Don’t take our word for it. See what my clients have to say ...
Deanna did a great job selling our house. She was helpful in helping me work through every step of the selling process. We completed some of the business remotely, so I didn’t need to take off work a lot to make things happen. Working with Deanna was a very positive experience.
‑ Taylor W.
Deanna did a wonderful job. She answered every question that we had with accuracy and quickness. Very organized so everything that we had to do as buyers was quick and easy. We HIGHLY recommend Deanna with all of your buying needs.
‑ Ferris N.
Deanna was exactly the person we needed to find our dream home, we highly recommend her for all real estate needs. Not only was she highly educated in the field and able to give amazing advice; she was compassionate, flexible with our schedule, and sincerely looking out for our best interest. Sometimes selling a house and buying a new one can be stressful, but this team managed to make it fun and memorable.

Happy National Dessert Day! 🍪🍰🍫
And I’m just going to say it…
Dessert > coffee. Every. Single. Time.
I don’t even drink coffee, so I feel pretty confident in this opinion. 😉
Give me a warm cookie, a piece of pie, a brownie with ice cream… I could keep going.
So today I need to know:
What dessert are you choosing today if calories don’t count?
And please don’t say “none.” I don’t trust people who don’t like dessert. 😂

What Michigan Neighborhood checks all seven boxes for you?

This week has been WILD… and such a blessing. 🤍
Five homes under contract. Five completely different stories.
Different locations. Different goals. Different needs. Different reasons for moving. And five people/families who trusted me to help them through a pretty big life decision.
That’s the part I love most about real estate -- I’m not just helping people buy and sell houses. I’m helping people navigate some of the biggest financial decisions of their lives.
And whether I have 1 client or 10 clients, my commitment stays the same:
When you’re my client, you’re a priority.
I will answer your questions. I will keep you updated. I will advocate for you. And I will make sure you never feel like you’re “just another transaction.”
Looking ahead… a few home inspections, a couple of appraisals, and 5 incredible closings! 🥂
Feeling incredibly grateful for the people who trust me with their homes, and for every referral that continues to put my name in someone else’s corner. 🤍
And P.S. if you’ve been feeling anxious about the real estate market…
It’s not dead. 😉
People are still buying. People are still selling. Life is still happening, and real estate decisions are still being made every single day.
If you or someone you know needs a Realtor who will actually be there for them from start to finish, I’m never too busy to have a conversation. 🏡

Random homebuyer fact that surprises a LOT of people:
Your first mortgage payment usually isn’t due the month after you close.
Mortgage payments are typically paid in arrears, so depending on when you close, you may have a little bit of time before that first payment comes due.
BUT (and this is important) don’t mistake this for getting a “free month” of housing. Your closing costs and prepaid interest/escrow are calculated as part of your closing, and your exact first payment date depends on your loan and closing date.
Just one of those little things I like to explain to my buyers BEFORE they get to the closing table. 🏡

If peace looks like 10 acres of woods, rolling hills, wildlife, and not a neighbor in sight… you might want to see this one.
🌲 10 wooded acres in Attica
🏡 3 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms
🚗 2-car detached garage + additional shed
🔥 A setting that would make an incredible cabin, weekend retreat, or private place to call home
There’s something pretty special about having room to breathe, explore, and truly get away from it all—without being hours from everything.
📍3816 Adams Drive, Attica, MI
✨ Brand new to the market
If your version of “home” includes a little more quiet, a lot more trees, and 10 acres to make your own… this one is worth a look.

I think sometimes people get so caught up waiting for the “perfect” time to buy that they forget there is no perfect market.
Buying a home is a big decision, and it should make sense for your situation. But if homeownership is something you want, it’s worth having a conversation about what that could look like for you—because renting means paying for housing, while owning can give you the opportunity to build equity over time.
And if you’re not sure where you stand yet, that’s okay too. That’s what I’m here for. 🏡

A $299,999 ranch in Midland that already has the big stuff DONE. 👀

Fresh paint? DONE. ✅
And honestly, I love finding homes like this — especially when a job relocation means a well-loved home is coming on the market.

One of the things I love sending to my friends, family, and past clients is their Home Value Report. 🏡
I send these out quarterly, and I’ve had so many people tell me they actually look forward to getting them because it helps them understand what’s happening with their home and the market around them.
It’s not just about what your house could sell for. People use the report to keep an eye on their equity, consider whether refinancing might make sense, get an idea of potential rental income, or simply stay informed about one of their biggest investments.
If you’d like to start getting one too, send me a DM with your email and address and I’ll get you set up!
It’s something I’m happy to provide - whether you’re planning to move or not. ❤️
