For many of us, the approaching winter season invites reflection and celebration. Shorter days naturally create breathing room in our social calendar and encourage us to take inventory of our past gratitudes, future hopes, and issues deferred. We look inward, but we also look around homes: 

 “I’m happy we finished the basement; Packer parties have been so much fun. How much value did we add to our home?” 

“I wonder what it would cost to build that third garage stall now that our son is driving.” 

“Would we feel safer if all the kids were sleeping on the same level as us?”

“Where will mom stay if she does end up moving in with us after all?” 

“The deck was chipping a lot this summer. How much will it cost to repaint it come spring?”  

Our homes reflect our lives in a unique way: they emphasize how the past year has affected our family’s growth, our aging, and our daily comforts. If you have questions on your mind about your home - or maybe even your next step in life - our team would love to be a resource to you with a “Home Check-up” this holiday season.

A “Home Check-up” is an informal meeting to address your property-related questions. We can connect you with trustworthy vendors for house projects in the new year, provide you with a personalized analysis of your home’s value, help make sense of this year’s tax bill, or anything else related to real estate. Reach out to start the conversation about what’s been weighing on your mind; whether it’s now or in 2024, we’d be excited to have you on our calendar.
