Realtors…do feel like you’ve been pulled back this year?

That’s exactly what a slingshot does right before it launches forward.

We all hit those seasons that feel like setbacks. Whether it’s a shifting market or a slower month. But what if that tension you’re feeling isn’t failure? What if it’s just resistance building momentum?

The most successful brokers I know don’t panic during the pullback. They use this time to refine, reflect, and get laser-focused. Because when the market shifts again (and it always does), the agents who have been quietly preparing are the ones who are going to launch the farthest. 🚀

If this is your pullback season, don’t panic…prepare. The launch is coming.

📌 Save this post for the days you need the reminder. ...

Pricing your home well from the start truly makes all the difference. ✨

I often see great homes sit on the market longer than they need to, simply because the price creates hesitation for buyers. The right pricing strategy builds confidence and momentum from day one.

If you’re thinking about selling, trust your agent to use real data and current market conditions to guide your list price. It’s one of the best ways to stand out and set yourself up for a strong sale.

Our Christmas breakfast ornament exchange game is one of my favorite traditions. 🎄

Roll the dice → unwrap → swap → slide left → slide right → try not to get too attached. 😂

Here’s what everyone ended up with this year. Which one would’ve been your pick? ...

Your home hasn’t sold?

It’s usually not about bad luck, it’s about strategy.

A few small shifts in how it’s priced, presented, or positioned can completely change the outcome.

If you`re thinking of selling in 2026, send me a DM and let`s get the conversation started.

November camera roll… proof it all actually happened.

Mexico for @katielovesloans 50th birthday celebration, Thanksgiving with the Browns in Vegas, and Zion hikes to close out the month. Grateful for time with friends and family, and friends that feel like family. 💚

Somehow we blinked and went from fall leaves to holiday lights, but I’m not mad about it. I’ve been loving the slower evenings, the cozy routines, and all the festive things popping up around town. ✨

What are you most looking forward to this month? Have you had your first peppermint-something yet ...
