A beautiful kitchen can make people drool over your home. But a kitchen that’s beautiful and is packed with storage space? That’s a dream right there.

If you’re renovating your kitchen soon, make sure to put storage space high up on your list of priorities. Here’s where you can sneak in some extra storage space to create a highly functional space:

Back of deep shelves (aka where your spices and pantry items go and never come out)

Corner cabinets with unused space at the back

Space between your cabinets and the ceiling

Space next to your fridge

When you find the areas where you have empty, unused, or underutilized space, pay attention to it and see how you can maximize the space for storage!

Make sure to save this post so you have it ready for your kitchen remodel research phase.

Be honest: are you stuck in this trap right now? 😣

If your expectations for what your home will sell for don’t match the local market, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment. 💔

Here’s the harsh reality of things:

The buyers on the market just don’t care how much you think your home SHOULD sell for or how much you WISH it would sell for.

Instead, they care about what comparable properties are selling for and whether your home lines up with the rest of the prices on the market. 📈

Overpricing your home based on what you want to see it sell at is a great way to scare buyers away and let your home stagnate on the market. ☹️

This is why it’s so important to go into the selling process without preconceived notions about what your home should sell for based on your expectations and feelings.

The cure for feeling stressed about equity ⬇️

It’s understandable. Equity is the core of your real estate investment. It’s what you’ll get back in your pocket if you were to sell your home and pay off your mortgage.

The more equity you have, the more ownership you have in your home, and the more money you get when you sell. 💰

If you want to build equity fast and reduce the amount of interest you pay, the answer is simple.

Focus on making extra payments when you can!

If you get a mid-year bonus or have an extra paycheck during a month with 5 weeks, put that towards your mortgage.

Even small contributions add up to provide you with more equity, and more money back when you sell. 🤑

Send this post to a friend who’s a homeowner so they can build equity quickly too!

Just a little reminder for ya. 💭

One of the hardest things to remember (and come to terms with) is that not making a decision IS actually a decision.

Not taking the risk IS a risk in and of itself.

While you think that you’re planning, or getting ready to decide, or taking your time deciding, you’ve already made the decision to wait. 😅

No matter what it is in life that you’re deciding, it’s important to keep this in mind.

Are you going to take action or are you going to stay where you are?

It’s all a decision.

Need some expert advice on making that decision? 💼 Just send a DM and let’s chat.

This hack is literally everything. 👇

Choosing the right neighborhood is one of the most important decisions you can make when buying a home.

You can renovate your home, expand it, and make it into what you want… but you can’t change your neighborhood without moving. 📦

To make sure you stay happy with your choice of home, it’s worth putting some thought and consideration into the neighborhood you buy in. 🏘️

But how do you choose the right neighborhood for your future?

Here’s one great way to get the inside scoop on the neighborhoods you’re looking at:

Join the neighborhood Facebook groups and ask some questions! 🙋

This allows you to ask the people currently living in the neighborhood and get a real idea of what it’s like to live there.

People are often thrilled to answer questions about their neighborhood and to help you see if it’s the right choice for you.

Send this post to a friend thinking about buying a home!

Check what you’re pre-approved for BEFORE assuming you can actually afford that amount.

A pre-approval is an estimate from your lender on how much they can lend to you while still protecting their business interests.

This amount is usually WAY more than most people are comfortable spending. 😰

When you get your pre-approval amount, take a closer look at it to see if you’re happy with the monthly payment it would put you at.

If you’re not (and don’t be surprised when this happens!), you need to look at your budget, decide on a monthly payment you’re comfortable with, and look at homes based on THAT number, not the pre-approval amount. 💸

Your agent will help you through this process so you can end up in a home that won’t make you house-broke.

Send this to your homebuying partner so you can look at your budget together and find a good price range for your home search!

There’s a reason why all of these “ingredients” are highly recommended. 🧂

It’s just not as good without them.

In some cases, it’s actually dangerous! 🙅

Listen, you don’t *have* to do anything…

But if you want the best results, you might want to pull in that missing ingredient.

This is especially true if you’ve listed your home for sale on your own.

You’ll quickly realize how much time, market knowledge, and experience play into selling a home successfully. 💰 🏠

If you want to best and easiest homeselling experience, it’s smart to pull in a trusted real estate agent.

BONUS: Homes sold by agents usually sell for more than those sold by owners, which easily covers the agent’s commission!

Let’s get this straight. 📐

When it comes to selling your home, you need to make some choices.

One of the biggest choices when selling your home is the decision to sell it fast or sell it smart. ⏱️ 🧠

If you need to sell your home quickly, we can make it happen. This option is best when you have a big life change (like a new job or a growing family) or when you need to downsize.

But on the flip side, if you have a little more time and want to make the most profit, you should focus on selling smart and maximizing your home’s sales price.

No matter what your situation is, we can work together to create a successful selling strategy that will help you reach your real estate goals. 🏠

If only everyone knew this. 😞

It’s easy to get caught up in the latest mortgage interest rate drama.

Are they going to continue to decrease? Or is another rate hike in our future? 📈

But let’s be real here: interest rates are only one small piece of your monthly mortgage payment.

If you want to successfully buy a home, you need to focus more on the mortgage payment as a whole and way less on the interest rate!

Remember: your mortgage payment is comprised of:

- Principal payment

- Property taxes

- Insurance premiums

- HOA dues

- PMI

- Interest

The interest you pay is just one small part of it. While it’s good to get your interest rate as low as you can, it’s much more important to get a mortgage that you can afford and consistently pay. 🙂

Save this if you’re home shopping!

This is a hack that all renters need to know!

Buying a home requires some upfront cash for closing costs–and that can make the idea of paying rent on your lease and a mortgage payment at the same time unappealing. 💸 😞

But there’s a way around this…

It all comes down to clever timing with when your home purchase closes. 📅

Here’s what you need to know:

When you buy a home, you typically won’t pay the mortgage for the first month since it’s included in your closing costs!

For example, if you buy a home in February, you won’t make your first mortgage payment until April 1st. That means that if your lease also ends in February, you’ll go through March without making any rent or mortgage payments. 💰 😄

You can use this timing trick to avoid paying mortgage and rent in the same month, which can add more money to your wallet for fun things like new paint or furniture for your new home.

Save this if you’re home shopping!

This will NEVER happen when we work together! 🙅

Some agents might tell you to list your home for more than they think it’s worth in an attempt to make the highest commission. 😞 This is already a problem but it gets worse!

Homes that are priced too high often end up sitting on the market and look like a big red flag to buyers. ⛳

Not only does this end up scaring off great buyers, making it take longer to sell your home, but it also will usually decrease the price that your home does sell for. 📉

Ultimately, the price you list your home at is your decision–not your agent’s. You just want to make sure that you have an agent you can trust to be honest with you and support your best interests!

When we work together, you can rest assured that the recommendations and suggestions provided are honest and support YOUR best interests.
