The real estate market moves fast, but the buying experience doesn't have to feel overwhelming. My top priority with every client is simple: listen deeply, anticipate the details, and guide you home with complete peace of mind.

I’m incredibly grateful for clients like Matt and Maya who trust me to advocate for their goals. Here’s what they recently shared about our work together:

💬 "Connor was, and still is, an incredible agent to have in your corner... From the very first conversation, he made what could have been an overwhelming and stressful experience feel effortless... What stood out most was how much he anticipated. He wasn’t just reactive to what we asked; he was proactive in a way that made us feel completely taken care of. Every recommendation he offered, every piece of guidance he gave, was rooted in genuine expertise and a real understanding of what we were looking for. Because of his patience, his attentiveness, and his steady presence through every step, we ended up finding and securing the perfect home, one that truly fits our life together." 🔑

Thank you, Matt and Maya! Honored to have played a part in your next chapter.

🏠 How old are your home’s major systems?

Whether you are buying a home or maintaining the one you own, knowing when key systems need attention will help you budget smartly and avoid unexpected surprises.

Here is what you can generally expect for major home components:

💧 Water Heater (Tank): 10–12 years (Tankless: 15–20 years)
🔥 Furnace: 15–20 years
❄️ Central AC Unit: 10–15 years
🪵 Architectural Shingle Roof: 20–30 years
⚡ Electrical Panel: 25–40 years
🚰 PEX/Copper Plumbing: 40–50+ years

💡 Pro Tip for Buyers: Just because a system is near the end of its typical lifespan doesn’t mean it needs immediate replacement if it’s been well-maintained! However, keeping these ages in mind helps when planning your home maintenance fund.

🏡 My clients found their new home and moved out, so they needed to sell quickly to avoid overlapping mortgage payments. We strategized to price their home competitively and received an offer during the first weekend of showings!

🔍 The tricky part was during the Inspection negotiations when some unforeseen findings popped up. We worked efficiently and effectively to correct a few issues while working on a few credits for the next buyers so they could move in on their expedited timeline.

🔑 The result = this testimonial!

Rent is expensive! What if you could buy a home and have someone else pay for the majority of it? 🏡 💰

“House-Hacking” is a powerful strategy for first-time home buyers. Buy a multi-family building ➡️ live in one unit➡️ Rent out the others!

Not only does this drastically lower your living expenses, but it also lets you break into the real estate investing world with low down payment options.

Want to see what house-hacking opportunities look like right now? DM me with your questions or comment “Hack” and let’s chat!
