Hello Caton Team Friends,

Thank you for the Testimonial!

We’re so grateful when our clients share their kind words with us. We love what we do and we love taking great care of our clients.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Sabrina from Caton Real Estate to sell our family home, and we cannot recommend her highly enough. From our first meeting, Sabrina demonstrated exceptional professionalism, knowledge, and a genuine commitment to helping us through the entire process.

She took the time to understand our needs and expectations, providing valuable insights into the market that helped us position our home competitively. Her marketing strategies were impressive, showcasing our home beautifully and attracting a lot of interest.

Sabrina was always available to answer questions and provided regular updates, making us feel supported every step of the way. Additionally, Susan from the same team offered her assistance when needed, ensuring a seamless experience.

Thanks to their hard work and dedication, we sold our home quickly and for a great price. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and effective real estate agent, look no further than Sabrina at Caton Real Estate. We couldn’t be happier with the experience!”

Sincerely – L.A & S.V

We are so blessed to help our clients through all their Real Estate needs.

The Stats are In… Market Snapshot for November 2024

Hello Caton Team Friends,

Here’s the latest stats! Don’t let the numbers or interest rates change your outlook. The Caton Team is here to help navigate your options and help you decide if now or later is a good time to act on your Real Estate goals.

Let’s see our year over year first…

I like to look at November since it is the start of the Winter Season. Most markets slow down over the holidays and you can see it wane in the condo/townhome market. Home prices dipped slightly – because it rained (lol) – but it is true, our weather does impact our buying season. Only the truly motivated house hunt in the winter. Some great opportunities can be had at this time of year. Curious of this market can help you – contact The Caton Team for more information – Email us @ Info@TheCatonTeam.com

Highly recommended to anyone looking for a trustworthy and top-notch service provider! I couldn’t be happier with my decision to work with Caton Team and Berkshire Hathaway Home Services. What truly influenced me to choose them was their exceptional reputation for professionalism and attention to detail. From the very first interaction, I could tell they genuinely cared about meeting my needs and going above and beyond to deliver results. They provided me with confidence and peace of mind, knowing I was in capable hands.

I wanted to extend my deepest gratitude for the incredible job you did in selling my house. Your hard work, dedication, and expertise, specially during such a challenging time. You went above and beyond to ensure a smooth process, and your support truly helped me navigate this transition with confidence. I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor, and I’m so grateful for everything you’ve done.

The Stats are In… Market Snapshot for October 2024

Hello Caton Team Friends,

Let’s see our year over year first…

I like to look at October since it is the end of the Summer/Fall Season and we can see how robust the buying season was. Single Family Homes held steady this year, with a small jump in value. Just about every market saw some gains.

Here’s a look at the month over month trend…

We’re so grateful when our clients share their kind words with us. We love what we do and we love taking great care of our clients. Thank you Mike for your testimonial!

I primarily worked with Sabrina but when she was on vacation, I also had the pleasure of talking with Susan. They were excellent from start to finish. In addition to the 5 star ratings for market expertise (regularly checking comps to adjust as needed), responsiveness (++), negotiation skills (handling 6 competing offers), and professionalism (all the way), Sabrina was fabulous at helping us the seller prepare the house. While initially we thought it was almost “market ready” as we made repairs we realized there was something of a domino effect going on and that more repairs and improvements would definitely help the sale. She was like a fine project manager handling many small details while all the while keeping focused on the big picture. I really am very grateful indeed and highly recommend!

7 Things Every Homeowner Should Do Once a Year

Before the holidays rush now is a great time to make sure your home is in ship shape for winter.

7 Things Every Homeowner Should Do Once a Year

Look how responsible you are

When you bought your house, there were a million and ten things you needed to do. (Hi, inspection, mortgage application and downstairs bathroom conversion.) But over the years, auto-pilot has set in, and those driveway pavers you always meant to replace are still staring you in the face. Stay on top of your home maintenance to-dos by making sure you tackle each of the following once a year.

Clean your gutters

 Old frisbees. Dead leaves. Dead rodents. (Ew.) Nasty stuff can accumulate in your gutters, and keeping them clear is super important for getting snow and rain off that fancy new roof you just replaced. Here’s the best part: If you get them cleaned right now, you won’t have to think about them again until 2017.

Steam clean your carpets 

Yes, you’re a hygienic person who generally doesn’t track gross stuff into her house. But over time, buildup has a way of accumulating–especially in snowy or dusty regions, or if you’ve got children or pets. Rent a steamer (or hire a professional), and relish in a pile that’s as plush and vibrant as the day you bought it.

Wash your windows… like, for real 

Again, you’re probably already Windex-ing the inside of those suckers on a weekly or monthly basis. But the outsides need love, too. Most modern windows pivot inward, so you can wash the whole thing from inside your house. But if you live in an older building and can’t get to windows on the second or third floor, hire a gent with a squeegee and a ladder.

Empty all your drawers 

OK, this one isn’t just for home owners, but anyone who lives in a house should really be in the habit of emptying and assessing every drawer one time per calendar year. Tackle it room-by-room, taking everything out, deciding if you really need it, then purging accordingly before neatly repacking.

Trim your trees

Next-door neighbor Frank hates when your sycamore cascades over his tool shed. Trim that puppy once a year for the health of your tree (a heavy bow is never a good thing) and, of course, your neighborly relations.

Schedule the exterminator 

If you think you only need to talk to Larry the Roach Guy when you’ve actually got creepy crawlers, think again. Getting your house checked and treated preemptively for bugs gives you a much better chance of not finding something disgusting (or paying thousands of dollars for termite damage) down the road.

Check out an open house in the neighborhood

 Even if you plan to live in your home until they take you out on a stretcher, it’s always a good idea to get a sense of the market. Plus, aren’t you dying to know what Kenny and Margaret did with that hideous wood-paneled rec room? You know you want to.
