real estate: Don't go solo -- Bring an agent! - 05/04/17 06:22 AM
Whether you are a member of the rebellion or the galactic empire, there are some things you can count on when buying a home. Here are the top 5 home buying lessons I have learned from the Star Wars franchise:
 
1. Know your planet! You wouldn’t buy lakefront property on Hoth. Do your research on where you want to live. If you are planning to move to a new area, find the Facebook group for that city and ask to join. Ask questions and ask your agent!
 
2. Don’t go solo, build a team! The Rebellion couldn’t do it alone, you shouldn’t either. … (1 comments)

real estate: 5 New Year's Resolutions that will result in buying a home in 2017! - 01/01/17 06:26 PM
1. Add It Up -- Take a moment to see where your money goes. Make a budget and look closely at your spending habits. Everyone has a secret splurge… Have you taken a moment to look at your coffee habit? Or those subscriptions you signed up for and never use?

 All this info can be great, and I do love having all of the info at my fingertips, but what about the info that we take … (4 comments)

real estate: From Buyer to Agent: My perspective - 07/17/16 02:58 AM

I became a wife and homeowner at the age of 24. It was 2003, and my mother owned a three-family home (the home that I grew up in). She offered to convert to condos and sell me one so I would have equity. I quickly found a mortgage broker and started the process. I knew nothing, and I didn’t have, want or need an agent. I … (26 comments)
