June Newsletter - You Paid for the Whole Day. Keep It. + 3 Townhomes & Florida Sunshine

Hello friends,

Summer is officially here — Apple Canyon Lake and Galena Territory are buzzing, and the real estate market is moving right along with it. This month’s newsletter is packed: a market update, a short-term rental opportunity you’ll want to see, big news from A&D Rise Getaways, and even a little Florida sunshine. Let’s dive in!

June Market Snapshot — Jo Daviess County

Summer is heating up, and so is the market.

Inventory remains tight across Jo Daviess County, and well-priced homes are moving quickly — a market that continues to favor sellers heading into the busiest season of the year. But county-wide numbers only tell part of the story. What’s happening in Galena Territory looks different than Apple Canyon Lake, Stockton, or East Dubuque — and what matters most is what’s happening around your home, in your price range.

Want the real numbers, delivered straight to you? Reply to this email and ask to be added to our market reports. We’ll send you data specific to your area — no fluff, no pressure, just Real Results information you can actually use.

Summer Moves Fast — Your Plans Don’t Have To

Summer is busy. People are moving and shaking, and the real estate market is no different. If selling is even a glimmer on your horizon — this year, next spring, “someday” — the best conversations start early.

I’m all about meeting you where you’re at. Tell me a move might be coming in the next year, and we can strategize now: timing, prep, pricing. No pressure, just a plan.

Three Townhomes. Three Realtors. One Smart Opportunity.

Here’s a fun one: I currently have three 2-bed, 2-bath townhomes for sale — 23 Oak Glen, 10 Farmstead, and 21 Thatcher. Two are in our rental program, and the third already holds a rental license. And get this — all three are owned by Realtors. What are the chances? They could have listed anywhere, and they picked me.

Each townhome has its own style, which means there’s something here for everyone. If you’ve been curious about the short-term rental market, now is a great time to start the conversation. With a few smart tweaks, properties like these have real income potential — ask me about what our top performers are doing, and I can walk you through the market data one-on-one.

Featured Listing Spotlight — Sunshine State Opportunity

Know someone Florida-dreaming? New price: $389,000

A retired Realtor from right here in our area — someone I deeply respect — has a home to sell in FL! She loves our marketing and asked me to help spread the word about her home at 17533 Timberline Pkwy in Punta Gorda, now listed at a new price of $389,000.

3 bed  |  2 bath  |  1,682 sq ft — single-story Florida living with a two-car garage, paver driveway, and lush tropical landscaping.

When a Realtor with decades of experience trusts you to pass along her listing, that means something. Whether you’re snowbird-curious, looking for an investment, or know someone heading south, reach out and I’ll personally introduce you to the listing agent.

You Paid for the Whole Day. Keep It.

A&D Rise Getaways announces: Noon check-in. Noon check-out. Yes, really.

Here’s something the vacation rental industry doesn’t want to talk about: when you check in at 4pm and check out at 11am, you’re giving up five hours you paid for. Five hours of lake time, porch coffee, one last swim.

At A&D Rise Getaways, we’re disrupting that. Noon check-in, noon check-out — a full 24-hour day for every night you book. We don’t take from our guests. We give to them. Because hospitality shouldn’t come with fine print.

Home 2 Home — Our Client Trailer Is Ready When You Are

Moving is a big job — so we bought a trailer. Our Home 2 Home client trailer is one of the most-loved perks of working with DC Rise Real Estate. It’s an enclosed trailer available to our clients to make moving day easier (and cheaper — no rental truck fees!). Whether you’re going across town or across the county line, we go Home 2 Home with you.

Ask about availability when you work with us, or learn more at dcriserealestate.com/matchmakers.
