Inventory is Rising: Towns like Winnetka (+225%) and Lincolnshire (+218%) are seeing a surge in available homes, giving buyers more options than this time last year.

Speed Matters: If you are looking in Glencoe, you have to act fast—homes are selling in just over a week.

Opportunity in Evanston/Deerfield: With median prices down, these areas may offer a "buy low" opportunity for those looking to enter the North Shore market this winter.

From Festive to Fresh: The Art of the Winter Reset ❄️

Taking down the holiday décor doesn’t have to feel like a chore—it’s an opportunity to reclaim your space. Transition your home from "holiday hosting" to "winter cozy" with these three steps:

Edit as you pack: If you didn’t use it or don’t love it anymore, don’t store it! Keep your collection curated and intentional.

Store with care: Protect your favorites with labeled bins and categorized storage. Your future self will thank you next year!

Lean into "Winter Texture": Avoid the "bare house" blues by layering in wool throws, warm candlelight, and simple greenery that feels seasonal without being "holiday."

Are You Ready for Home Ownership?

Thinking about buying a home? Here’s what to consider before you start:

Financing - Check your credit score—it affects your interest rate. Talk to a lender to know what you can afford.

Down Payment - Make sure you have enough for a 5-20% down payment, plus extra for moving costs or repairs.

Market Trends - Know the market you’re buying in, especially if inventory is low. Be ready for a longer search.

Timing - Be prepared to move quickly when you find the right home. Have your pre-approval and earnest money ready.

There’s no perfect time to buy—it’s about what works for you. If you’re ready, I’m here to help you through the process!
