I love helping my clients find their dream homes, but let’s be real, sometimes that means navigating the finer points of HOA rules and regulations. 🥴

Like, who knew someone would have an opinion about the smallest details?

As an agent, it’s my job to stay on top of these things, but I have to wonder: what’s the strangest HOA rule you’ve ever encountered? 🧐

🚨 Des Moines homeowners, we need to talk. 🚨

You renovated with love… but your buyer just walked out the door. Here are 5 “upgrades” that are actually costing you at closing:

🚗➡️🛋️ Converting your garage into living space — Buyers want that garage. Storage, cars, Iowa winters — they need it. You just lost them.

🛁❌ Removing the only bathtub — Young families and resale stats agree: no tub = no deal for a huge portion of buyers.

👨‍🍳 Over-improving the kitchen — A $60K kitchen in a $280K neighborhood doesn’t come back to you. Ever.

🔨 Unpermitted DIY projects — This one doesn’t just hurt value — it can kill a deal entirely during inspection.

🪵➡️🧶 Carpet over hardwood — Iowa buyers are pulling that carpet up in their heads the second they walk in. They’re just not telling you.

Before you pick up a sledgehammer or call a contractor, call your realtor first. 📞

Selling in the Des Moines area? Let’s make sure your home is working for you — not against you.

👇 Drop your zip code or DM me — I’ll tell you exactly what buyers in YOUR neighborhood actually want to see.

POV: the only pot of gold I care about this month builds equity. 🌈

The real win is no luck — it is ownership over time.

Payments start turning into principal, value grows, and suddenly the place you live in is also working for you 🍀

Curious how that math could look in your situation?

Let’s run it.
