I baked some French bread yesterday, as I’ll need loaves for a few dinners I’m planning for some friends and wanted to have the bread made.There is a wonderful neighbor couple down the way, he is struggling with Parkinson’s and dementia and can be a handful. They have a sweet little dog and she is blessed with a green thumb. Her gardens, all around her house are such a treat to enjoy! I’ve been meaning to pop in and thought now would be a good time and I would take a freshly baked, half of loaf of French bread to them. I’m so glad I did! It was good to see them and she showed me all around her gardens and we visited on their new deck. When I left she said I’d like you to take a rose from one of my prized rose bushes! Then she cut fresh mint form a huge patch growing among her flowers! S... 04/15/2024

Yesterday Beckett (#4) was ready to “play ball” with her Smurf’s team game at 9 am at the NAO (North Austin Optimist ) fields in Austin! A perfect day with blue sky, sun and a breeze!

I work with buyers providing advocacy, support, and expertise. My commitment is to find my buyers what they are looking for, in the time frame they want and for the best price. It’s a process I take seriously. Buyers committed to my services are on my “A” list and I work tirelessly every day for them. Many other professional agents work the same way.

Therefore, review the most important things you must include in your prep strategy.Start with declutteringDecluttering is the only way to strip away the aspects of your home that buyers might find unappealing. That’s because clutter detracts from the ‘feel’ of a home and makes it difficult for buyers to grow attached.
