Thank you so much for your testimonial, Eric!

“OK where should I begin

Rachel may have had thousands of clients in her career, but I think we could be put in the top 20 for most challenging clients and keeping her on her toes.
She was very patient and understanding when we had pulled offers on three separate homes. We were aware this takes time to prepare offers
and she is putting her reputation of many years on the line with our instant change of decisions.

In the end she really understood we needed to find the right home that felt comfortable for me and more important my wife…which is another story.

Rachel took charge on the small details that need to be covered and demonstrated she always has her clients best interest. One example is on our closing with a seller there were a  number of repairs that were not completed. Rachel took it upon herself and called the contractors to confirm the repairs would be made. she even went a step further and found one of her own contractors to replace a window that the seller told their realtor that it was in the process of being replace. Which was not the case, in my opinion the sellers Realtor should share some of her commission for what Rachel did to help with the repairs.

I have never recommended a realtor to someone, that is the truth but I keep Rachel’s card in my wallet to give to anyone looking for a relator that has a passion to please her clients.

Best Regards”

Three things to consider before buying a townhome.

townhome3 Points to Consider Before Buying a Townhome

Ready to downsize? Looking for a property that’s maintenance-free? A townhome might be for you. Here are points to consider before buying a townhome.

  • Are you ready to share a wall with a neighbor? This may be an unexpected point to consider, but if you’ve spent most of your homeownership years with a lot of space between your house and the neighbors, it’s something to discuss.
  • What are your outside space expectations? Many townhomes will feature decks, patios and/or small yards, but some will not. Think about how much you spend your leisure time outside, and whether the townhome complex has green space or nearby parks.
  • Do you like the idea of an HOA? Most townhomes will have a homeowners association. For a monthly or annual fee you will receive benefits such as lawn care, a party room or clubhouse, workout center, and monitored security.

Pricing your home can be overwhelming.. I am here to help!!

9a5d95a1-c1ef-4ab6-885f-e8be77547c25Pricing your Home in Today’s Market

Deciding to sell your home is a big decision. The next big decision in the selling process is pricing your home. There is an art and a science to this critical step, so your best bet is to utilize the expertise of a real estate professional.

Setting the right asking price for your home without professional help is much like defending yourself in court without a lawyer – you can do it, but it comes at a risk. Avoid pricing yourself out of your local market, or under-valuing your home, by working with a knowledgeable real estate professional.

Realtors® have exclusive access to information and a vast knowledge to pull from to help you appropriately price your home. They can provide insight on pricing trends in your area for similar homes, so yours is competitive.

Real estate professionals will be able to take into account home improvements and amenities in your home. They will also consider square footage, the age of the home and the benefits of your neighborhood, such as a great school district, walking trails, nearby shopping, public transportation, and green spaces.

The job of a Realtor® is to stay up-to-date on pricing trends in your local housing market. Valuable insights into where the market is headed will help you sell your home in the shortest amount of time.

I can help stage your home to give you the opportunity to get the most money possible for your home!! I am here for YOU!

5 Steps Toward Early Retirement

Retiring early is all about financial habits and willpower. If you are willing to make the necessary changes, early retirement can be achieved no matter where you are in your career now.

  1. Start today

There’s no better time to start than now. Simple as that.

  1. Pay off debt

It’s hard to start saving when you have thousands of dollars of debt looming overhead. Buckle down and make significant payments on debt to buy yourself the freedom to start investing in your retirement.

  1. Create a plan

Stick to a plan that you can contribute to monthly and track your progress. Decide how much you want to have saved up by the time you retire, then decide at what age you would like to retire. Now calculate how much you need to save each month in order to meet this goal. (You may need to consult a financial planner.)

  1. Spend wisely

Really think about your needs and limit spending on expensive items that only bring temporary satisfaction, such as a new car, boat or RV.

  1. Think long-term

Living on less will help you down the line, so learn to downsize. Every little bit helps. Bring your lunch to work, ride your bike more often or trade your expensive annual vacation for a stay-cation.

So thankful for my amazing clients! Thank you for letting me be of service!

“Rachel really showed up for us!  It was a challenging and nerve racking adventure, but she went above and beyond.  The buyer’s agent was new, and needed handholding.  The buyers kept changing loans, and pushing all the way to the end.  Rachel remained steadfast and got the deal done and closed on time!  Whew!  She really knows her business and was there for us at every turn. No one wants a messy deal, but if you end up in one it’s great to have Rachel on your team.  She’s patient, considerate, effective and professional all the way!” -Shell Tain

I am so thankful to be of service to you and your family, Shell. It was an honor working with you!
