We hope this message finds you happy and well! As we welcome 2025, we want to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Wrapping this incredible year, we can’t help but feel grateful – and the number one reason?

YOU! We’ve had the honor of helping so many families like yours overcome tough negotiations, conquer challenges, and celebrate some truly amazing wins this year. Every moment reminded us why we love what we do! We’re not just buying and selling houses – we’re helping make real estate dreams come true!

Over 133 families trusted us to join them through the home selling and buying process, and your introductions have been a huge part of this! We are truly humbled by the confidence you’ve placed in us to serve those you love. But your introductions don’t just help us, each family you introduce to us gives us the opportunity to return the blessing to our community! Together, we have the greatest honor of supporting causes bigger than ourselves, and the passion it brings to our hearts is a fulfillment like no other! Here are some of our favorite highlights from this year:

  • $328,292.01 donated to worthy causes in our community like GoJenGo.
  • $40,400 raised for Fisher House Foundation as our 15 runners tackled the Army 10 Miler.
  • $14,524.63 donated so far this year to our local schools to support student events, sports programs & scholarships.
  • 500+ Homeless Veterans in our nation’s capital fed this holiday season through Feed A Veteran.
  • Delivering hope by having critical supplies delivered to hurricane victims to rebuild after Helene and Milton.
  • Named 3 years in a row by Inc. 5000 as one of the fastest growing companies in the US!

One of the most important things to us over the years has been our team’s continued growth and expansion to ensure our clients get extraordinary service. Seeking out talent to add to our already stellar team is a top priority! The extension of many real estate teams can mean a decline in client service, but that is NOT the case with EmpowerHome Team. As we often say, “Teams Win!” We’re proud to keep growing while staying focused on delivering exceptional care and results for every client.

On the family side of things, Kristen and Glenn have been beyond blessed in 2024! This year has been an amazing journey, and we all took a moment to reflect on the impact she’s made, the lives she’s touched, and the incredible growth along the way. They are loving parenthood and this year has been a wonderful time of reflection, watching their children grow as individuals, bringing a deep sense of pride and nostalgia.

“2024 marked a milestone for our family with four official teenagers! Drew made the middle school golf team, continues competing in tournaments, and even won the local Drive, Chip, and Putt. Laney turned 16, discovered a passion for lacrosse, and is diving into the college search while loving her time with YoungLife, which took her to Colorado this summer! Selwyn started high school & her dedication at the barn earned her a win at a summer horse show! Beckham’s entrepreneurial spirit keeps him busy, and we’re excited to see the young man he’s becoming. Time is flying, and we’re cherishing every moment.”

“To whom much is given, much is required,” and we have been given so much! Thank you for being a vital part of our story and client-family. As we step into 2025, we pray for blessings and prosperity for you and your loved ones. We are committed to helping even more families reach their real estate goals, but we can’t do this without your help! We would love to help your friends, family, and neighbors with the same passion and dedication that we have provided to you. Please introduce us, by calling 980-238-2767 today, we would be honored to serve them!

Wishing you a joyful Christmas and a fantastic start to 2024! Here’s to a year filled with happiness and success. If there’s anything you need or exciting news you’d like to share, we’d love to hear from you!

Thank you!
