Did you know Beggars’ Night is a Des Moines original? 🎃 Back in 1938, the city moved trick-or-treating to a separate night to cut down on the Halloween pranks and mischief that had gotten out of hand. Nearly 90 years later, the metro still does it our own way!

And don’t forget the most important rule: in central Iowa, you have to earn your candy. Kiddos, have your best joke ready before you hold out that bucket! 😂

Need one? Here’s a little something from your favorite real estate pro:
Why don’t skeletons ever buy houses? 💀
They don’t have the guts to make an offer! 🏡

👇 Check the schedule to see when your town is trick-or-treating. 👻

Buying a home for the first time can feel overwhelming, but the process is more structured than it may seem. 🏡🔑

Here’s a simplified roadmap:

1️⃣ Get pre-approved: Understand your budget and financing options before you start seriously searching.
2️⃣ Search strategically: Focus on the location, features, and lifestyle priorities that matter most to you.
3️⃣ Make an informed offer: Consider the home’s value, local market conditions, financing, contingencies, and other terms, not just the asking price.
4️⃣ Review the home and paperwork: Complete a home inspection where applicable, review disclosures and important documents, confirm financing and insurance requirements, and address any conditions before moving forward.
5️⃣ Close on the home: Complete your final walkthrough, sign the necessary documents, and receive the keys once the transaction is officially closed.

Every purchase is different, and having the right guidance is crucial.

Ready to take the first step toward homeownership? Let's connect and build a plan for your purchase from start to finish!

🍂 These 4 homes won’t last through fall — BOOK your showing THIS WEEK! 🍂

The leaves are falling fast, and so is local inventory. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to make your move, this is it. Buyers who start now can be unpacked and hosting Thanksgiving in a home of their own. Buyers who wait until after the holidays will be fighting over what’s left.

Out house hunting this weekend? Here are four active listings I’d get in to see before someone else does:

🏡 127 Rockbridge Circle, Rhodes – $750,000
Stunning brick ranch with curb appeal for days, located at Harvester Golf Course

🏡 518 27th St SE, Altoona – $360,000
Two-story with over 2,200 sq ft of living space and a beautifully landscaped yard

🏡 709 D Ave, Scranton – $224,900
Sprawling 8.47 acres, room to breathe, and small-town charm

🏡 3901 Bowdoin St, Des Moines – $209,900
Move-in-ready Des Moines ranch at a price that’s hard to beat

🔨 Dreaming of building instead? I have amazing lots available so you can design the home you’ve always wanted. Let’s talk about finding the perfect spot!

Four communities, four price points, and every one of them is ready for you to walk through right now. But showing calendars fill up quickly this time of year, and the best homes often go under contract after just a weekend on the market.

⏰ Don’t wait until it says “Pending.” The time is NOW!
