FROM THE DESK OF ANNETTE HOLT & DAVIS HOLT
Spring has brought new energy to the Wake County real estate market, with April seeing increased listings and buyer activity. Homes that are well-priced and well-presented are selling quickly, often with multiple offers, and the average time on market has dropped to just 19 days. Buyers are encouraged to prepare now, and sellers have a great opportunity to stand out. The team is also running a “Sunny Days & Sandy Toes” raffle as a thank-you for Google reviews, with a chance to win a summer prize pack.

ENERGY EFFICIENT MORTGAGES
An Energy Efficient Mortgage (EEM) allows homebuyers or homeowners to finance energy-saving upgrades—like insulation, new windows, or solar panels—within their mortgage. This can lead to lower utility bills, increased home value, and long-term savings. Available through various loan types including FHA, VA, USDA, and conventional options, EEMs typically require a home energy assessment to qualify. It’s a smart way to boost comfort, reduce environmental impact, and invest in a more efficient future. Contact Davis at Cross Country Mortgage for more details!
CASE STUDY
When the out-of-state heir of 5800 Forest Drive needed help selling the inherited home, he turned to us after reading our Google reviews. From coordinating an estate sale to overseeing painting, staging, and professional photography, we managed every step of the process. Our full-service approach paid off—multiple offers came in the first weekend, and the home sold for over $25,000 above list price. It’s the level of care and strategy that sets our team apart.
