We’re Moving

March 16, 2021 By Libby Guthrie Leave a Comment

At the end of February 2021, Ken and I will be moving to Knoxville, Tennessee.

But don’t worry! We aren’t leaving you behind.

Guthrie Group Homes will still be serving you as your trusted Real Estate Agents in Contra Costa County.

Here’s how it will work.

When you have a real estate need, you can still contact me directly. We will maintain the same contact information, phone number, and email address.  None of that will change.

Just give me a call as usual and I will take care of you.

The only difference is when it comes time to list your home or look for a new home, our partner, Brittany Armenta will be your local point of contact. I will introduce you directly and we will all discuss your wants and needs.

As we have told you, Brittany is an outstanding agent whom we have known for many years. I personally have mentored her throughout her career as a Realtor.

If you didn’t read our article introducing Brittany, you can see it on our website at https://guthriegrouphomes.com/brittany

Brittany and her entire team will serve you just like family.

Ken and I will continue to work as real estate agents in Knoxville as well as in the Brentwood area.

We chose Knoxville as our new home since I still have family and friends in that area. We are very excited to begin our new adventures in Tennessee! However, we are sad that we won’t be here in person to help you.

We would love for you to follow us on Facebook and Instagram where we will share our new adventures with you!

Just to assure you, we will still be keeping in touch with you as we always have.

You will still:

  • Have access to our website and news articles
  • Receive our monthly e-newsletter via email
  • Receive our quarterly newsletter in the mail
  • Receive our popular monthly recipe postcard
  • Have phone and email access
  • Have virtual access via the web
  • Get all the goodies you have been receiving all along

I will still have an active real estate license in California, have a local mailing address in Brentwood, and the same local phone number.

You will still be our friends, clients, and family!

I will be reaching out by phone to you soon to answer your questions and concerns.

Ken and I look forward to continuing as your go-to Realtors in California. And if you want, in Tennessee as well! 😊

 

Sincerely,

Libby Guthrie

When Selling Is Simply the Better Move If you've When Selling Is Simply the Better Move

If you've been weighing whether to keep the house and rent it out, it's worth hearing the other side: plenty of the time, selling is the clearer call.
 
You need equity. If the down payment on the next home depends on this one's proceeds, that usually settles it. Stretching to carry two mortgages is where this decision goes wrong most often.
The numbers don't work. Rent that doesn't cover the carrying costs, with no strong case for appreciation, is a monthly subsidy to a house you no longer live in.
 
The house needs work. Deferred maintenance, an aging roof, old systems. Tenants don't defer those costs — they surface them.
 
Your home sells well right now. A softer headline market doesn't mean your specific house is sitting.
 
You don't want the job. Being a landlord is ongoing work, not a one-time decision. Plenty of owners run the numbers, see a decent hold on paper, and sell anyway because they'd rather have a clean break and a simpler life.
 
Keeping the house isn't a free option. It just doesn't come with a monthly bill that makes the cost obvious.

Would you rather: move before the holidays, or wai Would you rather: move before the holidays, or wait until spring? 🏡⁣
⁣
Both are real strategies, and they trade off in opposite directions.⁣
⁣
Move now, there is less competition for the homes that are out there, sellers who are motivated rather than testing the market, and more room to negotiate. The tradeoff is a shorter runway and a move squeezed into a busy season.⁣
⁣
Wait for spring — more listings, more choices, and better weather for everything from photos to moving day. The tradeoff is more buyers competing for the same homes, and prices that tend to firm up when they do.⁣
⁣
There's no universally right answer here. It mostly comes down to whether your priority is selection or leverage.⁣
