Sometimes a change of scenery is closer than you think 🍂

From outdoor art in Raleigh to riverside trails in Durham and a tucked-away coffee spot in Chapel Hill, here are three ways to enjoy a fall day close to home.
It is the one-year birthday of the trolls at Dix Park, if you haven’t seen them yet- it really is a must-see!

And you don’t have to make a whole day of it. A couple of hours exploring somewhere different can be just as enjoyable.

Which one would you pick?

📍 Save this for a November weekend!

🎃 Trick or Treat… or an extra hour of sleep?

Halloween comes with a little bonus this year! 👻

After a night of costumes, candy, and spooky fun, we get to turn our clocks BACK one hour at 2 AM on Sunday, November 1st!

An extra hour of sleep after Halloween? Now THAT’S a treat! 🍬⏰

Of course, if you have little ones or pets who don’t understand daylight saving time, you might not get that extra hour! 😂

What’s your favorite part of Halloween: the costumes, the candy, or seeing all the neighborhood trick-or-treaters?

🍁 If you've ever driven along the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina this time of year, you know why it's such a popular fall destination.

But did you know it actually attracts more visitors than Yellowstone, Yosemite, or the Grand Canyon?

More than 16.5 million recreation visits were recorded along the Parkway in 2025!

Enjoy taking a scenic drive, stopping at the overlooks, or enjoying the fall colors, because it's one of those places that reminds you how beautiful North Carolina really is.

Have you made a trip to the mountains to see the leaves this fall? Only a 2–3 hour drive from the Triangle, you can do it as a day trip or make a weekend of it.

🏡 This seller trusted me in 2022 when she moved to NC, and when it was time to move again, I was honored to be the one she called. She even told me "When I decided to sell, I knew who to call."

Selling while preparing to move across the country can feel like a lot, because it is! My goal was to make the process as smooth, and stress-free as possible.

I’m so grateful for repeat clients and the trust they place in me, not just once, but every time they need a real estate professional.

WalletHub just released its Best College Towns & Cities in America study, and Raleigh ranked 4th in the nation!

Three Triangle communities earned impressive spots, along with Wilmington:

📍 Raleigh – 4th nationally
📍 Durham – 6th nationally
📍 Wilmington – 21st nationally
📍 Chapel Hill – 30th nationally

But there’s more to the story!

We were the only state with four ranking towns and when WalletHub compared cities of similar sizes, our North Carolina communities ranked even higher:

• Raleigh – 2nd among large cities
• Durham – 5th among midsize cities
• Wilmington – 4th among small cities
• Chapel Hill – 6th among small cities

The study compared 415 cities across 31 measures, including affordability, social environment, education, and economic opportunities. You can read the full report at wallethub.

Having worked in Triangle real estate for more than 25 years, I’ve seen how our universities contribute to so much more than education. NC State, Duke, UNC-Chapel Hill, and our other colleges bring people here to study, build careers, start businesses, and establish roots.

Some come for college and never leave. Others move away and eventually find their way back.

Our universities are a big part of what makes the Triangle such a desirable place to live, work, and call home.

Did you attend college in North Carolina? And if so, did you stay after graduation or return later?

What is always in my real estate agent tool kit? A 100 foot tape measure.

Today I was measuring the distance between the back of the house and an easement that my buyers will have to take into consideration if they end up wanting to install a fence.

Just because you own all of the backyard, doesn’t mean you can fence all of it in!

Here’s one easy thing that any buyer can do before making an offer.

Visit the neighborhood at different times of day.

A house can look perfect at 1 PM on a Tuesday. 🕒 But what does the street feel like at 7 AM…or 9 PM?

📍 7 AM: school buses, commuters, construction, and morning traffic

📍 5 PM: rush hour, school activities, deliveries, and people coming home

📍 9 PM: street parking, headlights, barking dogs, and evening activity

Same street. Three very different perspectives.

When you go back, don’t just drive through. Park the car for a few minutes. Roll down the windows. Look around. Listen.

You’re not only deciding whether you like the house. You’re deciding whether you like what it feels like to live there every day.

That can be especially important in the Triangle, where traffic patterns and the feel of a neighborhood can change considerably depending on the time of day.

Some of the best research you can do before making an offer iscompletely free.

🏡 First-time buyers can absolutely make a smart move in today’s market.

Congratulations to my buyers on their new home in Cary!

They were savvy first-time home buyers who took the time to understand the market, stayed focused on what mattered most, and ended up getting a great deal on a home in Cary, NC.

That’s one of the things I love about working with first-time buyers. With good information, patience, and the right strategy, there can still be real opportunities out there.

So happy for them as they start this next chapter in their new home. ❤️

Thinking about buying your first home in the Triangle? I’d be glad to help you understand the process and what opportunities may be available in the areas you’re considering.
