I noticed: Spring in New Hampshire is officially here. ☀️🌱

You know the season has shifted when:

🌸Buds are ready to burst and the birds are back at it.

🚗The potholes are blooming.

🍵The Dunks order officially switches to 'Iced.'

🧊Convertibles are out (even if it’s only 60 degrees).

🏡Everyone is suddenly an expert on curb appeal.

The Real Estate Reality: If you're planning to sell this June, your 'Spring Cleaning' needs to move outside. In this market, your front yard is your first showing. Don’t let a messy exterior stop a buyer before they even reach the door.
