Tomorrow is July 2, 2021 and that means we’re halfway DONE with 2021! So how was the real estate market in the first half of the year, and what can we expect for the second half? Here’s where we’ve been and where we *may* be going: Where the market has been: Inventory = Low... Interest rates = Even lower Prices = High (up 15.8% on average year-over-year) Days on market = Measured in hours, not days Where the market *may* be going: Inventory = Slight uptick, but still a seller’s market Interest rates = Small hike, but relatively low overall Prices = Will continue to climb, albeit at a slower pace than the first half of the year Sales = Suburbia focused, but interest in city living makes a comeback Have you had time to reflect on the first half of 2021? Where may you be headed in the second half? If your plans include real estate, I’d love to connect. Drop me a message, and I’ll be in touch. #suwanee #suwaneega #suwaneeliving #suwaneetowncenter #gwinnett #gwinnettcounty #forsythcounty #atlanta #atl #atlantamoms #exploregwinnett #georgiapeach #atlantaliving #housebeautiful #homesweethome #homedecor #sellyourhome #houseinterior #newhome #realtorlife #highendhomes #alpharetta #johnscreek #duluthga #roswellga

Buyers are on high alert when they pull up to your home. Stop ‘em in their tracks with these curb appeal tips: 1. Edge the driveway. Keeping the grass cut is a must, but if you wanna go the extra mile, edge the sides of your driveway and walkway for an even more manicured look. 2. Seasonal color. No time for a complete yard makeover? No worries. Splash your front porch with planters of seasonal color. 3. Mailbox makeover. Mailbox looking dingy? Grab some spray paint and ...new mailbox numbers to impress buyers and make finding your house a cinch. Thinking about selling? Up for an initial conversation just to test the waters?

5 interior designs trends to know for your next Target, IKEA, or HomeGoods run: 1. Accessories: More is more! Consider this permission to pull out all those tucked away travel souvenirs and trinkets you put into storage when minimalism was the hot ticket. 2. Good news for thrift-store fanatics! Worn wood tones are in. As supply issues linger from COVID-19, now is a great time to refinish pieces you own instead of waiting months for something brand-new to come in.... 3. Wallpaper: Yep. It’s true. I’ve seen it coming for months, but now, it’s official. Afraid of commitment? Check out the host of temporary wallpaper products many companies are offering. 4. Entertaining is back. Time to toss the pandemic-friendly stadium cups and paper plates. With the world opening back up, you’ll want some new pieces for entertaining. Grab a colorful set of glasses, melamine dishware (perfect for the outdoors!), or that cozy fire pit you’ve had your eye on all year. 5. If there’s a favorite material in interior design right now, it’s rattan. Weave it into your abode by adding a rattan chair to your den or purchasing a set of rattan chargers for the dining room. What are you loving in home design this summer? I’d love to hear! All I know is I'm finally feeling it again. YES! . . . #suwanee #suwaneega #suwaneeliving #suwaneetowncenter #gwinnett #gwinnettcounty #forsythcounty #atlanta #atl #atlantamoms #exploregwinnett #georgiapeach #atlantaliving #housebeautiful #homesweethome #homedecor #sellyourhome #houseinterior #newhome #openhouse #realtorlife #highendhomes #alpharetta #johnscreek #duluthga #roswellga See more

Comment below and tell me which of these light fixtures is your favorite! Choosing fixtures for your home can be complicated. If you’ve ever visited a lighting store, you know exactly what I’m talking about. To break it down into bite-sized bits, it might be helpful to review the three different types of lighting:... 1. Ambient lighting: the main source of light in a room (think overhead fixtures or recessed lighting). 2. Task lighting: the lighting tasked for activities such as working or reading (meant to illuminate a small area; not an entire room). 3. Accent lighting: the most decorative lighting in a room (think chandeliers, sconces, and lamps). As you plan, remember most rooms have two types of lightingsome all three. Make a list of the rooms in your home and the different types of lighting you need. Then, you can shop with clarity and purpose even amidst the blinding lights. .. .. .. #suwanee #suwaneega #suwaneeliving #suwaneetowncenter #gwinnett #gwinnettcounty #forsythcounty #atlanta #atl #atlantamoms #exploregwinnett #georgiapeach #atlantaliving #housebeautiful #homesweethome #homedecor #sellyourhome #houseinterior #newhome #openhouse #realtorlife #alpharetta #johnscreek #duluthga #roswellga #lighting See more

QUESTION The house I want to put an offer on is ‘for sale by owner.’ How does it work to buy FSBO when I already have an agent? ANSWER Great questions! Your agent should help you seal the deal no matter how a home is listed. In fact, top agents regularly comb FSBO listings to find the perfect home for clients. If it’s the house you want that’s all that matters! To buy FSBO, your agent will help you do all the things you would if the house were being sold by a sel...ler’s agent. That means he or she will: Check comps to determine if the asking price is fair. Write up your offer and negotiate the contract. Guide you through the inspection and closing. Having an agent on your side will ensure you get the best price and that the entire process will be smooth and enjoyable. Regardless of how, when, or where you buy, don’t go it alone!
