Episode 38 - There are many listings that advertise as-is. There is also credence given to leaving out inspections to make an offer look stronger. But inspections are a critical tool for new homeowners and can save you thousands down the road.

Some houses need a little love. This one needs a LOT—but thankfully, it found exactly the right buyer!

I first met this amazing buyer at my very first homebuyer seminar, and we’ve been working together for many months to find the right opportunity. Today, all that patience and persistence paid off!

I’m incredibly grateful that the seller trusted me to represent them as well and help bring both sides together. This house may be a major project, but it has so much potential—and I know that once it’s repaired, restored, and filled with new memories, it’s going to become a beautiful first home.

Congratulations to my buyer on taking such an exciting step, and thank you to everyone who trusted me throughout this journey. I can’t wait to see the transformation!

Episode 37 - There comes a point where a buyer may be able to scrape the money necessary for a down payment but finds him or herself short for closing costs. Does that mean the deal is over? Absolutely not!

Someone wants this! Let me show you!

🏡 NEW LISTING! 🏡

This one is officially LIVE and ready for its next owner!

166 Tanner Lane in Walker offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, approximately 1,488 sq ft, and just over 1 acre of space to enjoy.

It’s a classic brick ranch with an attached garage, a beautiful stone fireplace, a sunroom for that little bit of extra living space, and a big yard with plenty of room to spread out.

If you’ve been looking for a home outside of town where you can have some breathing room without giving up convenience, you’ll want to see this one.

More pictures and details coming soon, but you don’t have to wait to schedule a showing! 🔑

Last week I acted like an electrician (exaggerated greatly). Today I was a horticulturalist. Whatever it takes to get a deal to the closing table, I work for you! Let me prove it to you! Message me today!
