Did you know?

Interest rates don’t just change your monthly payment… they directly impact how much home you can afford.

Even a small shift can make a bigger difference than most people expect.

If you’ve been waiting or watching the market, it’s worth understanding what that actually means for you.

🌱 Spring Garden Series — Complete 🌸

If you’ve been following along, you now have a full roadmap for planting in Iowa this spring—vegetables, herbs, and flowers that actually work in our climate.

From last frost timing to pollinator-friendly picks, this series was all about making it simple and doable (not overwhelming).

✨ Quick reminder as you head into May:
• Soil > everything (healthy soil = better results)
• Don’t rush planting before that last frost window
• Mix in flowers—you’ll thank yourself later when the bees show up

Whether you planted along the way or you’re just getting started, this is one to save and come back to 🌿

And honestly? A well-kept yard doesn’t just feel good—it can boost your home’s value and first impression more than most people realize.

If you ever want ideas specific to your yard (or what buyers notice most), I’m always happy to help.

Happy planting 🌼
