Blog Series: Neighborhood Report


What is the one thing Realtors® tell their buyers to consider above all other things? We've all heard it: "Location, Location, LOCATION". Deciding on and finding the perfect location for you can be difficult, especially if you are moving to a new area you are not familiar with. 

In this blog series I will be highlighting many of the neighborhoods in the areas I serve. I will try to answer some basic questions: 
 * Where is the neighborhood?
 * Is there an HOA? If so how much does it cost?
 * Link to the HOA if available - which can provide information on schools, size, restrictions, etc. 

I will also start to link the list of blog posts here in this blog. That way you can always come back to this post to find what neighborhoods have been featured.

Neighborhood Reports
 * Shenandoah
 * Edelweiss Estates
 * Austin's Colony
 * Castlegate
 * Castlegate II

If you have any neighborhoods you would like to see featured in this blog series please feel free to let me know!

I hope you find this series helpful! I would love the chance to help you choose the perfect neighborhood for you & your family!

Is your home prepared for a freeze?

Image
  We don't usually get "real" Winters in this area. If we dip below freezing over night it's usually just one night here & there during the Winter months. We rarely see snow and can go years without the worry of ice on the roads. This year is NOT that year. We've already seen a FULL day of snow that stuck, you could still see snowmen up to four days later. But that week was no where near as cold as the coming week is looking to get! With temperatures struggling to get above freezing for close to a week it's good to be prepared.  Stock up on necessities. You don't want to have to brave potentially ice covered roads to get to the grocery store or pharmacy. If you have prescriptions to pick up or need to plan for meals for a few days do that in advance of the winter blast that is coming. You may even want to plan for kids to potentially be home for a few days as here in the Southern states schools will often close if the roads become unsafe.  Keep your h

Prequalification vs. Preapproval: The first steps to getting you into the home of your dreams!

  Prequalification vs. Preapproval: The first steps to getting you into the home of your dreams! Purchasing your own home is a goal for many people. But if you haven't purchased a home before, or maybe haven't purchased a home in a long while, it's important to keep the first thing the first thing and understand HOW you will be purchasing your home. For the vast majority of people, they will be purchasing their home with a home loan or mortgage. Yes, I know all about those online calculators that tell you how much home you can afford, but I am here to tell you - it's so important to speak with a good lender. The information you can gain from them is more valuable than most people realize.  When you start the home searching process you will often hear about preapproval or prequalification or you may here both terms used interchangeably. These words mean very different things when it comes to your ability to actually purchase a home. So understanding the difference is imp

Creating your Home Office

Image
Creating your Home Office In recent months many (if not most) of us have found ourselves working much more from home. The fact is that none of us really knows if we might need to be able to work from home again in the future (ie. the Fall), but there are a host of reasons why anyone could need to work from home. There are definitely some pros and cons to working from home. There are also things that we can do to make the most of the pros & minimize the cons to make for an effective work day at home. Of course, having the office to actually GO to is nice. I don't even use a dedicated "office" at my office. I use the open spaces and love interacting with my coworkers. But just being there gives me more energy and more focus. Some will say that working from home is better for them; they struggle with distractions at the office and may be more creative at home. Neither is wrong but let's look at some ways to make the home office really work for us. What kind of space
