Looking for something a little different? You have to try out Little Portugal! Owned by Rosemary and Helder Pereira, you are going to feel like you are right at home in their restaurant.

If you haven’t had Portuguese food then what better way to have your first taste than at Little Portugal. It’s rare to find authentic food around town.

One of the top sellers off their MENU are the pastries, like their custard tart dessert! They are quick to sell out so make sure to stop by before they run out. They do hold a variety of pastries, cheese and sausages that you can purchase while your food is being made.

Little Portugal & Appliance Rehab are celebrating their first birthday and are inviting you to come join them! It is also to celebrate Fuquay-Varina’s first ever Dia De Portugal (Portugal Day). They will have food, activities and live music for this family affair.

Traditionally SPRING is the time of year homeowners start thinking about getting their homes ready to sell.  Around Fuquay-Varina, it’s a SPRING housing market all year long!   I can’t even remember a time we saw a season of sluggish real estate sales.  Even with our record low inventory of homes for sale in Fuquay-Varina, there are some traditional home prep items you don’t want to skip.
Lots of us remember those dreaded days of Mom’s “Spring Cleaning”…this is when all of the curtains came down and the mop buckets came out.  Who remembers washing down all of the walls of your house along with every inch of baseboard and every window inside and out?  Well, Mom was right, the absolute first item to tackle when preparing your home for the market is making it smell and look clean and clutter free. Usually this task can be easily mastered by just taking it one room at a time.
The number one item we suggest when we are called to a home to help a seller prepare for hitting the market is PAINT.  By far, a fresh coat of paint gives the single greatest return on your list of home improvement projects.  We highly recommend hiring a professional, this is no time for that brush mark on the ceiling or splatter on the door.  The professionals will get the job done swiftly and you may even decide you don’t want to sell when they are finished!
Besides any obvious repairs that may be needed, another big “must” before hitting the market is to freshen up your curb appeal.  This is best done by standing on the street and looking at your home. What catches your eye?  Pull those weeds, trim those bushes, plant some color.  This will take a weekend but will be well worth it!  We all know a picture is worth a thousand words, your buyer is most likely going to start online with photos, lots of them, and believe me they will look at them often and very closely.
We are currently experiencing a frenzy of homebuyers that would like to live in Fuquay-Varina, we have less than a 1 month supply of homes on the market at all price points.  If you are thinking of selling we encourage you to speak with a local real estate professional to learn how they can help you achieve your goals.
Call us NOW at 919-577-0175 and we can help you sell your home TODAY!

Q1 2021 is looking a lot like Q1 2020 with our LOCAL robust Fuquay-Varina and Holly Springs real estate sales and extremely low inventory. Continued low interest rates along with some “recovery” from Covid has added to our un-balanced market. New construction neighborhoods have had to slow down sales by releasing only a limited number of lots per month as home construction materials continue to be harder and harder to come by.

Take a look at our quarterly MARKET UPDATE HERE. Let us know if you have any questions or suggestions to add to our report!

This quarter’s numbers show just how un-balanced our market is; as I write this report there are only 80 homes ACTIVE on the market right now for sale in all of Fuquay-Varina, Wake county and there are 459 homes UNDER CONTRACT. (Per our Triangle Multiple Listing Service). As an office we are continuing to see multiple offers above sale prices and homes being sold way above appraised values. Buyers are having to make super strong offers with high due-diligence funds and short due-diligence periods, we just put a town home under contract with $15,000 due diligence!

We are here to help you, your relatives, co-workers, employees, and neighbors. Please consider Front Porch Realty YOUR LOCAL real estate professionals! Please LIKE US on Facebook and Instagram if you haven’t already and please let us know if we can help you get moving too!
