This one felt like ✨kismet✨

One client needed room to breathe on their move-out date. The other had a short list of must-haves and the patience to wait for the right fit. And I got to play matchmaker 🩷

Swipe through for how it came together.

When it comes to home styles, do you have a "type?"

Mine is for sure a colonial - it's the home I live in, and the one that always catches my eye. I love the symmetry, the classic lines, and the functional layout. So naturally, when these two listings landed with Maywright Property Co., I had to share them! One is a colonial through and through. The other...well, there's been some debate - Colonial, Prairie, German Revival? But I suspect it was built by the same builder as my own home, which makes it feel like family regardless of what you call it. 😊

Are you a colonial person too, or is your heart somewhere else (Tudor? Craftsman? Mid-century modern)?

Either way, if you're dreaming about your next home, I'd love to help you find it!

These sellers set a new standard for what it means to prepare a home for market. Every project was completed, every detail was considered, and the house was cared for in a way that buyers noticed immediately.

The result - a sale 8% over asking, a price per square foot 23% higher than the average comparable sale, no repair requests during inspection, and a smooth, quick closing.

Lucky buyers, lucky sellers, and a great reminder that thoughtful preparation pays off. Congratulations, friends! ❤️

Upsizing, downsizing, marriage, divorce, babies, moving out of state...

Each of these closings marks the start of a new chapter for my clients that I'm grateful to help navigate. Behind the scenes, many of these also earned a chapter in the real estate book I joke about writing someday about tricky/unique transactions 🫣. Lots of phone calls, contractor coordination, negotiations, and creative problem solving along the way. Thankfully, they all had a happy ending!

A few glimpses of a 125-year-old beauty before the full reveal next week. 👀

Some closings mean saying goodbye to a home that’s been in the family for decades and holds a lifetime of memories. Some closings mean handing over keys to a young family buying their very first home together and getting to start making those memories themselves. 🩷

Really grateful for the opportunity to help my clients through all the different chapters life brings!

Mudroom + half bath add everyday convenience, and sliding doors off the kitchen lead to a deck and fully fenced yard.
