Join me, Brian and Monica as we reminisce about their journey from renters to homeowners in 2024. We met at a home buyer class in February 2024 and they had keys to their own home in April!

You may find that you relate to their renting woes - never knowing when their landlord would change their mind, never painting their favorite colors, never knowing if their garden would have to be uprooted. Not anymore. Now with their home they can paint anything, repair anything, and plant anything!

If you related to their story and are curious to see if you may be ready to be a home owner this year, contact me below and let's find out together!
