Over time, you learn that trust is not built in the moment of a sale, but in the quiet consistency that comes before and after it. It's about listening more than you speak, remembering the small things that matter to people, and showing up when it counts. Homes are where people live their stories, and when you help them find one, you become part of that story too.
To those unfamiliar with its charms, Tennessee's exact brand of magic tends to fly under the radar. Its nuances and diversity are too often overshadowed by Nashville's larger-than-life reputation, and its landlocked status does it image a disservice; Tennesseans do, in fact, have access to water-they have to fend off the Southern summer heat somehow-by way of lakes, streams, and major river systems.

We relied on search filters to define queries for years, but people share more about their preferences when it's a conversation. According to Redfin, early testing shows that users of the new system view nearly twice as many listings as those using standard search tools. They were also 47% more likely to request home tours or other services. When you're buying a home, the options can be overwhelming, said Abhishek Singh, a homebuyer who tested the feature.

Texas has welcomed a number of residents from less affordable parts of the country looking to get more for their money - and they may be on to something. Texas is becoming more than just a temporary escape from high costs on the way to homeownership;many of its cities can actually retain residents thanks to other assets that extend beyond sheer affordability.

Singing about 381 Union Street, Allen explains: "Now I'm looking at houses with four or five floors / And you've found us a brownstone, said 'You want it? It's yours' / So we went ahead and we bought it / Found ourselves a good mortgage / Billy Cotton got sorted / All the furniture ordered / I could never afford this / You were pushing it forward / Made me feel a bit awkward."
Benjamin Franklin famously said that nothing in life is certain except death and taxes. When I saw a recent article by Robert Bork Jr. claiming that the affordability crisis is due to some sort of Realtor tax, I stopped in my tracks. The only Realtor tax I'm aware of is the 15% self-employment tax I'm subject to as an independent contractor, above and beyond the taxes everyone else pays!

Dividends can offer a solid income stream in retirement and increase the total returns (capital gains, interest, dividends, and distributions earned over the long term)of your investments. With thousands of stocks trading in the market, it can become overwhelming to pick the right one, especially if you're on the hunt for yield. But if you're looking for steady monthly income and a high yield, you should consider investing in real estate investment trusts (REITs).
this week that reason is the fact that the episode begins with Whitney planning a garden party and singing an elaborate song (limerick?) about her friends for no apparent reason. And then, before we can even recover from that, Mary wonders why Whitney chose the venue that she did, informing us that the former owner killed his wife and himself on Christmas Day in front of their dog.
One of the most loathed front door types by designers and real estate agents alike, these styles are typically fiberglass with oval inserts that cover half to three quarters of the door, explains Jodi Terrell, owner and broker of JNG Real EstateSolutions. Oftentimes, the doors have ornate scrollwork between two panes of glass. And while they could potentially be lauded for letting in natural light, many of them have frosted glass, which blocks the sunshine and dates the doors even more.
It was the personal touch that won over Jay Luchs when Antonio Villaraigosa a Democrat making his second run for California governor called to talk about real estate. I respect him for picking up the phone and calling me to talk business personally and it made me interested in supporting him, Luchs, executive vice chairman at Newmark in Los Angeles, said via email. Plus there's the former Los Angeles mayor's stance on Measure ULA, a property tax which is criticized by developers in California for increasing the cost of and slowing the pace of development, despite being intended to fund housing solutions.
