(Please note:  seating for this next workshop is full, so it's standing-room only, but more workshops will be announced on our website soon!)

FREE Workshop: 
Top Home Improvements for Adding the Most Value to your Home 
Saturday, June 27, 2pm-3pm

Learn about the top home improvement projects that will add the most value to your home. Topics will include both updates to your home's interior as well as the exterior curb appeal. You'll also get helpful home maintenance tips that will help you maintain your home's features and systems. Learn from local contractors and one of the area's top producing real estate agents.

 

Robyn Porter recently purchased a farm as a second home. The farm pre-dates 1846 and the farmhouse was once a log-cabin. She has been restoring the home, giving it contemporary comforts yet keeping historic details. Her home renovations combined with her extensive real estate experience give her a keen perspective on home improvements and maintenance.

 

As a licensed REALTOR with more than 11 years experience, Robyn helps people make sense of the home buying and selling process. The Internet and social networks offer people vast resources of advice and information on homes for sale, pricing, neighborhoods, and more. But how to use that information to buy or sell a home is often confusing. Robyn helps people interpret the timelines, checklists, and charts to determine how it applies to a specific home buyer or seller. This helps her clients make informed decisions when faced with many real estate choices. Robyn is a consistent Top Producer with W.C. & A.N. Miller's Bethesda, Maryland All-Points office. She is ranked #4 company-wide in total number of settled transactions in 2014.
