Getting Ready to List | Emily Askin | October 30, 2023

It's SCORPIO SEASON and we just experienced a partial lunar eclipse in Taurus for the last time in a few decades. Whether you're an adventurous Sagittarius seeking a home with a view as expansive as your dreams, or a bull-headed Taurus looking for a stable earthy abode, we've got your real estate horoscope! Let the stars be your guide as you navigate the celestial market of bricks, mortar, and a sprinkle of cosmic dust. 

Aries (March 21 - April 19):
Congratulations, Aries! This season, the stars predict you'll find a home with a (metaphorical?) fire pit in the backyard, perfect for embracing your fiery spirit. Just remember, the neighbors might not appreciate your spontaneous bonfires every Tuesday night.

Taurus (April 20 - May 20):
Taurus, this season is all about stability. The stars suggest you invest in a home with solid foundations and a garden to nurture. A stubborn home for a stubborn bull - do not under any circumstances until the walls are your favorite color.

Gemini (May 21 - June 20):
Gemini, your dual personality might be torn between a cozy cottage and a modern loft. Compromise with a home that has both vintage charm and a sleek, minimalist kitchen. Perfect for entertaining, or pretending you have a live-in chef.

Cancer (June 21 - July 22):
Home is where the heart is, Cancer, and this season, your heart is set on a cozy nest. Look for a place with a kitchen big enough for your famous family recipes and a bathtub that screams, "self-care."

Leo (July 23 - August 22):
Leo, you're the star of the zodiac, and your home should reflect that. Go for something bold, like a house with a gold-plated mailbox or a lion statue in the front yard. Because subtlety is for the other signs.

Virgo (August 23 - September 22):
Attention to detail is your middle name, Virgo. Find a home with a meticulous floor plan, ample storage for your label maker collection, and a indoor and outdoor spaces you can organize by the inch.

Libra (September 23 - October 22):
Libra, balance is key! Your ideal home has symmetrical architecture, matching throw pillows, and maybe even a mirrored wall to ensure you always look good from every angle.

Scorpio (October 23 - November 21): Scorpio home seekers, the cosmos has a potent message for you in the wake of last weekend's partial lunar eclipse in Taurus. Merge the stable energy of Taurus with your passionate nature to find a home that withstands time and mirrors the depth of your desires. Transform your space with bold design choices, secret corners, and an aura of mystery, creating a sanctuary that resonates with your Scorpio intensity. While exploring the real estate market, trust your instincts to uncover unique gems, but remember to balance intensity with Taurus' stability for a home that's both enchanting and practical. As the moon in Taurus takes a mysterious turn, let the cosmic energies guide you to a home that not only stands strong but resonates with the transformative spirit of Scorpio.

Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21):
Adventure awaits, Sagittarius! Find a home with a view that matches your expansive spirit. Bonus points if there's a zip line from your bedroom to the kitchen for those lazy mornings.

Capricorn (December 22 - January 19):
Capricorn, climb that mountain of success right into your dream home. Look for a place with a home office, built-in espresso machine, and a panoramic view of the city you've conquered.

Aquarius (January 20 - February 18):
Innovation is your game, Aquarius. Consider a smart home with AI-controlled everything, from the temperature to your playlist. Just be prepared for the occasional rebellion from your tech-savvy appliances.

Pisces (February 19 - March 20):
Pisces, your dream home is a waterfront oasis where you can let your imagination flow. Look for a place with a creative space, a meditation room, and a backyard that merges seamlessly with the cosmos.

So there you have it, starry-eyed home seekers! May your house hunting journey be as puckish as a retrograde Mercury, and your closing day be smoother than a Virgo's perfectly folded laundry. Happy house hunting in the cosmic real estate market! 🌌🏡✨

She works with buyers and sellers across Highland Park, Squirrel Hill, Point Breeze, Regent Square, Shadyside, and Friendship, and she is known for pricing old houses right and being honest about what a home is actually worth.

Before real estate, she spent years renovating and investing in property, which is why she reads a house the way a serious buyer does - the roof, the sewer line, the original woodwork worth saving, the flip-grade kitchen that will cost you later. She treats every sale as both a financial decision and a life decision, and she works it that way from pricing through closing.

She works with people relocating to Pittsburgh and with sellers trading up to their next house. She is also the agent design-minded buyers call when they want someone who can tell good bones from a fresh coat of paint.
