To close out 2025, I had TWO CLOSINGS last week - My clients closed on the SALE of their duplex and PURCHASED a larger townhome that perfectly suited their family's needs!

These clients reached out to me in the fall to discuss selling their current home and purchasing their next. I viewed their home and provided a plan for them to follow to prepare their house to sell. At the same time, I showed them several new homes and we found one that had a perfectly unique layout for their family. When they decided to offer on it, I created an offer package that highlighted my marketing plan for the home they were going to sell as well as market statistics. My client's offer was accepted on the new house, and we listed their home later that week. My client's followed EVERY STEP of the PLAN I PROVIDED to prepare their home to sell and the results speak for themselves - MULTIPLE OFFERS within 5 DAYS on the market and CLOSED AT $12,500 OVER LIST PRICE!

So here is the trick..... Did everything go perfectly to plan?
OF COURSE NOT!

Did my clients have a back up plan and options in place?
OF COURSE!

Because the reality is, I can not control everything. I do not feed my clients a fantasy. I offer my professional advice and provide them a step-by-step plan. We discuss options and what-if scenarios. I tell them the truth - things can go sideways. So have a backup plan.

Because hiring a good Realtor is not just about buying and selling. Its about having a professional that will find solutions when you hit hurdles, because chances are there will be some. Its about having a professional with the knowledge and the know how to get things done. And its about a professional who will listen to your worries and concerns, and then talk you back into the calm. Creating a plan is just the start. Getting you to the results you want is the real finish line.

If you have been thinking of BUYING or SELLING IN 2026, give me a CALL and lets start that conversation NOW!

NEW BUILD HOME FOR MY BUYER - CLOSED ON THE DAY BEFORE THANKSGIVING!

I had been working with these buyers for a few months, we had looked at every home in their price range in Yorkville and every home seemed to need so much work as they wanted an open concept kitchen and updated bathrooms. Finally, I came across a listing on a new build home in an established neighborhood that the builder was offering some AMAZING financing because they wanted to get it sold. It was a higher price point then my clients were originally looking at, but with the special financing it actually came in at a lower monthly payment, so it was a real option for them. I took my buyer to go see a model, we discussed all the fixtures, features and financials of the home with the sales rep, and my buyer signed a contract that day!

Being a good Realtor means helping your client find a home. BEING A GREAT REALTOR MEANS FINDING YOUR CLIENTS OPTIONS THAT THEY NEVER EVEN THOUGHT OF!!!

If you are thinking of buying, selling or investing in real estate in 2026, give me a call!

CONGRATULATIONS to my BUYERS on the purchase of this HISTORIC HOME in BATAVIA!!!

Not only are my clients the perfect fit for this 100+ year old home as I know they will honor the homes history, but they are also repeat clients! I truly think it says something about your integrity and professionalism when the same clients return to you again and again and again to help them with the biggest financial decisions of their lifetime. It is an honor to help people, but it is a HUGE compliment when they decide to work with me repeatedly!

Thank you Tim and Jean, and congratulations on this new home. I wish you may happy memories!!!

CLOSING DAY FOR MY BUYER!

This last week has been a real testament to what I do as a buyer’s representative. This contract had been moving along smoothly for three weeks. My client had done everything right. I had done everything right. But the lender dropped the ball 10 days before closing. We had to shift gears and I spent the next week answering dozens and dozens of emails on a daily basis to keep this buyer on track to close on her original closing date. Then this morning what should have been a 40 minute closing turned into over three hours, multiple phone calls and emails as well as a trip to pickup a document the lender suddenly now required. But we got it done and my client is SO HAPPY! She even gifted me this tote with the perfect message and some fun things inside too! 🍹

The lesson: when the 💩 hits the fan, you need someone who will fight for you 🥊 and your best interests! If you want an agent like that, call me!

October is off to a great start as I was able to negotiate and get my buyers under contract on a lovely historic home. She still has most of the original trim, k***s, hinges and pocket doors but has two decently updated bathrooms and a modern kitchen. And walking distance to one of the best riverfront downtowns in the Fox River Valley! Next week will be inspections and hopefully she isn’t hiding anything too scary 🫣

If you have been thinking of buying or selling this year or next, give me a call and let’s talk about how to get you on the right path.

It has been a busy week! When my time is better spent with my clients, the social media posts come few and far between!

My sellers at 208 Cooper St, Plano have accepted a contract, but they are still open to showings and looking for a backup offer.

My listing in Sheridan sold last week and now my clients can move on to their next chapter.

And I was able to negotiate and get my buyer under contract to purchase his next home!

If you have questions about the housing market, the process of buying a home or an opinion on what needs to be done to your house to make it the most marketable to today's buyers, give me a call! I'll find what moves you!
