The pursuit and desire to achieve the American Dream is still alive and well!
As most of us know, springtime is homebuying and selling time as folks gear up for what promises to be an active market despite our inventory shortages which is really a challenge and, of course, the changes brought about from the recently passed tax plan.
According to the National Association of Realtors, pending home sales were up slightly for the third consecutive month and noted a momentum which they predict price growth to only be moderate this year.
With Spring, comes Spring Cleaning so if you have buyers looking to sell a home – have them get rid of clutter, open the window coverings and let that warm sunlight in, and remind them to play some music while they work away on getting their home ready to sell.
And….just for FUN, Ultra Violet is the Pantone 2018 Color of the Year! But, if purple isn’t your fave, adding one vibrant piece of purple to change a room can really make a BIG impression without being overwhelming. Adding hues of purple to the interior decor such as towels or rugs can really make a room come to life! I went online and found a purple toaster, purple rugs, and even found these Ginsu knives for the kitchen countertop! Have some fun, but remember to keep it simple.
