May 2

Graduations, celebrations of Mom, year-end recitals, cookouts, summer travel planning … May is always a busy month. But it also means summer is oh-so-close. Whether you like to go, go, go or lay low like a pro, you have your pick of options to do either. I'm planning on a little of both. As expected, this spring has been busy and challenging, but I'm always up for a good challenge! Inventory issues continue to provide job security for me. It's virtually impossible to buy or sell successfully without a knowledgeable agent at your side, and I have been privileged to guide many through these unprecedented times. If you are on the fence about whether moving right now is a good call for you, I will always give you my honest feedback with no obligation to act. So, let's chat soon and figure this out together!
