Rates dropped, but competition just rose 📉
When rates fall, more buyers re-enter the market. That means faster timelines, tighter inventory, and fewer second chances.
Before you jump in, double-check your pre-approval, get clear on your monthly comfort zone, and focus on areas with value stability.
A better rate is great – but make sure you're ready to act quickly and confidently when the right property shows up.

Still thinking about listing? Good news – summer buyers are out, and inventory remains tight.
☀️ Highlight your outdoor spaces: clean up the patio, refresh cushions, and trim any overgrowth.
🪴 Add greenery near entryways and windows for curb appeal.
🕯️ Swap in seasonal accents like citrus bowls, crisp linens, and soft lighting for evening showings.
These small updates can keep your listing competitive even as the season shifts.

Real estate headlines have been buzzing with news about the NAR lawsuit settlement, but what does it actually mean if you’re buying or selling in 2025?
In plain English: sellers may no longer be expected to cover the buyer’s agent commission.
Buyers will have more room to negotiate directly with their own agents.
It’s a huge shift that introduces more flexibility, but also added complexity.
The right agent can walk you through what’s changed, what hasn’t, and what you need to know before you sign.
📌 Message me if you want a breakdown based on your goals.

In today’s scroll-and-swipe world, photos are your home's first showing.
Here’s why strong visuals are a must:
📸 97% of buyers start their home search online
📸 Listings with high-quality photos get more clicks (and more showings)
📸 Homes with professional photography sell faster and often for more
Think of it this way: the photos don’t just show the space – they tell the story. And if that story doesn’t grab attention in the first few seconds, buyers may scroll right past.
It's truly that simple.
Getting ready to list? Let’s make your home impossible to ignore.
