Spring is here!
The Spring Real Estate Market is thriving, and we are seeing a significant increase in demand for homes in Voorhees, especially from millennials.
In fact, the current absorption rate in our area is only 3 months, which means that if no more homes come on the market, we will only be able to sustain the current demand for up to 3 months.
This is great news for anyone considering selling their home, as the high demand can lead to a boost in your bottom line.
If you are thinking about selling your home, now is the perfect time to do so. To get started, it's essential to focus on your curb appeal, which can significantly impact the value of your property. That's why we've put together a helpful checklist to help you get started.
Friendly reminder: Before you make a repair, be sure to check with a real estate agent to make sure it is worth your return on investment. Feel free to Book A Call with me if you have any questions or want a free consultation!

What Sellers Worry About (And How I Solve It)
Common Seller Concerns
• “What if my house doesn’t sell?”
• “What if I sell before I find my next home?”
• “Will buyers try to nickel-and-dime me?”
• “What about repairs?”
My Solutions
• Strategic pricing and strong marketing
• Contingencies to protect your timeline
• Negotiation strategies that keep your net high
• Contractor referrals for quick, quality repairs
Story from the Field
I once had a Germantown seller worried about selling before finding their next home. We secured a contract with a lease-back period, allowing them to stay for 45 days after closing—stress solved.
Bottom Line: Every seller has fears. My job is to turn them into action plans.
