| The real estate market has been a little unpredictable this year. Homes are taking longer to sell, price reductions have become more common, and both buyers and sellers have had to adjust expectations along the way.
But as summer winds down, August has brought a noticeable pickup in activity. It’s a good reminder that real estate rarely follows a perfect timeline. The right time to make a move—or the right home to make it for—can show up when you least expect it.
If you’ve been thinking about buying or selling, I’m always happy to talk through what I’m seeing and what it could mean for you. Sometimes the best first step is simply knowing your options. See below for a market update, some home improvement ideas, our featured homes (including 10689 Shadow Pines Road pictured above) and more.
I love sharing local businesses, people and resources I love around town. This month is our friend Morghan and her incredibly fun business, My Balloon Heaven. Keep scrolling to meet her!

"Molly was genuine, strategic, and our best cheerleader in finding the perfect home for us to settle down. Countless showings for last minute availability and incredible response times never left me waiting for her to reach out.
She has a real calm about her that makes you feel like everything is handled and you can just relax and not second guess yourself. She was never pushy and really started to anticipate our needs quite quickly.
This is our 4th home purchase in the US and she has been our favorite person representing our family’s interests in a new home. Thank you!"
