May 2022
Hi!
May is a very busy month for both real estate and life's celebrations. To all mothers, I wish you a Mother's Day filled with joy. To all graduating seniors, I wish you the courage to live your life to the fullest. And finally, for all of our fallen heroes and their families on Memorial Day, thank you for your service and sacrifice. Celebrations have been scarce the last couple of years so I'm very happy to share this list: Celebrating Memorial Day in Atlanta.
This month's articles of interest include:
- Real Estate Advice from the Experts for those interested in buying or selling.
- Exterior Home Maintenance: Decks, spring cleaning, washing windows, and pressure washing.
- Bathroom Ideas, Trends & Zen: 2022 trends and ideas, showers, tile, flooring, and cabinets.
- Mother's Day, Music and Movement: Music and art festivals, biking trails, new restaurants, and Mother's Day reservations.
Please reach out to me if you have any questions about the market or your spring home projects. I also have a great list of resources if you are not the DIY type!
Enjoy the month of May -
