Happy National Crayon Day! The smell of crayons. It's enough to transport you right back to childhood. And here in the Corvallis area, we have a big reason to celebrate because in 2017 a new blue pigment, discovered by a chemist at OSU, became inspiration for the creation of the Bluetiful crayon at Crayola: https://science.oregonstate.edu/IMPACT/2017/09/bluetiful-crayola-names-new-yimmn-blue-inspired-crayon

Did you know? Pre-approval from a lender is one of the first steps you’ll want to take if you’re looking to buy a home. That’s when a lender will tell you what you’ll be able to borrow for your home loan – and that information is really important to get before you even start looking at houses. If you’re eager to start your home search, trust me, it’s worth it to get pre-approved first. Reach out to a lender to get that process started.

If you’re thinking about selling right now, a pre-listing inspection may be something you’d want to consider.

DM me and I’ll help you decide if it makes sense for your specific house.
