🚨 HELP WANTED: HOME SELLERS. 🏠
(My kids play lots of sports. 😂)

And apparently, I’ve chosen to financially support this lifestyle.
So… let me list your house. 🏡😅

You get a Realtor who will work her butt off to market your home, negotiate for you, and get you to the closing table.
I get to keep funding my children’s athletic careers.
It’s a win-win. 🤝😂

Thinking about selling? Let’s chat!

Putting the heart back in homes… and apparently putting new cleats on feet.

Inflation has a way of making EVERYTHING feel more expensive… so it’s completely understandable if buying a home right now feels a little intimidating. 🏡

But waiting for the “perfect” market can come with a cost of its own.

Here are 3 reasons inflation doesn’t necessarily mean you should put your homeownership plans on hold:

🏡 1. A home is a long-term asset.
While everyday expenses can rise with inflation, owning real estate gives you an asset that has historically had the potential to appreciate over time. Instead of only paying higher prices, you’re putting money toward something you own.

💰 2. Renting isn’t protected from inflation either.
Rent can increase year after year. With a fixed-rate mortgage, your principal and interest payment stays predictable, even while other costs around you change.

📈 3. You can change your mortgage later. You can’t go back and buy yesterday’s house.
If interest rates improve in the future, refinancing may be an option. But if home prices rise while you wait, that lower purchase price is gone.

The bigger question isn’t “Is this the perfect market?”

It’s “Does buying make sense for MY finances, goals, and timeline?”

That’s the conversation I’d much rather have with you. No pressure. No “BUY NOW!!!” nonsense. Just real numbers and an honest look at whether homeownership makes sense for you.

🏡 Home shopping is supposed to be exciting… but nobody talks enough about how overwhelming it can get.

You start scrolling listings and suddenly you’ve got 37 homes saved, you’re emotionally attached to a kitchen you haven’t seen in person, and apparently now you have VERY strong opinions about whether you need a walk-in pantry. 😂

The biggest thing I tell buyers? Preparation makes the fun part actually fun.

Know your budget. Know your priorities. Ask ALL the questions. And don’t feel like you’re supposed to understand every part of the process before you begin. That’s literally part of my job. ❤️

And when we find the one? We’ll make sure you’re prepared to move when it matters.

Let’s make this interactive: If you were house hunting today, what are your 3 absolute NON-NEGOTIABLES?

Mine would be large walk-in closet in primary, open layout kitchen and large lot for my dogs and kids to run and play.

What are yours!?!👇

📌 SAVE this post if buying a home is somewhere in your future, even if you’re not ready quite yet.

House hunting and dating have WAY more in common than they should. 😂🏡❤️

The pictures looked amazing.
The description said all the right things.
You were already imagining a future together…

Then you met in person. 🚩😂

Finding the right home can take a few first dates, a couple heartbreaks, and occasionally an absolutely not the second you walk through the door.

But when we find the one? You’ll know. ❤️

And unlike dating, you actually get to bring a professional along to help spot the red flags. 😉

Thinking about buying or selling in Topeka or the surrounding area? Text or call me at 785-383-1643 and let’s talk about what your next move could look like.

A few interesting take-homes:

1. Many homes connected to a sewer line are eligible for a sewer “rider” on their insurance policy! Average cost can be less than $100/year for coverage!

2. Your sewer line does not have to back up to be able to file a claim for repairs.

3. When purchasing a home should be concerned about your insurance coverage on a roof of over 10 years.

4. Your deductible will change with the age of your home.

5. An impact-resistant shingle does not save you as much as you might think it does.

5. It is wise to shop for insurance within the first week of placing a home “under contract”.

6. After closing on a property, your insurance company has the right to make changes or cancel your policy.
