First Time Home Buyers

This week I want to highlight an important group in the real estate market-First time Home Buyers. There are a lot of overwhelming things about buying your first home, and it's important to get as much information as possible to this group to make their experience a positive one. But who are these people? This video takes a look at the changing demographic of first time home buyers

New Blog-I Heart Historic!


I am so excited to announce a new project I am launching today, the first of November! I HEART HISTORIC is a guide to living and loving Historic Districts. What is a historic district you ask?

A historic district in the United States is a group of buildings, properties or sites that have been designated by one of several entities on different levels as historically or architecturally significant. Buildings, structures, objects and sites within a historic district are normally divided into two categories, contributing and non-contributing. Districts greatly vary in size: some have hundreds of structures, while others have just a few.

My love for Historic Distrcits started when I was growing up visting Clarkdale & Jerome Arizona. The history and magic of those places always fascinated me and I really started appreciating the design of older homes. Once I became a real estate agent I knew I had to find a niche in the market that interested me, so my obvious choice was Historical Homes and Districts. They are all so unique and beautiful in their own way, and I know I would love working with people that held the same appreciation of vintage architecture as I.

Please join me at I Heart Historic for homes for sale, maps of areas, the history and periods of significance of the district, and resources for living in the area.
