Staying informed about your home this Year

 

As we start 2026, homeowners may have questions about their home, the local market, and what changes, if any, might make sense down the road. Even if moving isn’t on your radar, your home is still one of your biggest assets, and staying informed can help you make better decisions over time. That’s why we offer a service called Homeowner Advisory. Homeowner Advisory is a complimentary, no-pressure resource designed to help homeowners get answers, clarity, and guidance about their home and the real estate market, whether plans involve moving soon, years from now, or not at all. It’s meant to be a place you can turn when questions come up, without feeling like you’re starting a sales conversation. Use the Homeowner Advisory to talk through things like: Your home’s current value and how it has changed Local market conditions and trends Which improvements typically offer the best return Property taxes or assessment questions Maintenance planning or finding reliable service providers Refinancing, equity, or long-term financial considerations Rental properties, second homes, or future lifestyle ideas Every Advisory includes a basic overview of your home’s current value so the conversation is grounded in real information, not guesswork. From there, the discussion follows what you want to understand or explore. Just as important is what Homeowner Advisory isn’t. It’s not a listing presentation.  It’s not a sales pitch.  And, it’s not tied to timing or obligation. There’s no expectation to buy or sell, and no pressure to make decisions. The goal is simply to help you stay informed and confident about your home and the market around it. My role is to be a source of real estate information for you, not just when you’re buying or selling, but all the years in between. Questions don’t only come up at transaction time, and you shouldn’t have to wait until then to get reliable answers. I’ll share more details about Homeowner Advisory later this year for anyone who would like to take advantage of it. For now, just know that it’s available as a resource whenever questions arise. Staying informed today often makes tomorrow’s decisions easier and I’m always here to help with that.  Give me a call at (612) 386-7027 and we’ll arrange a meeting.
