You want to buy a house- this is a good thing! But you also love cats and/or dogs and want to buy a little buddy. What do you do? I vote- buy the house first and THEN get the pet of your dreams. Why? Firstly, if you are renting a home while you have a

A simple truth here: a good team makes buying or selling a home better. Like, a lot better. This summer, I had a review from a first time home buyer that was very positive and talked about how excited they were to own a home and how easy it all was. Except- it wasn’t! For

Quick tip- if your real estate agent can’t drive around your town and neighborhood without a GPS, they probably aren’t the right Realtor for you.

Every seller’s nightmare- but it happens to some. You’ve listed your home for sale- but it just. Won’t. Sell. What do you do now? If your property isn’t selling, there is a problem with your price, condition, or location. You can’t do anything about your location- but you CAN do something about the other two
