Spring is here!
The Spring Real Estate Market is thriving, and we are seeing a significant increase in demand for homes in Voorhees, especially from millennials.
In fact, the current absorption rate in our area is only 3 months, which means that if no more homes come on the market, we will only be able to sustain the current demand for up to 3 months.
This is great news for anyone considering selling their home, as the high demand can lead to a boost in your bottom line.
If you are thinking about selling your home, now is the perfect time to do so. To get started, it's essential to focus on your curb appeal, which can significantly impact the value of your property. That's why we've put together a helpful checklist to help you get started.
Friendly reminder: Before you make a repair, be sure to check with a real estate agent to make sure it is worth your return on investment. Feel free to Book A Call with me if you have any questions or want a free consultation!

This criteria, or contingencies, typically fall under four major categories: appraisal, loan approval, inspections and reports & disclosures

"Now we're in contract prior to contingencies being removed. Now we're in business."
The buyer now will secure their loan, have their inspections on the property, and review all of the reports and disclosures

Hi, I’m Marysol Calvillo, a proud Houston native with a passion for helping people achieve their homeownership dreams. I graduated from the University of Houston-Downtown and began my career in sales as an insurance agent more than 20 years ago.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT THE MARYSOL-D IT METHOD
Marysol is such a gem! We've been in a real estate group together, and I’ve had the chance to see just how smart, committed, and genuine she is—not just as an agent, but as a person. She truly cares about the people she serves and goes above and beyond to make sure her clients feel supported every step of the way. If you're buying or selling in the Houston area, you want someone like Marysol on your side. She’s got the knowledge, the experience, and the heart to get the job done—and to make it a great experience along the way. I’d trust her with my own family. Highly recommend!

I have had the opportunity to get to know Marysol through a real estate mastermind marketing group. She is fun and very knowledgeable about both helping her clients to buy and sell real estate and also the digital marketing that is such an important part of selling a house. I highly recommend her for your real estate needs in the Houston area
