October’s Home – Buying Sweet Spot
Mid-October is shaping up to be the best time of year to buy a home — especially in Florida’s Citrus, Marion, and Levy Counties. According to Realtor.com, buyers can expect more listings, fewer competing offers, and potential savings of up to $15,000 from now through the Fall. With mortgage rates dipping near 6.23% and inventory on the rise, local markets are cooling and shifting in buyers’ favor. Don’t wait — now through the holidays offers the perfect balance of selection, pricing, and negotiation power.

This week on Styled & Savored: avoid the biggest kitchen upgrade regrets, how to know just how long canned goods are good for, and indulge in comfort-food magic (hello, Dr. Pepper pot roast, easy apple snack cake, and candied pecan old fashioned ). We’re sharpening knives, crafting speckled seashell decorative bowls, tipping like Sinatra, and peeking inside a $29M Texas estate – because yes, things really are bigger in Texas. Cooking, crafting, and living well was never this fun!

Oh, and we’re tackling America’s “most hated foods” (anchovies, anyone?), leveling up your cooking temps, and turning your backyard into a bird paradise. Cozy, cheeky, delicious.
