I would consider my “style” to be on the neutral farmhouse/cottage side of the spectrum. A lot of my decor is thrifted or clearance finds (and I pride myself in my ability to find a bargain šŸ˜‰ #HollaForADolla ). I am a part-time grad student (working on my MBA) and work as the Marketing Director for a local real estate firm.

I’ve been blogging for almost five years now, and it has come to be a truly happy place for me! So many of the accounts I follow on Instagram inspired me to start this digital space and share my passions on a new level. (You can find some of those amazing people under the “My Favorite Bloggers” tab!)

So, the goal is to provide everyday people like me with the motivation to “keep on keepin’ on” and to show that you don’t have to big bucks to create beautiful spaces. I love to see/hear feedback, so comments whether on here or on social media, which is linked on the home page, are most definitely welcome.

We said we were doing this… In Sept of 2024, we said we were doing this. But we didn’t know it’d be on this level. Y’all, this man and I have stuck together through it all. When he was working full time at the hospital, he’d come in after hours at the office and we’d make it happen. We’d get on the phone or on zoom at 10pm, 11pm, midnight after he got off, got the fam fed and got everyone to bed. We’ve handle every contractual issue in gods creation because J has a talent for finding crazy deals. We’ve done open houses, we’ve gone to events, we’ve comped all kinds of properties (even tho he doesn’t always listen to me when I tell him what they’ll sell for 😜) Because, yes, I was his coach for the first 20-ish deals, but y’all my peeps are not just business to me. Yes, it’s my job to get them through the transactions, but it’s my privilege and honor to walk beside them while they launch a business. To me, their win are my wins. And this was a HUGE win for #CortesAndDuke today šŸ’æ
.
I’ve never seen someone make things happen the way he makes things happen. And yet today I sat next to the KWLP Rookie of the Year, a top 20 agent for our office, THE ROOKIE OF THE YEAR FOR THE FREAKIN’ SOUTHEAST REGION OUT OF 13,000 PEOPLE, and most importantly… my brother. 
.
J, there’s nothing you can’t do, and this just further proves it. There’s so much that’s went down behind the scenes that honestly should have taken you out a few different times - should have taken us both out 🤪 but it didn’t. And honestly, it’s a God thing, because I pray for my family every day, which includes him, and I know he does the same for me. And Jesus is the only reason that we’ve made it here. šŸ™
.
I’m just so proud… this is a poor little attempt to put it in words, but I’m proud. I guess this is the same pride that parents feel when their kids win championship games 🤪 Papa Duke is just beaming with pride šŸ’™
.
To sound like J - This is NOT summm light, it’s most definitely crazy, but y’all know the ******* vibes 🤪

Dearest Gentle Reader… It seems the season’s most Dearest Gentle Reader…

It seems the season’s most eligible REALTOR has entered the market (and already watched all the newest episodes šŸ™ˆ)

And with the height of the sales season just weeks away, we would not want to miss the opportunity to make your particular property the dazzling Diamond šŸ’Ž of the Spring Market šŸ’

Submit your inquiries and let’s make your listing the newest talk of the ton. 

(Getting carried away with the AI pics… but I would have THRIVED in the regency era 🤩🤪)

Dearest Gentle Reader, It appears that one Mr. Dy Dearest Gentle Reader,

It appears that one Mr. Dylan Duke has once again captured the attention of society… though this time, not with property portfolios or open houses, but with undeniable Regency-era charm. šŸ’

Spotted: a gentleman, impeccably dressed, smiling as though he knows exactly the effect he has on the ton. One cannot help but wonder… is he searching for love, listings, or perhaps both?

One thing is certain: whether navigating ballrooms or backyards, estates or entryways, this gentleman remains ever so devoted to helping others find their perfect match… in real estate, of course. šŸ”āœØ

And so, dear reader, we shall be watching closely. After all, in matters of the heart and home, ā€œthe DUKEā€ is quite the one to know.

Yours truly,
Lady Whistledown

Everyone’s moving in the same direction… until one Everyone’s moving in the same direction… until one penguin decides to find his own way.

That’s a lot like real estate.

The best homes aren’t always found by following the crowd — they’re found by figuring out what ā€œHOMEā€ actually means to you. It may feel risky to make the jump, but what if leads you to the perfect place?

And that’s where I come in. šŸ§āž”ļøšŸ”
