Let me tell you about my thoughts on timing right now…

Waiting for the “perfect” moment usually costs more than it saves. The buyers and sellers seeing the best results aren’t chasing headlines — they’re making informed moves based on their numbers, their goals, and what’s actually happening locally. Timing isn’t about guessing the market. It’s about being prepared when opportunity shows up. If you want to talk through your timing, let’s chat.

There is always one early signal that tells me whether your home will fly or sit — and some sellers miss it.

It shows up before offers, before feedback, and sometimes before the first weekend even hits. It’s the pattern in how buyers respond in the first 24–48 hours — the clicks, the saves, the quiet interest that never shows up on a sign-in sheet.

That early signal tells me exactly what needs to happen next: a price adjustment, a photo refresh, a staging tweak, or simply patience because momentum is building — just quietly.

Most sellers assume the market speaks loudly. In reality, it whispers first.

If you’re planning to sell this year, pay attention to the early data. It’s the difference between a fast, confident sale and weeks of unnecessary second-guessing.

Comment EARLY and I’ll send you the checklist I use to read those first signals the right way.

Kitchen updates buyers will care about in 2026 🍽️

Not every upgrade moves the needle anymore. Buyers are paying attention to kitchens that feel intentional — better lighting, smart storage, quality surfaces, and layouts that actually work for everyday life. Before you renovate or list, it’s worth knowing which updates add value and which just add cost. Want a short list tailored to your neighborhood? Comment KITCHEN.

Which neighborhood in your area is about to blow up in 2026?
There’s always one spot where renovations pick up, small businesses move in, and prices start shifting before anyone’s really talking about it. Locals usually notice the momentum first — long before the data does.

Here’s the January pattern I see every year:

1️⃣ Serious buyers move first.
While everyone else waits for spring, motivated buyers tour now—and quietly secure the best options before competition spikes.

2️⃣ Sellers are more open to negotiation.
January sellers usually have real timelines, not guesswork. That creates flexibility you won’t see in March or April.

3️⃣ Low competition = high leverage.
Fewer buyers in the market means fewer offers, which gives early movers the advantage on price, terms, and timing.

Once you understand this pattern, you stop waiting for the “right time” and start using the market to your benefit.

My New Year’s resolution? Fewer MLS refreshes.
My actual behavior? Unchanged.

January buyers move fast, and so do the good listings—so yes, I’ll be refreshing like it’s a competitive sport. If you’re planning a move early this year, let’s get your search dialed in now.

Every agent has that one neighborhood they’d move to if they ever stopped selling it. You know—the one with quiet streets, walkable coffee spots, and homes that somehow feel right every time you show them.

The funny part? Helping other people move there never gets old.

What’s the neighborhood you always find yourself drawn to? ☕

Buy now or in 2027? Here’s the math no one is running. 💡

Even a small rate drop won’t offset three years of rising prices and lost equity. Waiting often feels safe — but in real numbers, it can mean paying more for the same home later. The smartest buyers run the math, not the headlines.

Your resolution doesn’t need a gym — it needs a pre-approval letter. 💡

Because the real flex this year isn’t lifting weights — it’s being prepared before the spring rush hits. Getting pre-approved early means you’re ready to move quickly when the right home appears.

Thinking about buying in 2026? Comment READY and I’ll show you where to start.
