IKYK! Sometimes it just needs that little something extra! 😂 One thing I pride myself in is helping sellers NET top dollar in this market. 🏡 If you’re thinking of selling, the first thing you want to do is sit down with your Realtor (aka me!🙋🏻‍♀️) There may be things you think need to be done to your home that in fact won’t bring more money into your pocket! What I like to do is walk-through your home room by room and see it through the eyes of a buyer. Then we can discuss a plan of action to sell for top dollar with my comprehensive marketing strategy that starts before your home hits the market. I share with you the home selling process from A-to-Z, we talk about how everybody is compensated, the social media campaign I do for you, the marketing that we provide, the professional photography, videography, and getting to the closing table on your timeline. There’s never any pressure from me and I’m also happy to just let you know how much your home is worth in today’s market. Then, when you’re ready to take the next step, we can chat💕📲

Great investment

But the good news is, it’s not too late for you to own your own home! 🏡 Now, there’s no rent shaming here, because sometimes it’s the best thing for you to do for you and your family in the season that you are in. Heck, I rented a home after my divorce to get a feel for the city I wanted to live in before I bought another house! However, we can take the right steps together to dial in your credit, see how much you qualify for with a loan, and get you one step closer to purchasing your dream home! Let’s help you stop paying someone else’s mortgage so you can start paying for your own and earn that equity! No question is a silly one. Let’s chat📲

Let’s talk about that FIRST step! 🏡 Why is a pre-approval an important first step if you are looking to buy a home? Well…if you are anything like most people, you start dreaming on Zillow & looking at ALL the houses. Then you find yourself awake at 2 AM and can’t sleep & you land on the perfect home! You love the kitchen, the open layout …. you start to imagine your family living there. You can see your kids playing in the backyard! 🌳 So, now what? You call your Realtor to go see 👀 it! The issue? If you aren’t financially approved for the home, your Realtor won’t take you to see it. It would be wasting your time. You can’t write an offer without an approval letter from a qualified licensed lender. (Unless you are paying cash, of course!) So now you are rushing, stressing, doing ALL THE THINGS to get approved for a loan and hoping you don’t miss out on that house. Meanwhile, the other buyers who are looking at that house have already been approved and they have a much better chance of getting the home! So how do you get started? 1. Call your Realtor & say you are ready to start the home buying journey (that’s me!). 2. You will sit down for a buyer consultation to learn the A-Z of home buying. All the steps. Fees. Docs you need to sign to view homes. Learn how compensation is covered & more. 3. I’ll connect you with a local lender to start your approval process (& if you have a good lender in mind I’ll reach out to introduce myself). 4. Then we get to start the fun part…looking at houses til we find your dream home! Ok friends, you know where to find me. 😉 Let’s make 2025 YOUR year of homeownership! 🏡🏡🏡

This is how you get your home ready for its market debut✨🏡 Because you only have one chance to make a great first impression and these seller clients understood the assignment✅ The beautiful colonial was under contract quickly, allowing the sellers to move on to the next steps for the process without accommodating endless showings and low ball offers. We sold over list price and negotiated terms that best fit my clients timeline. If you want to get the most out of your home sale, this is how you do it. Curb appeal: Power wash siding, freshen up flowerbeds, paint shutters and maintain the yard Declutter and Depersonalize: Pack items you don’t use daily, including family photos Organize and Deep Clean: Everything should have a place.

Decluttering… 😩 Am I right?! Getting a home ready to go on the market can be such a BIG project. It can feel SO overwhelming. I wanted to share some simple tips that have helped my clients declutter. You are going to want to save this! 📌 Ok let’s break it down: 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐒𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐥: Begin with one room or area at a time. Tackling small spaces helps avoid overwhelm and lets you see progress quickly. 𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞 "𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩", "𝐝𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐞" & "𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐡" 𝐩𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐬: As you sort through items, categorize them. If you haven’t used it in a year, it’s time to let go! 𝐋𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐬: Buyers want to envision themselves in your home. Remove family photos and personal mementos to create a neutral canvas. 𝐑𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐚 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭: Consider renting a storage unit to limit the amount of things that are in your house because the closer you can look to a model home, the better! 𝐃𝐞𝐞p 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠: Once you’ve decluttered, give your home a thorough clean. A fresh, clean space feels inviting and ready for new owners. Ready to get started? Let’s make your home shine! ✨

