There’s something about the last weekend of the Fall Festival at Flat Top Mountain Farm that always sneaks up on me. One week you’re planning to go, and the next week it’s packed up for the year. 🍁

If you’ve been meaning to make it out, this is it. The flower fields are still at peak color, the pumpkin patch is fully stocked, the corn maze is themed around America’s 250th birthday, and the animals are out all weekend. 🇺🇸

After Sunday, the fall festival doesn’t come back until next October. 🥲

Here’s what you need to know before you go:
🎃 Final Weekend: Friday, Saturday, Sunday
⏰ Hours: 10 A.M. - 6  P.M. | 10 A.M. - 9 P.M. | 11 A.M. - 6 P.M.
📍 Where: Flat Top Mountain Farm · Hixson, TN
💛 Halloween Day Pricing: Kids 14 and under in costume get in FREE · Anyone 15+ in costume gets 50% off
🚜 Bring: A wagon for the pumpkins, cash for easiest use (credit cards are accepted), and a camera because the light out there is unreal right now

🔖Save this one and send it to whoever you’ve been meaning to bring.

If you’re reading this and you’ve been meaning to buy or sell for months but keep putting it off, this one is for you.

You’re not behind. You’re not making a mistake. You’re not alone in feeling frozen by a market that keeps rewriting the rules.📝

Most of the people we talk to right now are stuck in the same loop. They’re watching rates, watching prices, watching headlines, waiting for a sign that it’s safe to move. The sign isn’t coming. Not the one they’re waiting for.🕰️

But here’s the quiet truth — people in Chattanooga are still buying. People are still selling. Deals are still closing every week. The difference is the ones who are moving aren’t waiting for a perfect market. They’re working with a real one.

If you’ve been sitting with this for a while and don’t know what to do next, send us a message. We’ll walk through where you actually are and what your options actually look like.

No pressure. No pitch. Just honest answers. 🍀

Sometimes the hardest part of a move is admitting you’re ready to make one. Comment READY or DM us to start getting your questions answered!

Sometimes you walk out of a shelter with a dog. Sometimes you walk out with a reminder. 🍀

I went to McKamey last week to visit, not to adopt. But by the time I left, I couldn’t stop thinking about the shelter in San Antonio where I met my dog four years ago. He was never supposed to be mine. And now I can’t picture my life without him. 🥹

That’s what every one of these animals is to somebody. They just haven’t met them yet.

There are over 600 animals at McKamey on any given day. But, you don’t have to adopt an animal home to help.

Foster an animal till they find their forever home. Walk a dog on your lunch break. Drop off a bag of food, or even just a blanket. Sit with a cat for twenty minutes. Share a post. All of it adds up more than you’d think.

McKamey has been showing up for Chattanooga since 2008. The least we can do is show up back.
🐾 Visit — no appointment needed, just walk and sign in
🤝 Foster — short-term stays save lives
💛 Volunteer — walking, cuddling, event help
📦 Donate — food, blankets, supplies, or funds
🔁 Share — the next adopter is somewhere scrolling

If you have a personal pet adoption story, share it in the comments. Follow McKamey Animal Center to stay up to date on their events and animals at the center.

5842 Northshore was under contract in under two weeks, and is officially sold!🍀

The sellers trusted the process. They asked good questions. They didn’t take it personally when the number was different from what they hoped for. And that’s the part I want to talk about. 📍

Here’s what a lot of people don’t realize. Agents don’t set your list price. We pull the comps, run the ARV, and lay out where the market actually is. From there, it’s your call. But the sellers who really hear us out and price it based on today, not on what their neighbor sold for in 2022, are the ones getting to closing.💵

And I get it, letting go of that number is hard. You’ve lived in that house. You’ve put money into it. You know what it’s worth to YOU. But you’re not the one buying it. Somebody paying upwards of 7% interest is, and they’re doing math you’re not doing.

That’s not a bad thing. It just means the sellers who acknowledge have a better chance in this market. 🏡

If you’re thinking about listing and want to see what selling your home actually looks like, comment PRICING and we’ll pull it together for you.

Hey y'all — we have some fun news to share.

We are going to have a booth at the 4th Annual Halloween EEKstravaganza on Saturday, October 24 at Soddy Municipal Park. It runs from 2 to 7 PM, and if you've never been, this event is honestly one of the best things that happens in the area every October.

The KELCURT Foundation and the Soddy-Daisy Community Library put it on every year, and it just keeps getting bigger. This year they're expecting over 50 vendors, food trucks, live music, costume contests, candy, games — basically everything you'd want in a family Halloween afternoon packed into one park.

We're going to be set up out there with the rest of the community, and we would genuinely love it if you stopped by. We have some fun plans and can't wait to see all the costumes everyone shows up with. If you are looking to start your Halloween celebrations early, stop by!

For the latest updates on the event itself — vendor lineups, schedule changes, costume contest details — follow the official page: https://www.facebook.com/HalloweenEEKstravaganza/

Mark it on your calendar, tag a friend who needs to be there, and come find our booth on the 24th.

See y'all out there.
