"Know That God Can and God Will"
Mark 12:31 says "Love your neighbor as yourself." As a Realtor, I get to help my neighbors, clients, friends, and family sell their existing home and buy their next home.
But the COVID-19 pandemic and the changing housing market has put many people in danger of losing their home.
Millions of homeowners are several months behind on their mortgage payments and the foreclosure moratoriums will end at some point. Many homeowners may never be able to catch up.
With this in mind, I want you to remember that we offer the following services:
I'm asking for your help in providing assistance to our neighbors getting back on their feet.

This little beauty was on the market for 4 short days and received multiple offers. If you've been thinking about downsizing or moving up, now is the time to sell. And because of the low interest rates, now is also the time to buy!
Gray Stucco Ranch
My client hit the jackpot with this home. We looked high and low for a nice ranch home in the Grayson school district and, voila, we found it! Housing inventory is tight, but new houses come on the market each day. Call me to find your next dream home.

A new year marks the start of new dreams, new goals, new possbilities, and new beginnings. Although 2020 was tough on us individually and collectively, the year did have some bright spots.
One of those bright spots was a client named Shanae. I had the pleasure of working with Shanae to purchase her first home. Before the purchase was finalized, Shanae shared the following story with me.
My name is Shanae and I am a 32-year-old single mother of three. I wanted to tell my story to simply encourage someone else who might be on the fence of purchasing your first home.
I was raised by my father since the tender age of three. My father was a single parent due to my mother’s sudden death at the age of 22. The road has been trying but it makes this accomplishment so worth it.
You see, I am the first child ...first grandchild ...first cousin and first niece to become a homeowner in our family. This makes the testimony worth the test! I am about to change a generational cycle with the purchase of my first home in my family. Even with this, I must add that I had a lot of “no’s” before I had someone else believe in me and in my dreams to become a homeowner.
Sometimes that is all that you need is for someone else to listen and come on board with you to tell you, I am here with you. As I prepare for my goals of homeownership to become a reality. I am beyond grateful to bring this journey to my family’s history - Homeownership 2020!
I mentioned earlier that, yes, the road has been trying. I have had to sacrifice, work hard, and compromise so much. But my resilience and drive to succeed made that call to Mrs. Janetta the greatest in a lifetime.
The going may get tough, but I never stopped going with my faith in God and my will to succeed. Here I am, more than a conqueror and the first to become a homeowner in my family. I give all praises to God!
My message to anyone and everyone is “Don't give up, don't quit, and never lose faith in God or yourself!" The tears that I cry today are from pure joy! All my hard work has finally paid off! I will soon be a homeowner!
Ms. Shanae
Shanae closed on her home in September 2020, becoming the first homeowner in her family. What a great testimony and a great way to start the new year!

Quote of the Month
Many things will be said about the year 2020 when the history books are written. The one word that I would use to describe the year is "grateful."
I am grateful that most of my family, friends, and clients were not touched by COVID-19. For those that the disease did touch, I am grateful that they had mild cases and recovered quickly.
I am grateful that the Lord continues to give me a measure of health and strength.
I am grateful for my supportive husband, my beautiful children, my fantastic daughter-in-law and son-in-law, and my wonderful grandchildren.
I am grateful for the best siblings anyone could ask for.
I am grateful for truly loving pastors and church family.
Finally, I am grateful and humbled by clients and colleagues who continue to support my business and refer your friends. I do not take your support lightly.
I wish each and every one of you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Perseverance Pays Off
Some home sales are easy and some require a little more time and effort. This home took a little longer to sell since we had to work with the seller's lender to accept less than what was owed on the home (called a short sale).
There were many bumps in the road and, at times, it looked like the home would not sell. But the seller, the buyer, and my team did not give up.
In the end, the seller was able to avoid foreclosure, the mortgages were paid off, and the buyer purchased a house to turn into their dream home. Closing day was a celebration for all involved!

Dreams Do Come True
It was a pleasure to be a part of helping Michael reach his dream. This 24-year old firefighter purchased three acres of land to build his dream home. The land had been sitting vacant for years, but Michael has great vision and he could see that it was perfect for his new home.
I am so happy for this young man! I would also like to add a special thank you to Michael for being on the front lines as a first responder and serving the community as a firefighter. Your work is not in vein!
(Yes, real estate is still alive and well during COVID-19. I don't leave home without a mask!)

Thanksgiving to me has always been a day filled with laughter, family, good food, and great memories. Thanksgiving is also a word that describes how we should feel every day because every day is a gift from God. What does Thanksgiving mean to you and how is it different this year in comparison to past years?
I thought about what acronym would I use for the word that would be fitting given the economy and the given what many people might be feeling today. It is always my nature to try to find a way to bring light to darkness and to encourage whenever I have an opportunity.
Not everyone is in the same place. Some people are suffering and yet some people have not felt any despair with COVID-19, the loss of jobs and or even the loss of lives. But I would venture to believe that in some way, somehow, we have all been affected by this new normal. It is my prayer that we all can reflect on the goodness that the Lord continues to send our way day in and day out.
Yes, these are new experiences for us all but they are also opportunities for us to be ever so thankful because we are still able to live, breathe and have our being. Acts 17:28. His grace is sufficient for you, for my power is perfected in weakness. 2 Corinthians 12:9

Buyer Client Spotlight
Congratulations Shanae! I cannot begin to applaud this first-time homebuyer enough for overcoming the challenges she faced to finally receive the keys to her new home on closing day. Her story is one of the reasons that I remain so passionate about selling real estate today. She remained vigilant and stayed the course to become a new homeowner. Shanae also used a new down payment assistance program for first-time homebuyers in the medical field to help with her purchase. You go girl!!!
