No Two The Same

No two houses are the same. The same builder can build the same floorplan using all the same colors, materials, subcontractors, and more down to the last detail but no two houses are the same.

I have never had a client tell me that they want a cookie-cutter house. Instead, they say they want something unique. I don't blame them. It just makes sense.

The thing that sets identical homes apart is the location. Each building lot or acreage is different so that keeps "identical" houses from being the same. The phrase "location, location, location" has been drilled into our minds for as long as I can remember. But it's true! Location is critical. Location has a huge effect on value. Even if you plan to live in your new home until God calls you home you should always buy like you will have to sell. Even if you never do, your home is typically your biggest asset. Buy it right and you'll be glad you did.

We can help you find the best house in the best location that best fits your budget. As for cookie cutters, they're fun with cookie dough or play-doh, but not so much in real estate...

Move In Ready

Sometimes the words used to describe real estate do not seem to be accurate. Priced to sell - 365 days later... Owner says bring all offers - we are required to bring all offers made by any buyer to our sellers. Move in ready - well, move in and live or move in the bulldozers?

A Thousand Words

It's important to have good photos on your listing. Good photos are a preview of what the buyer will see when they tour your property.

Does the photo above make you want to see this house or move on?

Adding Value

There are many home improvement projects you can tackle. Updating a bathroom, new kitchen counters or cabinets, expanding the master bedroom, or installing a comfortable swing. Which one does not add value to the property?

The Hidden Room

Just about every buyer and every seller should always look for the hidden room. There are the obvious rooms, the living room, the dining room, the kitchen, the bedrooms, the bathrooms, the laundry room, sometimes even a family room or a bonus room. But the room I'm talking about is one you can't see.

The hidden room is usually not discovered until you enter negotiations. Often that's when the buyer or the seller discover it. It's call the "room to negotiate"!

Sorry, I couldn't resist...

Going Green

One of the latest trends in real estate is going green. I'm not talking about green paint, green siding, or green shingles. I'm talking about earth friendly, energy conscious updates or construction techniques.

On our MLS listing forms we now have boxes to check if a home is "certified green", has high efficiency heating and cooling, energy star appliances, improved indoor air quality, water conservation or purifiers, if anything was re-used or recycled, and more!

What have you done green? What are you planning to green up?

Ugly House Ahead

Sometimes they make it easy to realize the house you're about to see is not for you. Sometimes you have to drive by, sometimes you have to go inside, sometimes you don't find out until the home inspection.

Having us as your buyer's agent will give you extra eyes, lots of experience and a sense of humor on your side!

Staging Your Home

When it comes time to put your home on the market it pays huge dividends to stage it. Staging simply means making it look as good as possible so that prospective buyers will see how beautiful your home really is. When they tour your home you don't want them focusing on the wall of photos trying to figure out if they know you or any of your relatives. You also don't want them seeing a poorly kept home and jumping to the logical conclusion that routine home maintenance has slipped too.

When you hire us we will give you advice for a few, or maybe a lot of changes to help you make a good impression when your buyers see your home!

Downsize

Some of us struggle with our weight. Once in a while it comes over us to go on a diet or to exercise or better yet...both!

When we do the same thing with our home we downsize. What are good reasons to downsize? Um... maybe the house is too big since our children have moved out; or maybe the budget just doesn't support the house payment, the taxes, the insurance, the utilities; it could be that our priorities have changed. Maybe you used to entertain a lot or have lots of out-of-town visitors and you wanted to have that extra space. Maybe you are nearing retirement and would rather have a maintenance free condo or just less house and less yard to worry about as you travel or as you try to live on that fixed income.

Whatever the reason, we can help you determine what the market value of your home is so that you can run the numbers to see if downsizing is in your future.

Why I Do The Things I Do...

Our two little girls are having a blast this summer! We have made lemonade from the lemons of a down market. Twelve years in real estate and this has been the summer with the least number of appointments...that's the lemons. The lemonade is that I have been able to spend a lot more time with our little ones. More time at the Republic pool (thankful for season passes), more time at Silver Dollar City (thanks to Granny for season passes), more time at Skateland (where I am now), more time at kidsbowlfree.com Battlefield Lanes, and more. I think I'm driving them crazy and they may be driving me crazy too. God knows I will never regret spending so much time with them. I've heard it said that nobody has ever said on their deathbed, "I wish I had spent more time at the office!"

So here's the deal, interest rates are at record lows, housing prices are the lowest they've been in many years, there are lots of homes to choose from so email me, text me, call me, flag me down and let me help you find your next home!

God is good!
