🇺🇸 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐌𝐔𝐍𝐈𝐓𝐘. 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐕𝐎𝐈𝐂𝐄. 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐕𝐎𝐓𝐄. 🇺🇸

Early voting is here! 🗳️

I want to take a minute to remind everyone just how important it is to get out and vote, especially in our local elections!

We spend so much time talking about what we love about our communities, what we wish would change, and what we would like to see happen in the future. Well, voting is one of the ways we get to have a say in those things!

As a Realtor®, I don't just sell homes in our community. I live here, I work here, and I care about what happens here. ❤️

Our local elections deserve just as much attention as the big national elections. The decisions made at the local level can affect our neighborhoods, our schools, our roads, our businesses, and the future of the place we call home.

You don't have to agree with your neighbor. You don't have to vote the way your friends or family vote. But you SHOULD take the time to educate yourself, learn about the candidates and the issues, and make your own informed decisions.

At the end of the day, we all want a community we are proud to call home.

So, do your homework, ask questions, and make your voice heard!

Sorting through all of my emails from the past week. I feel like I need a nap and I just started. 🤣

Well, I guess it’s official… I am NABOR’s President-Elect! 💙

My role on the board is changing, but my goal of seeing NABOR grow stronger and better each year has not. So, it’s time to prepare for 2027 and start looking ahead to 2028!

And that starts with hearing from YOU.

What are some of your ideas for NABOR? What would you like to see in the upcoming year? What’s working, and where do we have room to grow? Most importantly, what can WE do to help YOU?

I don’t want us guessing what our members need. I want us having those conversations and working together to make it happen.

Feel free to comment here, send me a private message, or better yet, let’s have coffee and a conversation. You bring the ideas, and I’ll buy the coffee. ☕️

I’m all ears!

I know in the thick of this hurricane aftermath, it may be easy to think, “I’m done. It’s time to sell and move.” Trust me, I get it. These past few days have been A LOT.

But take your time. Give yourself a little grace. We are tired, overwhelmed, and still trying to figure all of this out. Try not to make a permanent decision based on how you are feeling in the middle of the mess.

People will come around with offers and promises. Some may sound like the answer to all of your problems. If it sounds too good to be true, take a step back. Listen to your gut, and please don’t feel like you have to make a decision right then and there.

Talk to a real estate professional you trust. Let us help you navigate this and understand your options. The goal is to help you make the RIGHT decision for you and your family, whatever that looks like.

We can also help connect you with resources for repairs, trusted contractors, someone to answer your insurance questions, or whatever else you may need. You may not even know where to start, and that is OK. Start by reaching out.

I don’t have all of the answers, but I will tell you what I know and help you find the answers to what I don’t know. And if you just need a good venting session, we may have one together. LOL.

Reach out. Don’t hesitate. You do not have to do this alone. ❤️

❤️ 𝐓𝐨 𝐦𝐲 𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬, 𝐧𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲…

I know these past few days have been tough. Trust me, I am right there in the middle of the confusion with you! Navigating insurance claims, finding contractors, cleaning up, trying to figure out what to do next, and just feeling stinky, sweaty, and exhausted is A LOT for any one person to handle.

First things first… 𝐖𝐄 𝐇𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐏𝐎𝐖𝐄𝐑! 🙌 So, if you need a nice, HOT shower, please reach out! Seriously. My door is open. And let me tell you, after a few days without hot water, I have a whole new appreciation for a good shower! 😂

Secondly, if you are feeling overwhelmed with insurance claims, trying to find a trustworthy contractor or roofer, figuring out what needs to happen next, or just need some help cleaning up, 𝑷𝑳𝑬𝑨𝑺𝑬 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒄𝒉 𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝒎𝒆.

I absolutely do NOT have all the answers. Heck, I'm still trying to figure some of this out myself! LOL. But I promise you this: I will share what I have learned, help you find the answers to what I don't know, and do whatever I can to point you in the right direction.

And if you just need someone to vent to, call me! We may just end up having a good old-fashioned venting session together! 😂

But there is something else I really want to say…

I think so many of us are still in survival mode. We are in that "get things done" mode. We are making phone calls, cleaning up debris, dealing with damage, taking care of our families, and just trying to find a little bit of normalcy again.

But eventually, things will slow down. And when they do, all of those emotions that we haven't had time to process may come rushing to the surface.

𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐬, 𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞, 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐞𝐥𝐬𝐞. ❤️

It's okay to feel overwhelmed. It's okay to be frustrated. It's okay to have a good cry. And it's okay to ask for help.

One thing these past few days have reminded me of is just how incredible our community really is. I have seen people showing up for one another in ways that truly warm my heart.

So please, whether you are a friend, a neighbor, a client, or someone I've never even met, know this:

𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐞, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨 𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐧𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐞.

I am here. Even if all I can offer is a hot shower, a listening ear, a little guidance, or a good laugh when we desperately need one. ❤️

We will get through this, one day, one phone call, and one pile of hurricane debris at a time!
