If you’ve been out touring homes recently, you’ve likely noticed a shift in how we get started. For some, being asked to sign a Written Buyer Agreement before seeing a single property can feel like a "big step."

Once again, I find myself turning back to the Cape Gazette’s Spring Home & Garden Guide for outstanding ways to update and increase the value of our homes.

There is a brief, magical window in Sussex County right around late March.
