Don’t believe me?

Then you’re going to want to come back to see what happens when I list a move-in ready property for $1 at the end of this month.

This week's Overlooked List in the Kansas City Metro!

Remember: Good houses don't stop being good just because they've been sitting.

This is a list of homes where a homeowner raised their hand and said I WANT TO SELL but it's been at least 30 days since they went on the market and they have yet to receive an offer they are willing to accept.

Data shows us the longer a house sits on the market, the fewer showings it gets. People like to see the new and shiny things, as it's where the emotion is captured.

Why does this matter to you?

As a buyer, this means the ball is in your court to put in an offer with the terms YOU want in order to make this purchase.

When you do this, the seller has 3 options:
- Accept
- Counter
- Decline

If you could see yourself living here, give it a shot.

You never know.

I always said I’d never let my kids have screens.

And then I had kids and, well, I changed my mind.

When that happened I said I’d never let them have their own screens.

And then I wanted to be able to control their time on it and limit their contacts and know what apps they were using, so I bought them.

When that happened I said I’d limit their time to one hour a day. Period. Hard stop.

And then I started helping people sell house and buy homes which can mean back-to-back showings.

So here we are… A/B testing the rules.

It's rare to see houses in this neighborhood publicly for sale - they are usually traded between neighbors, friends and family.

BUT you're in luck - not only are THREE for sale right now, but they are ALL publicly open TODAY, Saturday Nov 2 from 2-4pm!

Come see what life is like at this hidden lake community just 30 minutes from downtown KC. Just tell the gate guard you're here for the open houses and he'll point you in the right direction!

My kids have very strong opinions about houses, and, as they're kids, they don't hold those back.
.. at least when talking to me.

When I tell them I'm looking at houses they say, "but not for us, right? We never want to move!"

That changed last night when they were able to join me at a new listing.

The street was named after it's description - Lake Forest Drive. It is a drive between a lake and a forest. Literally. And this house (with a rare 2 car garage and driveway!) sits right off the water with a protected forest in the back.

"Mom, can we buy this house?" they both begged.

Unfortunately we can't - but maybe you can so we can come visit ;)

Hollering from the bathroom my youngest yelled, “Mom! I wish we didn’t have to wipe!”

It was at that moment he learned there is a toilet called a “bidet” that was created for that very reason.

… and it just so happens to exist in this remodeled primary en-suite bathroom that’s going to be for sale on Wednesday - if someone doesn’t buy it sight unseen first!

While a lot more common in Europe, I’ve seen a few of these fancy toilets in KC.

Have you ever had a bidet in your home?

“How soon can you get my house on the market?” a friend called me this morning and wanted to know.

“Technically today but…” I said.

“Ok, send me the paperwork!” he replied.

And here we are… 12 hours since the inquiring phone call and this 5 bedroom, 3 bath lake-front-wooded-back home in one of KC’s best kept secret neighborhoods is officially in pre-mls.

I cannot WAIT to share it!

What neighborhood do you think it is?

When a service provider comes to my house, they're often compelled to tell me their life story... unprompted.

I've heard incredibly personal stories including divorce, child custody fights, family members with mental health challenges, eating disorders, financial struggles, and child loss.

As a service call is usually not planned far in advance, it is often a disruption to my day but I patiently sit and listen.

Sometimes all we want to do is to feel heard.
.. And sometimes it's easier to talk to a stranger than it is someone close to you.

To me, this is worth making time for.

With that said, if you're feeling lots of feelings and you need someone to share it with, please send me a message. I'm not a therapist and my only advice (if you want it) is based on my own experience, but I have personally experienced everything I mentioned above and I can relate.

There were many times in my life I felt like I haven't been "heard" and I've been misunderstood, and I know I'm not alone in this.

So, seriously. You're not alone and if you feel like you are, I've got you.
