Ready to sell? After you’ve contacted your favorite Peggy Slappey Properties REALTOR®, it’s time to get your hands dirty as you make your home spotless. Spring is a time of renewal, and it's no secret that clean homes sell more quickly for a better price. Here’s your cleaning checklist for the busy spring market:
Sparkle Sells
Windows and mirrors should sparkle – it’s free! All it takes is time and muscle to get your windows glittering, letting in more light and reflecting the light inside, which both make your home feel bigger and brighter.
Window Coverings
Clean drapes, curtains, and blinds. They are often overlooked, but they collect dust like anything else. Drapes and curtains should be laundered or sent to the dry cleaner. Blinds can
It’s that time of year again, when we all do our best to predict the ups and downs of the real estate market for the year ahead. While we can’t know for certain what the future holds, there are a few educated guesses we can make, and all of them encourage you to Buy Now.
Interest Rates
Mortgage interest rates are slowly creeping up, and financial experts expect them to continue to rise over the course of 2018. Right now, rates continue to hover near historic lows. That means it is an optimal time to buy. Lower interest rates on a 30-year fixed rate mortgage will save you money now and in the future, as you watch your neighbors pay more for the same loan product.
Low Inventory
Metro Atlanta builders are trying to keep up with demand, but

The Peggy Slappey Properties website (www.psponline.com) is loaded with tools to help you sell your home for top dollar. Maybe the most important tool at your fingertips is the CMA, or Comparative Market Analysis, performed by a qualified PSP REALTOR® and just a few clicks away.
The real estate market is constantly changing, so getting an expert opinion of what your home is worth has never been more important. Year to year, sometimes even month to month, home values in your neighborhood can change.
A CMA determines your home’s selling price by comparing it with similar homes recently sold in your area – preferably within the last 2-3 months. It includes factors like the number of bedrooms and bathrooms,
It’s officially fall in Metro Atlanta! Temperatures are still warm enough for us to think of summer vacation, but the shelves are stocked with everything pumpkin spice. Take advantage of our extended summer and clean up your curb appeal for a timely fall listing. Fall is a great time to sell, since there are less homes on the market, which means less competition. But it’s important for your curb appeal to keep up with the seasons. Here is our checklist for making your home’s first impression a good one this fall:
___ Autumn colors are beautiful, but not on your lawn. Keep your grass free from leaves and other debris that gathers this time of year by raking and bagging regularly.
___ Spiders and other creepy-crawlies move their homes closer to
Are you thinking of selling your home but worry that your kids could ruin the process before it even starts? It’s summer, so the kids are home more often, and they like to leave their mark. Cheerios under the couch, giant toy boxes in the living room, and messy kids’ bedrooms can indeed be turn-offs to buyers, so here are a few tips to help parents sell quickly without all the stress:
Invite Kids to Help De-Clutter
Cleaning up and packing the clutter is the first step in any plan to sell a home, but with kids involved, it gets a little tricky. A great way to avoid the tantrums caused by packing their favorite stuffed friends is to let them choose what stays and what gets packed and put into storage. Explain that their things are not

Just one week ago, Peggy Slappey Properties visited Mountain View High School in Lawrenceville to provide lunch to the teachers and staff on the final day of school. We handed out a few prizes and celebrated the end of another successful school year with these amazing people who prepare our kids for so much of what the future might hold.
Everyone has a story or two about teachers who impacted their lives. It was our privilege to pay it forward by bringing lunch and a few laughs to these teachers and administrators who work so hard each and every school day. We hope the summer months bring rest and relaxation to them all.
We know there are several teachers and families looking to move into the Mountain View High School District, which is
