I’ve been working with the parks department and code enforcement on creating a system for supporting pollinator gardens and ensuring they can easily be differentiated from overgrowth that would be subject to code enforcement action.

Recently, a developer planted a phenomenal pollinator garden on one of the empty lots they aren’t planning to build for awhile. Their beautiful garden inspired a conversation about how to replicate this on vacant city land, in parks, along highways and support other property owners in elevating their empty lots in this way.

We’re currently determining some pilot sites on city property and working through what sustainable maintenance of these gardens looks like. Excited to see what’s possible and hopefully scale this effort across the city!

One of the biggest myths in real estate is, “Let’s price it high and see what happens.”

What usually happens is buyers move on.

Today’s buyers know the market. They’re comparing homes online, touring properties, and watching new listings hit the market every day. When a home is overpriced, many won’t even schedule a showing.

As the days on market add up, buyers start asking questions. Price reductions follow, and sellers often end up with less than they could have achieved by pricing correctly from the start.

Pricing isn’t about hope. It’s about strategy.

That’s why studying comparable sales matters. And it’s why walking through homes, not just scrolling through photos, provides valuable insight into what buyers are truly comparing.

The goal isn’t to get the highest asking price.

The goal is to get the highest sales price.

Those are not always the same thing.

If your plans include selling your home, and not just listing it, let’s talk. I can help.

The 2026 spring housing market is showing more momentum than any spring since 2022, with new listings up 1.1% year over year and contract signings up 2.9%, according to a new Realtor.com analysis.

Economists say realistic pricing from the start, rather than repeated price cuts, is emerging as a key driver of buyer activity in markets like Austin, Phoenix, and Jacksonville.

A string of cities across America’s Sunbelt are emerging as graduate-hiring hot spots in an otherwise challenging job market for young professionals, an exclusive analysis shows.

Birmingham, Ala., tops the list of the places where newly minted graduates are landing jobs with a college-level career track, followed by Tampa, Fla., according to the new study by payroll processor ADP. In fact, six of the list’s top 10—including Raleigh, N.C.; Tulsa, Okla.; Nashville, Tenn.; and Charlotte, N.C.—are in the South.

Other pockets of the country also punch above their weight as early-career launchpads for their mix of 20-something hiring, pay and affordability. Columbus, Ohio, and California’s San Jose area unexpectedly got top scores this year—evidence that even places with so-so earning potential or high costs of living can be prime locations for landing that first job postgraduation.

Altogether, the ADP analysis—which measured 53 of the country’s biggest metro areas—shows that what looks like a nascent recovery in graduate hiring is happening unevenly. Recent data shows companies are boosting entry-level hiring this spring after holding back for several seasons, but their appetite hinges a lot on the kind of role, sector and location.
