Talk to a lender before you start looking. Knowing your budget helps you shop confidently and shows sellers you’re serious. Beyond the down payment, budget for closing costs, property taxes, insurance, maintenance, and possible repairs.

Overpricing can cause your home to sit on the market too long. A competitive price attracts more buyers and often leads to stronger offers. First impressions matter. Clean up the yard, paint the front door, and make sure the exterior looks inviting. Declutter. Small improvements can make a big difference.

With a background in construction estimating and office management, I bring a strong understanding of property value, budgeting, and project coordination to the real estate field. I’ve also completed specialized training through the Kingdom 320 Mentorship Program, which emphasizes leadership, integrity, and client-centered service. Working alongside a team of experienced realtors, I continue to build my skills and knowledge to help clients navigate the buying and selling process with confidence.
