I get it. I get it. It’s hard to pick just one. The truth is most everyone I know loves the looks of several styles (myself included). But for today, just this once, pick one. K? ⁣
⁣
Here goes: If you had to marry a design style “‘til death do you part” which ONE would it be? ⁣
⁣
• Contemporary: Clean lines, light-colored woods, smooth surfaces,⁣
• Mid-century modern: Retro, Danish-inspired, simple silhouettes, focus on function⁣
• Minimalist: Simplistic, refined, elegant, no-fuss⁣
• Modern farmhouse: Warm, rustic, combines industrial and country elements⁣
• Traditional: Orderly, predictable, symmetrical, classic, casual⁣
• Urban modern: City-inspired, combines contemporary, modern, and industrial elements⁣
⁣
So many beautiful styles, so little time! Vote for your fave in the comments.⁣

Spring is here! That means it’s time to stop hemmin' and hawin' and get after some home maintenance projects. A few ideas to get you started:⁣
⁣
Indoors: ⁣
⁣
• Get down and dirty by scrubbing those baseboards, trim, doors, walls, and handles.⁣
• Scared to look at those air filters after the long winter? Take a deep breath and swap them out with fresh new ones.⁣
• Clean the blinds slate-by-slate (yes, it’s a PAIN) and wash, or easier yet, dry-clean window treatments.⁣
• Get the grime and slime off kitchen cabinets with a top-to-bottom wipe down.⁣
• Flip mattresses and, while you’re at it, wash ALL your bed linens (mattress pads and pillow shams included).⁣
⁣
Outdoors:⁣
⁣
• Have a look at your gutters and downspouts for winter damage and debris. (You'll def want a buddy to hold the ladder.)⁣
• Inspect wooden decks, railings, windowsills, and steps for damage or rot.⁣
• Pressure wash patios, decks, driveway, and outdoor furniture. (Pressure washing is awesome. Seriously. You’ve gotta try it.)⁣
• Tune-up any lawn maintenance equipment (and send up a prayer that everything will crank)!⁣
• Clear the front entryway of bugs and cobwebs. Go on and throw up a colorful spring wreath and welcome mat, too!⁣
⁣
Whip your home into shape ASAP so you’ll be ready to kick up your feet when that to-die-for spring weather comes a' knockin'! Spring is here! That means it’s time to stop hemmin' and hawin' and get after some home maintenance projects. A few ideas to get you started:⁣

There’s an old adage in real estate that says you should wait until it’s time to plant spring flowers before listing a home on the market. This week’s Frequently Asked Friday is kicking⁣
that tired way of thinking straight to the curb.⁣
⁣
Q: Is “now” a good time to sell?⁣
A: YES! Here’s the deal. The best time to list your home was yesterday...the next best time? Today — or as soon as we can get the paperwork together! ⁣
⁣
Here’s why: ⁣
⁣
Inventory is limited⁣
Demand is strong⁣
Interest rates are at historic lows⁣
⁣
All of this means there’s no need to wait. If you’re thinking about selling your home, go ahead and list it! Want even more good news? In the current market, it’s reasonable to expect it to sell quickly and for asking price, possibly above. Plus, if you price it right, you’re likely to receive multiple offers!⁣
⁣
If you know someone who’s waiting until summer to list their home, tell them NOW is the time. And if they have questions or need help, I'd be thrilled if you send ‘em my way!⁣

A stranger (soon-to-be-friend) gives you $10,000 CASH. There’s just one catch: It has to be used for a home remodeling project. What project would you tackle? ⁣
⁣
You may know exactly what you'd do — but if not, here are seven projects you could easily complete for UNDER $10K (always smart to leave some wiggle room in the budget):⁣
⁣
1. Open up your living area by knocking down a wall.⁣
2. Purchase new AND matching kitchen appliances.⁣
3. Replace the carpet in your bedrooms.⁣
4. Update a bathroom with a new vanity, mirror, faucet, lighting, and flooring.⁣
5. Install custom shelving in your closets, office, pantry, or garage.⁣
6. Paint the main living area walls, trim, and doors.⁣
7. Replace kitchen countertops and add a tile backsplash.⁣
⁣
Small reno projects like these have a HUGE impact on how you feel in your home. Have you completed any projects in the past few years — did you find this to be true? Share your experience below. I’d love to hear!⁣

Top o' the mornin’, friends! Got your green on? Hope so!⁣
Cause it’s the greenest of days in the middle of March, and while I don’t much believe in pots of gold at the end of rainbows, I do believe in spreading goodwill and cheer whenever I can. ⁣
⁣
In that very spirit, here’s an Irish blessing from straight from me to you: "May your blessings outnumber the shamrocks that grow, and may trouble avoid you wherever you go." ⁣
⁣
More blessings and less trouble — sounds good to me!⁣
Happy St. Patrick’s Day — hope you have a great day no matter how you’re celebrating!⁣

Buying a home doesn’t have to be overwhelming — I hear from clients ALL THE TIME how much easier the process was than they initially thought it would be. I couldn't agree more! ⁣
⁣
Buying a home can be a (literal) walk in the park...IF you have the RIGHT agent to guide you along the way. As your agent I will: ⁣
⁣
• Listen to your wants, needs, and dreams⁣
• Take to heart your fears and hesitations⁣
• Ask questions to help you clarify what it is you’re REALLY looking for⁣
• Give you the time and info you need for every step in the homebuying process⁣
• Provide you all the home options I possibly can⁣
• Encourage and support your short- and long-term goals⁣
• Put you and your family's needs first above everything else⁣
• Celebrate as you start an exciting new chapter in life⁣
⁣
If you’ve thought about buying for a while now, but always talk yourself out of taking the next step, TODAY is the day — send me a message. That’s all you have to do to move towards your real estate dreams. I simply cannot wait to hear from YOU!⁣

Know the difference between an expired listing and a withdrawn listing? Nope? Well, now you do! ⁣
⁣
An EXPIRED LISTING is a listing that hasn’t sold by the end of the term stated in the listing contract (sad emoji face) — typically, six months. If this happens — and in our current seller's market it’s hardly happening AT ALL — sellers can re-up and list again or move on to a new agency. ⁣
⁣
A WITHDRAWN LISTING is a listing that’s still for sale but no longer active on the MLS. This usually happens when sellers decide they no longer want to sell their home. Keep in mind these homes may still show up on a search for several days after being withdrawn.⁣
⁣
The GOOD NEWS? You have options when selling your home. I tell all my sellers they’re in the driver’s seat 100%, and it’s my job simply to make the drive as laid-back and enjoyable as possible!⁣
