Is it just me or does February feel like the “real” start of the new year? Now that the holidays are fully behind us, I’m excited to start working towards the goals I've been dreaming up over the last month. Whether you're in full goal-executing mode or just taking it easy, I hope this month is all that you're hoping for!
A few moments from lately ↓
🏀 Took a family trip to Denver to watch the Buena Vista High School basketball teams play in Ball Arena! Such a cool experience- for players and parents alike!
💭 Playing word games with Madi around town!
🏡 Working with many buyers who have been waiting to file their 2025 taxes to learn what they're pre-approved to spend on a home!
If you’re new here, this is the Monthly Edit. It’s where I share what’s happening around town, a few local things I’m loving, and a simple market pulse for anyone who likes to stay in the loop. Easy to skim and always local to Buena Vista.

Tax Season & Buying Power in 2026
Over the past week, I've heard from several people who are intentionally waiting for their 2025 tax returns to be finalized before making a move - and that makes a lot of sense. For many buyers, those numbers help clarify buying power and timing.
If you find yourself in a similar spot - anticipating that your taxes may open up new options for you - it's worth knowing that planning can start well before you're ready to write an offer. Early conversations give you space to understand the market, explore neighborhoods, and make thoughtful decisions without feeling rushed when the time comes.
If you're looking ahead to a 2026 move, I'm always happy to talk through what preparation could look like for you. Simply click below to schedule a call!
