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!

This criteria, or contingencies, typically fall under four major categories: appraisal, loan approval, inspections and reports & disclosures

"Now we're in contract prior to contingencies being removed. Now we're in business."
The buyer now will secure their loan, have their inspections on the property, and review all of the reports and disclosures

"Our first ever home sale. JAMIE and her team made the experience so smooth. From our first meeting to the last it was all about us and how they made it an enjoyable experience. They were all unbelievably attentive and responsive to our needs.
"My father in law passed and we needed to sell his house. We met with three different agents and we quickly decided to go with Jamie. Jamie and her team are very knowledgeable, energetic and at the top of their game. Everything was spot on."
"Jamie and her team were excellent. We bought a home while on vacation. We relied on her staff to not only view the house but she positioned us so well, that we followed her advice and we got the house for the price we wanted. Thank you!
