Real Estate News and Views from Michael Tessaro

Is It Still a Seller's Market? Here's What the Data Says.

Right now, local markets are moving in very different directions. And your strategy as a buyer or seller should reflect your market.

Want to know which way our local market is leaning and what that means for your move? Let's connect.

Remember a few years back when sellers held all the power and buyers were stuck offering way over asking or waiving inspections just to get a chance at the house? In many markets, those days are behind us.

Client Testimonial

"Michael exceeded all expectations! I’ve known Michael personally for many years, but I’d never worked with him as my realtor. From the very beginning and all throughout the process, he was knowledgeable, courteous, thorough, responsive, and professional, among other things. We were in a situation where we needed to decide how much work to put into fixing the house before listing it, and Michael provided us with three options to think about. That was a real benefit and we ended up selecting, in my opinion, the option that provided both speed and an unbelievable return on value. We couldn’t have done any of it without Michael’s vast experience and his ability to work with other people. Thank you so much for all that you did Michael!"

Is Your Backyard Missing These Must-Have Outdoor Living Features?

The smart design tips that turn ordinary patios and backyards into year-round outdoor retreats.

🌿 6 Tips for Creating the Ultimate Outdoor Living Space

↳ Design Your Outdoor Space as an Extension of Your Home: Create a seamless transition by matching outdoor colors, materials, lighting, and furniture with your interior style. A cohesive design makes the outdoor area feel like a natural part of your home.
↳ Plan for Different Functions Within the Space: Treat your outdoor area like separate “rooms” designed for dining, entertaining, or relaxation. Defining zones makes the space more functional and enjoyable year-round.
↳ Incorporate Comfort-Driven Features: Add heating, cooling, or screened areas to make your outdoor space comfortable in different seasons. Comfort-focused upgrades help maximize how often and how long you use the space.
↳ Elevate the Space With Thoughtful Design Elements: Layer lighting, add focal points, and embrace a clear design style to create a more polished atmosphere. Small details can transform an ordinary backyard into a luxurious retreat.
↳ Use Landscaping for Atmosphere and Privacy: Plants, hedges, and greenery help create privacy while adding texture and personality to the space. Landscaping can also define zones and create a more relaxing environment.
↳ Choose Materials That Balance Beauty and Durability: Select weather-resistant and low-maintenance materials that hold up over time. Durable finishes reduce upkeep while keeping the outdoor space stylish and functional.
