I moved to the Des Moines area in 2016 from North Carolina. Since living here I have tried my best to embrace it and make it home. As a veteran and mom to four I understand that buying a home is a precious investment and can be one of the most stressful occasions. I make it my job to help lighten the stress by guiding you through the process. I look forward to hearing from you when you are ready to make that move!

On the buyer side I have great market knowledge and can walk you through every step of the process. Whether you are a first time buyer or experienced in the process I think you will find we work great together.

"We could not have had a better experience with Jason! We were buyers with a lot of questions and needs and Jason (day or night) was responsive to all of them! We also had a mild hiccup while the sellers put the finishing touches on our house and Jason was so patient with us and helpful through it all. Jason was happy to give his honest opinion and was receptive to our needs and wants in a home. Could not have a had a better home buying experience and it was all thanks to Jason!"

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

While a finished basement adds value to your home, it is assigned a different value than space on the main floors. An appraiser will assess the square footage of a finished basement at about 50% to 60% of the value of the square footage for the rest of your home. Appraisal value for a finished basement depends on your location’s real estate market and the specifics of the basement and how it was finished. 

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

Property condition, comparables, market trends, and location influence appraisal.

Adding a detached garage can increase the home's value by a healthy amount, provided it's well-constructed, permitted, and inspected. The return on investment for a detached garage depends on the structure's size and function, as well as its quality. On average, consumers who add a detached garage can expect their home's value to increase by between $12,000 and $36,000. 

It’s often a good idea to take care of any health and safety repairs before an appraisal to make sure the mortgage can move to underwriting without having to pay for another appraisal. Replace any broken glass, fix uneven or sloping floors, ensure all steps have appropriate handrails, and have a professional get rid of mold, asbestos, and lead paint. Beyond these repairs, you can update appliances or fixtures and focus on aesthetic improvements like new paint to add the most value before scheduling an appraisal.
