I now pronounce you a #homeowner. Dating apps are better than home searches. #justsaying

These two listings had over 100 OFFERS between them. So there are at least 107 buyers out there still looking for their new home & that doesn't include the buyers who decided not to submit an offer with that much competition. Tell me why we haven't discussed selling your house?

And just like that...a buyer put a offeRING on it!!

You can do it!! Just buy the house first.

How it feels when someone says "will you be my Realtor?"

Dropping off a sign this morning on this rare, almost extinct breed, Housasaurus Ranch. Stay tuned for more details to come.

Apparently no one is immune to contractor delays. When a global pandemic hits, everyone had time to tackle those home renovation projects...everything from appliances to paint to toilets are backordered & delayed. Contractors and home builders are busier than ever. Have you dealt with this? (*Also not a political post, keep those comments to yourself.)

It took 7 days to get the first offer, which in this market feels like an eternity, but after the first, came others, and today after reviewing a spreadsheet of multiple offers, I can share that this beautiful home on Prospect Avenue is #undercontract

Words for such a time as this.

As Zillow goes from consumer platform to actually competing with brokers, more and more agents are finding that their profiles show little to no activity... THIS is one of many reasons I didn't/don't support them. I've always made sure I had a visible profile that was kept current. Agents who have spent thousands of dollars on Zillow leads find themselves looking like complete novices according to their website. (And that house didn't sell for $166k. )

My #NewYear #PSA... you're welcome. Oh.... Happy New Year!!

Great lenders make all the difference & in this case a bad lender made it especially frustrating, but after almost 70 days and on the last day of 2020, my seller can call this one DONE!!

Excited to have clients be able to bring in 2021 in their new home!! This Northland home was a perfect way to usher in the new year.

My turn... #5differentlookschallenge

Make sure to make the most of the gifts that today presents.

One of the most important things that listing agents and sellers can do is take heed to the feedback given by the market. This is especially true when we find a listing isn't moving as fast as the rest of the competition. With the expert recommendations of a professional stager, the skills of a luxury listing photographer and mad painting skills of my sellers, amazing transformations can happen like this one. 5604 Meadow Court South in coveted Riss Lake will be coming back on the market soon with a new look! What do you think??

Three new listings went live yesterday from South Kansas City to Merriam KS and the Northland near World's of Fun. Which is your favorite??

Getting this listing under contract is a great way to start the week!! I think the buyer will love this great Raytown Townhome!!

Who doesn't love a good sneak peek?? A true four bedroom in Merriam, KS with fresh updates and a HUGE basement with tons of potential?? What's not to love?? #ComingSoon #10015W60thStreet #JThomasRE

So grateful for clients that put their trust in me!!

Got another awesome new listing hitting the market next weekend!! A spacious four bedroom, two bathroom home with a large basement that provides tons of opportunity!!