Buyers: If you have been waiting for interest rates to drop until you bought a home, the time is NOW! Reach out to your professional Realtor (aka ME) to start the steps to get you qualified for a home loan with a local lender & then we talk about your dream home! Sellers: If you have been waiting for rates to drop to put your home on the market, your time is here! Lower rates means buyers who have been sitting on the sidelines are now ready to buy which could mean MORE money for your home! Ready to chat about making a move in 2024? You know where to find me! 📱

You are going to want to SAVE THIS! 📍 1. Marketing You don’t have the right marketing for the home. High end photography. Video. Lighting. Advertisements. Wording. Social media. It ALL matters. 2. Showing You can’t show the home easily. Tenants. Issues with availability. If a buyer wants to buy your home, they need to be able to see it! 3. Price Pricing a home is so important. If you price too high, you can limit the amount of people who could actually see your home because it’s outside their comfort zone so they will never see it in their search results. If your price is too low, people might think you’re desperate or something is wrong with the house. What you need to do is price competitively, so that you can get multiple eyes on your property. Then all you have to do is have them walk through your front door. They fall in love, they see the value, and are ready to make an offer! And my last tip? (& probably the most important) Hire the right REALTOR! Who you work with is everything! Hire someone who CARES, has a past history of sales & the integrity to get the job done right. If you are looking to buy or sell in Maryland, let’s chat! We have 4 homes in contract JUST THIS MONTH and I’d love to chat with you about your goals. 🏡 No question is a silly question.

Nice video!

Many people think lighting candles or plugging in air fresheners before buyer tours will help sell their home. Trust me when I say, that is NOT the case🚫 Buyers can feel like you’re trying to hide odors or cover up something when they see candles burning or smell heavily perfumed air fresheners. If it smells, it doesn’t sell. And buyers may be so turned off they don’t even notice the amazing features of your home. Instead of trying to hide odors, do a deep cleaning and air out the house right before it goes on the market🧼 Pet owners should vacuum regularly and make sure litter boxes are inconspicuously placed, and always clean them out before showings. Keep in mind that 66% of households in the United States are pet owners and will not be turned off by a well kept pet friendly home🐾

I hear this SO much when people first want to buy a home & the good news is 2 parts: 1. You are not alone 2. There are many different loan programs that we can talk about and even some down payment assistance programs that can get you started! I have people that can help you fix your credit if that is something you need. I have all the tools and resources at my fingertips to help you start this process of buying a home and I’m so ready to make your dreams a reality! No question as a silly question.

Thank you for this informative video! 👏

Good info, thank you!

Let’s break it down💣 Housing is one of the biggest expenses in retirement and keeps many people working into their golden years If you pay additional money on your principal mortgage balance you can shave years off your mortgage loan AND save thousands of dollars in interest 🤯 You don’t need to refinance your mortgage and it doesn’t cost anything to use this method. You’re simply pre-paying money you already owe on your🏡 The key is to start NOW and be consistent until the mortgage loan is paid in full✅ Using an online mortgage calculator with the additional payments option, input your current mortgage balance, interest rate, and the desired retirement date🎯 Of course, this method only works if you’re buying your home. If you haven’t secured your housing payment with homeownership, let’s talk about the market and your options. No pressure and there are no silly questions. Knowledge is everything.

Let’s break it ⬇️ I have had clients want to buy a home & some of them have a car payment that is upwards of $2,000! What people don’t realize is that 2k in car payments can take away over 200k in buying power! What that means is that instead of qualifying for a 600k loan, now they only qualify for a 400k loan.🤯🤯HUGE difference. If you are planning on buying a home within the next year or so, DO NOT buy that new car. Wait until you get your home and gift yourself that new set of wheels AFTER closing!💨 There’s so many things that people don’t realize when they’re looking to purchase at home and that’s why you turn to a professional to learn the ins and outs! Plus, I have amazing preferred lenders who can help you get qualified for a loan & will get you the best rates! If you are thinking of buying a home this year, whether it’s for your family or to build your investment portfolio … let’s chat!🏡🏡🏡 No question is a silly question & I’d love to walk you through the process!

Yep haha but you didn’t say why

The waterfront around the lighthouse area is nasty. Brackish, shallow water filled with algae that stinks. They really should do something about it, but I’m not sure they can.
