A ranch with a 3-car garage in Triad schools, under $500k.
This one's 4 years old with a finished lower level, so you're not walking into a project.

604 Briar Meadow Court
🏡Built in 2022, 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and everything you actually use on one level.
✨Vaulted ceilings, walk-in pantry, split floor plan so the primary suite gets its own side of the house.
❗️Downstairs adds a fourth bedroom, a full bath, and a rec room. Plenty of room to spread out, plus dedicated storage so the flexible space stays what you want it to be.
☀️Covered patio out back. Cul-de-sac street. No HOA dues.
📣The roof, HVAC, water heater, and appliances are all original to the 2022 build so the four biggest items on any inspection report are as new as the house.

$485,000 · Coming soon, showings start September 5.

📍Stonebriar Subdivision in Troy, IL

“What should we do this weekend?”

I made something for you! It’s a free fall guide to O’Fallon and the Metro East, where to eat, where to walk, the traditions locals plan around, kid-friendly weekends, and a few road trips worth the drive. Everything in it is local.

Grab it at the link in the comments!

August you gave me a lot to be grateful for. 👏

Full days, good meals, a few closings + clients under contract, and moments I keep replaying.

Swipe for a look back at August. Grateful I get to build a life and business here in O'Fallon.

If we haven’t met yet, I’m your Metro East real estate agent, and I’m so glad you’re here.

September, let’s see what you’ve got.

Private dock in St. Jacob at this price point? Sign. Me. Up. 👏

You get 4 bed, 3 bath + 2236 sqft in the Meadows, and a view that's just as good in January as it is in September.

Most homes at this price make you choose: either you get the space or you get the location. This one doesn't make you pick.

Comment 'STJACOB' and I'll send the full details and more photos.

Swipe to find which coffee shop in the Metro East is your perfect match 👉

Some places are made for slow mornings, some are better when you want a little energy, and some just become the spot you keep going back to without even realizing it.

Consider this your local personality test.

People think this job is about houses.
And it is, but it’s so much more.

At the closing table, my clients choose a nonprofit and a donation goes out in their name. Some pick a shelter. Some pick a local PTO. A lot of them pick something that got their family through a hard year nobody knew about.

That’s what these photos are. Not a marketing plan. Just what happens when you ask someone what matters to them.

I’m grateful for a job that lets me be part of this.
