💡 Quick Tips

For Buyers:
This is a great window to get serious. Interest rates have stabilized, and the best homes still go quickly. Be ready to move with pre-approval in hand.

For Sellers:
Now’s the time to prep your home. Price it well, make it shine, and list before competition ramps up in late spring. If you haven’t already, check out our Spring Seller Checklist.
