Color of the Month- Glorious Gray

Friday, April 27th, 2012 at 3:33pm. 684 Views, 0 Comments.

Welcome to our first Color of the Month feature. This month we are celebrating the many tones of gray! Gray is often overlooked as a color choice as there is a misconception that it is a dull, colorless hue that will make a space feel dreary. WRONG! Because gray is not actually a true color, it provides the perfect neutral base that will harmoniously coordinate with any other color you can think of. When paired with pops of color, gray takes on a whole new perspective, as our examples below illustrate.

The Pure Energy SPRING CARNIVAL


The Spring Carnival is an annual event hosted by Donna Kerr and The Pure Energy Team. The Spring Carnival is just one of the ways we like to give back to the community by providing a fun, free environment for residents to mingle, meet their fellow neighbors and let the kids play!

From pony rides to a petting zoo and moon bounce to the wonderful entertainment of The Dean of Magic - a fun day was had by everyone! Thanks to everyone who attended and enjoyed the day with us!

Before- dining roomThe photo to the left captures one of the sights that met our eyes when we first stepped foot in 740 Whitaker Terrace. The before photos are self explanatory of what needed updating, replacing and demolishing! A four month period of planning, estimates, design, contractor work, budgeting and staging culminated in one of the best renovation projects the design team has taken on to date.

This project is a great example of how to prepare a house for the market without breaking the bank. In particular, the kitchen and baths have been modernized, but utilize original elements to keep costs down.

Refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint throughout, After- dining roomnew tile, carpet, appliances, light and bath fixtures, modern furniture and accents all contributed to

Silver Spring Real Estate Market is on Fire!!

Friday, April 6th, 2012 at 5:49pm. 258 Views, 1 Comments.

WOW!  The spring real estate market is really heating up!  I have JUST SOLD 12 HOUSES IN THE LAST 60 DAYS!  Several had multiple offers, one sold for $14,000 over list price and half sold in less than 1 week.  4 sales were back to back sell/buy combinations that worked out seemlessly.  I could do the same for you.  We need MORE LISTINGS!! We can’t get our homes on the market fast enough.  We need MORE BUYERS!!  Take advantage of the low interest rates.  95% conventional financing available!  If you’ve been waiting for a good time to sell or buy, the time is now.  Call me today and see what I can do for you!
