Anyone else have a special place they’ve lived,

Anyone else have a special place they’ve lived, visited, or brings up a beautiful memory? I have a few!

When I first moved to Arizona, I lived all over the valley. I couldn’t quite find ‘my spot’ so to speak. It wasn’t until my husband and I moved to Gilbert that I finally found a place that felt right. No, it’s not my Hawaii home but it’s my desert home that has taught me to love and appreciate AZ for all it has to offer. That’s why I decided to create a @mapiful poster to commemorate our favorite city in the valley. 🌵

Where is your ‘spot’ that makes you feel at home?

Spring is known to be the best time to sell your h

Spring is known to be the best time to sell your home… With the holidays over and the weather starting to warm up, bring on the fresh flowers, sunshine, and a red-hot sellers market!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you are looking to sell your home in the near future, there’s no time like the present! Why is it a good time to sell your house, you might ask?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. BUYERS ARE GETTING SERIOUS⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As summer starts to draw near, buyers will often be in more of a rush, hoping to move before the school year starts.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. THE DEMAND IS HIGH⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The demand for housing is high, but the supply is still low. If you are looking to sell, it’s smart to use this to your advantage.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. MORE BUYERS = MORE POTENTIAL OFFERS⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The more buyers, the more potential offers; the more potential offers, the higher chance your home price will rise!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4. YOU CAN GET A HEAD START⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Since it’s only March, you still have plenty of time to prepare and get your home on the market in time for spring.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
5. IT’S A SELLERS MARKET⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Buyers will face a competitive spring season in 2021, which means it’s likely you’ll be able to sell your home for a higher price and on a quicker timeline. As a seller, how could you pass that up?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’re considering selling your home this season and are looking for a real estate agent, send me a quick message or give me a call! I’d love to chat more with you to see if we’d be a good match!

“What is a buyer rep agreement?”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A buyer rep agreement is a contract that formalizes the relationship between a perspective home buyer and a real estate agent. This agreement helps to protect the real estate agent, but that doesn’t mean the home buyer can’t get great value out of it as well!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
By signing a buyer rep agreement, you agree to work ONLY with that particular agent for an agreed-upon period of time. Depending on the real estate agent, you might be asked to sign this contract before the first scheduled showing. Some realtors may agree to work together for a bit of time beforehand, but just know that you will be required to sign a buyer rep agreement before you officially put an offer in on a home!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When you sign this agreement with your trusted realtor, you ARE making a commitment. But your agent is also making a promise to you - to be 100% committed to working with you find a home (at a price you can afford), to represent and stay loyal to you, to keep your best interests in mind, and to ensure that you are #1 priority over any other parties involved in the transaction.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Generally speaking, signing a buyer rep agreement is a good idea. The contract may seem intimidating or unnecessary in some situations, but it’s meant to protect you, allow you to have the most positive home buying experience possible, and ensure that everyone is on the same page!

When decorating a kid’s bedroom, you’ll probab

When decorating a kid’s bedroom, you’ll probably want to incorporate fun and creative elements while still keeping it functional, decorative, and stylish.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here are a few of my favorite ways to decorate:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Use toys as decor! Hang open shelves and fill them with toys, books, dolls, lego structures, stuffed animals, and blocks to establish a "home" for each item.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. Decorate with neutrals! Of course, a pop of color is always fun, especially in a kids space but keeping it neutral allows your child to grow into their space without having to redecorate frequently!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. Use educational items! Hang maps on the wall, throw in a fun globe, stack up some favorite books, maybe some development toys.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4. Create a good storage system! Using baskets and bins with labels keeps everything looking neat and clean, and you’ll always know where everything is located.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
5. Add fun photos and prints! Frame some fun prints and hang them on the wall to add an extra touch to your kids space.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you have any kids bedroom tips you’ve found helpful? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
