So What Are YOU Having For Dinner?

September 23, 2016 by Laura Kubicki Leave a Comment

Freezer Dinner Party with Wild Tree!

So friends!  Here are some questions for you!

Do you ever stress out trying to come up with what’s for dinner every day?  Sick of eating out?

Are there nights when extra curricular activities, work demands, or sudden out of town company derails  your dinner designing?

Are you looking to eat “healthier”?  Or maybe you’d like to get your kids to try something new, outside their world of chicken nuggets and pizza?

Maybe you’re a five o’clock “hmm, what are we going to do about dinner tonight” panic person?  Or the opposite – a huge OCD Meal Planner (guilty)…who would just love to conveniently sprinkle in already prepped, healthy, and ready to make in a flash meals to turn to on your busiest of days…

Then…you SIMPLY MUST TRY THIS!  Go to or host a Wildtree Freezer Meal Party (not an affiliate).  So. Much. Fun!!!!!!

Wild Tree Products

I’ve been to them, and I just hosted one last weekend (with my adorable friend Sarah), and it is just such a great experience every time!

Here’s what you do.

Step 1.  Normal grocery shopping – convenient list provided by Wildtree!

Step 2.  Prep your proteins the day before the party into ten freezer resealable bags.

Step 3.  Attend/host party with your friends, sip refreshing drinks, chit chat, and nosh away on delicious Wildtree provided apps (thank you Sarah), while you finish adding the low sodium, organic, Wildtree Seasonings and Sauces to your prepped bags.

“Squish” or shake said ingredients together inside bags, add labels provided by Wildtree with simple cooking instructions, and take home to your freezer to be thawed and quickly cooked up later.

See for yourself…

Of course this freezer meal concept can be just expanded to all sorts of things so…just go for it!

And remember…you can refrigerate or freeze any cooked leftovers for yet another lunch or dinner another day!  Smiles…all smiles!

And the price?  Only about $4-$5 per person (cheaper than going out)!

Each meal serves about six.  And if there’s only two of you – yep – you guys get 20 dinners out of the 10…wow.

Fall Is In The Air!

September 1, 2016 by Laura Kubicki Leave a Comment

Our House

STILL A GREAT TIME TO SELL – OR TO BUY!

Here’s why.

FALL LAURA

In the Triad, home inventories remain historically low – down 25% from this time last year! That means, if you’re wanting to put your home up for sale, buyers out there would love the chance to see it (perhaps jazzed up a bit with some fun fall decor?) and make an offer!

And for folks looking to buy, there’s good news for you too – interest rates are still low! Not to mention cooler temperatures and fall’s beautiful color are heading our way, making it such an enjoyable time of year to look for your new home.

So if you’re ready to go, so am I!  Give me a call or text at 336-413-9197 or click here to get started.

And if not…please keep me in mind for any friends or family who may be “on the move”!  I’d love to help them too!

Thank you!

My Advice to Sellers: Don’t Overprice Your Home

August 27, 2016 by Laura Kubicki Leave a Comment

Selling Your Home

Hi there!  Here’s another tip for you when you’re thinking of selling your house…

One of the most well-known real estate mantras your real estate professional should tell you is this: “If you overprice your home, it will take longer to sell and it will sell for less money.” Yet, many sellers continue to believe their homes can defy market physics.  I understand.  You have a lot of great memories and have put a lot into your home and you want it paid back.

But the real truth is, if you really want to sell, overpricing seldom works because buyers search for homes online according to their loan qualifications. If their ceiling is $500,000, they’re not going to search for more expensive homes (in this case over $500,000), and if your home is priced at $505,000, it won’t be found by the buyers who are most qualified to buy it. And remember, when buyers can afford more, they’ll compare your home to other homes in the same price range and your home may fall short in features, location or condition.

Also, remember search price increments vary depending on scale. Buyers use $10,000 increments for $100,000 homes and $100,000 increments for million-dollar homes. Pricing just over a logical range end point like $255,000 or $505,000 will exclude that home from some search results. If you price just under a range end point, like $498,000, your home will be seen by the buyers who are most likely and able to buy your home.

And, while some buyers’ search in higher price ranges than their rounded end point, their intention is to offer less, so that makes setting a higher price for your home counterproductive.  And buyers like to feel they’re getting a ‘deal’, so pricing it a little lower, could help generate the attention of multiple buyers and get the price bid up.

Laura Fall

Your best chance of selling your home quickly for the highest price possible is to attract buyers who see your home as well priced. You’ll attract more serious buyers who make higher offers with fewer negotiations. And that my friends is what all sellers really want!
