✨ SELLER PSA ✨
Multiple offers can happen when you understand this ⬇️
If you’re like the sellers I’ve worked with....
You want to sell your home for every dollar it’s worth. 💰
So, when you go to sell, the rational thing would be to price it high, right? 🚫
Not quite. 😉
When you price high (over market value), buyers who show interest start looking for all the reasons to ask, “is this home \*really\* worth that much? 🤔”
When you price slightly below market value, buyers will think “Dang, that’s a really great deal, I gotta have it ASAP!” And any minor quirks about the home fall to the wayside.
⭐️ The BEST part? This pricing strategy will bring lots of people who share that exact same sentiment ^
That’s THE BIGGEST thing you need to know about receiving multiple offers quickly (which usually lands the seller at or above the market value 🥳).
If selling your home in 2025 is on your to-do list drop “PLAYBOOK” in the comments for my most requested resource for prepping your home to sell.

💡 Did you know this? ↓
Your school district might impact your home’s value more than any upgrade. 🏫
Even if you don’t have kids, this matters:
📊 Homes in top-rated school districts sell faster
💰 Appraisers factor school performance into value
🏡 Homes in high-performing suburban districts are worth up to 49% more than the national average
If you’re a homeowner in Ankeny or Waukee, this is something to keep in mind—especially if you’re thinking about selling or buying in the future.

Referral + Relocation is the story behind this closing! I helped a family move to the area for career reasons last year, and they referred Penny to me this year to do the same! We had a blast looking at new construction homes all over the metro, but the budding community of Altoona and this amazing @greenlandhomesiowa home won her heart! 🏡♥️
Congratulations on your new home and your promotion, Penny! Thanks for your trust in me to make this big move! 🎉🙏🏽 🔑💕
Looking to make a move soon?! I can help! 🙋🏽♀️

Took a rainy drive to Stuart, Iowa today… 🚗 🌧️
To visit @doeadeerdesign ! When I first got into real estate, owner Regan, designed a personalized hand towel with my logo and cutest by-hand drawn design on it to gift my clients. I just re-ordered a batch and decided to pick them up instead of having them shipped so I could visit her storefront for the first time. So glad I did! They have been a favorite gifting shop of mine forever, and believe me friends- so worth the drive! 💝

The Thacker Family fell in love at first sight with a new construction @caliberhomes in Prairie Trail, and the rest was history! I had the pleasure of selling their previous home (also in Prairie Trail!) and helping them secure the new one! They’re not only neighbors, but friends- and it’s so fun to keep up with them and their family whether via pop-bys, or a wave while out on a neighborhood walk!
Thank you, Thackers! ♥️

It’s always extra special when I get to work with both the seller and buyer on the transition (I don’t like calling it a “deal” or transaction”!) of a home. 🏡 🔑 ♥️
Today is a day of celebrating - closing a chapter on the family home for my seller and passing it on to a new young family that’s ready to make it their very own!
When I say I am continually blessed with the very best clients, these special two were no exception!
Thank you and Congratulations! 🎉 ...

No, you do not!
BUT you might be glad you did...
A great agent will be your biggest advocate, negotiator, red flag caller, deadline manager & property sleuth-er! 🤝🚩🔎⏰

Keep the seller happy, secure the house AND see meaningful savings— YES PLEASE! ⬇️
Instead of going low on your offer...
✅ Offer full price with seller concessions to lower your rate
Then watch the savings add up...
Here’s an example:
- 🏠 List price = $550,000
- ❌ Instead of offering $535,000...
- ✅ Offer $550,000 with $15,000 in seller concessions
- 📉 That $15,000 = ~3 mortgage points, lowering your rate from 7.00% → ~6.25%
- 📉 Monthly payment drops from $3,657 → $3,471
💰 Savings = $2,232 per year and $66k+ over 30 years
Note – This calculation assumes 20% down payment. This strategy works best if you plan to stay in your home long term, since the interest savings stack over time.
DM me and I can run your numbers, head to Google and search “mortgage points calculator”, or better yet- I’ll connect you with one of my team’s preferred lenders to help! 👌🏽
