If this were a Hallmark movie, this is the part where you leave the hustle and bustle behind and find yourself at home in a charming little town at the base of the mountains.

YOU are the main character, and you’d swoon over the details of this home: over half an acre, RV parking, no HOA, mountain views, new laminate flooring, an updated kitchen, and even a neighborhood family of deer that stops by a couple times a week.

The wood-accented ceilings and wood-burning stove add that Hallmark-holiday-movie character, while central heating and air keep things comfortable year-round.

Outside, there’s room to garden, entertain and play, plus a storage shed for all your holiday decor and a dog run... because no great movie is complete without a furry friend, right?

In the next scene, you’ll *just so happen* to bump into a real estate agent (probably wearing plaid and drinking a pumpkin coffee) who’ll help you write an offer on this adorable country home.

Annnnd... the end. Roll credits on your new small-town life.

Sounds dreamy, right? Comment LANGLEY and I’ll send you all the details!

If you’ve been wanting to do the Polar Express with your kids, THIS is your sign to book it. 🚂🎄✨

Tickets went on sale TODAY and they sell out fast!

We’ve done this a few times and the kids love it. Is it a holiday splurge? Yes. 😅 But I also think it’s one of those things that’s worth doing at least once while the kids are still little and the Christmas magic feels real!

Our favorite way to do it is to book the Private Table Car Lounge with a group. It seats 15 and you have to reserve the entire car, so the total price looks a little 😳 at first… but split between 15 people, it’s actually only a little more per person than the standard coach seats. And everyone gets to sit together with a lot more room!

The ride itself is about an hour and takes you from Carson City to the “North Pole” and back. Along the way, there’s basically nonstop Christmas entertainment... singing, dancing, a reading of The Polar Express, hot chocolate and cookies, and the kids get to look out the windows at Santa’s helpers when you arrive at the North Pole. 🎅🏼

Then Santa boards the train! They give you plenty of time for photos with him, and there’s also a separate Santa photo setup you can use before or after your ride.

Everyone gets a keepsake silver bell, and in the Private Table Car Lounge everyone also gets a special collector’s coffee mug.

And obviously… pajamas are required in our family. 😂 We wear them on the train just like in the movie, which makes the whole thing extra cozy and fun.

We’ve done the other Christmas train in the area too, and this is the one our family prefers.

🎟️ Comment TRAIN and I’ll send you the link so you don’t have to go hunting for it. And no, I don’t make any money if you book. 😂 Just trying to make it easy for anyone who wants to go!

Comment GARDEN and I’ll send you all the details for this Hidden Valley home!

If you’ve been dreaming about a little more space, a little more quiet and a little more country… but you don’t want to leave town, this one might be exactly what you’re looking for.

Sitting on nearly half an acre in Hidden Valley, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath home has that cozy, cabin-like feel with plenty of space, city views and one of my favorite features - a thriving medicinal herb and vegetable garden. 🌱

There’s room to garden, room to play, room for the RV and room to breathe. And you get all of that while still being just minutes from shopping, restaurants, schools, the airport and pretty much every convenience Reno has to offer.

It’s a little slice of country living right in the middle of town. 🤎

Want the price, photos and all of the property details? Comment GARDEN and I’ll send them your way!

If you call me before drop-off or after pick-up and I don’t answer… this may or may not be why. 🫠

P.S. Right after this they were belly laughing about something one of them said. The whiplash of toddlers, man. 😅

IYKYK 😅

Most buyers and sellers genuinely want to work together to get to the closing table.

But every now and then, one party - buyer or seller - takes an unreasonable position and, despite everyone’s best efforts, the whole deal falls apart.

My advice? Remember there’s a real person on the other side of your transaction. Try to put yourself in their shoes for a moment and see things from their perspective. That doesn’t mean you have to give up what’s important to you, but a little empathy and willingness to work together can save everyone time, money and a whole lot of heartache.

So... can we talk about credit scores for a second?

As a Realtor, I often have conversations with buyers about how important their credit score is. Whether we like it or not, it plays a huge role in qualifying for a mortgage and getting the best loan terms.

But as a regular person? The system feels a bit like a scam.

My husband and I just paid off our house and our credit scores dropped. And not by an insignificant amount either.

And this isn’t the first time we’ve experienced negative impacts from good financial decisions.

When we bought this house 10 years ago, my husband didn’t have credit. He didn’t have bad credit, he just had no credit. He had been taught to save his money and pay cash for everything. So by the time we were ready to buy, he had close to $100,000 saved and no debt or credit history.

You’d think that would make buying a home easier.

Instead, we had to intentionally build his credit because having no debt and a large savings account wasn’t what they were looking for. 🥴

Now, fast forward 10 years, we make what most people would consider another financially responsible decision by paying off our mortgage... and our scores go down. What??

I understand why credit scores exist. Lenders need a way to measure risk and a credit score is one tool they use.

But I also think it’s fair to acknowledge how frustrating the system is. We have a decade-long history of on-time payments, have a healthy mix of credit, keep our utilization low, and literally just paid off one of the largest loans we’ll ever have and the system penalizes us for it? There’s got to be a better way, no?

Am I the only one who’s had a financially smart decision somehow hurt their credit score? I’d love to hear your experience. 👇

This silly little app and a creative marketing video just helped me turn a DM into an entire home sale. 🙌🏼

And if you think it was just a fluke... last week I also closed on a home with clients who found me through Instagram.

Real estate marketing is changing.

The buyers for your house may not be actively searching for homes yet... but I’d bet 8 out of 10 of them are scrolling.

The question is: when they do, will they find your home?
