Curtin Team Cares Presents the Roswell Home Refresh Project 2025 — Featuring Toni Reeves

Each year, The Curtin Team looks forward to one of its most meaningful traditions: the Roswell Home Refresh Project.

Is It Time to “Rightsize?”: Why more homeowners are rethinking what home really means—through every season of life.

Over the years, we’ve had the honor of guiding hundreds of families through some of the most meaningful moves of their lives. Lately, one theme keeps coming up again and again: “I think it’s time for something different.” More and more, homeowners are choosing to “rightsize”—not necessarily scaling down, but finding a home that better fits their lifestyle today. It’s less about square footage, and more about freedom, simplicity, and purpose. Maybe you’ve been asking yourself: – What would life look like with less maintenance—or in a new location? – Am I still in a home that serves my currentRead More…

Are You Earning The Right To Upgrade?

24 years ago, Tom and I started our business. Tom was sitting in a $5 plastic chair from Food Lion. After some initial success, we could have clearly bought a chair but we were using what we had, reinvesting in our business and education. I’ll never forget when the arm broke off and was flapping around. I couldn’t find the picture of Tom sitting in the chair (probably for the best) Here’s the thing — it’s easy to get caught up in how things look. None of that matters if you’re not doing the work. Lead with revenue. Earn theRead More…

Fear vs. Strategy

My first love language? Words of affirmation. My second? Strategy. Tom and I are always buying, always studying the market, always thinking five steps ahead. But even for us, it’s not always easy. I know so many of you feel the same way. You’re sitting in a house with a sweet 2.5% interest rate, thinking, Why would I give this up? You want more space, a better location, a fresh start—but that low rate feels like golden handcuffs. And the fear of making the wrong move? It’s real. But here’s what I know: fear keeps people stuck, and stuck peopleRead More…

The Truth About the Home Buying Process

As shared in the second edition of Your First Home, written by Gary Keller and Jay Papasan: “Buying a home is a big decision – particularly your first home – but it is one of the best choices anyone can make. It’s a place that is entirely your own. Something you can paint, renovate, and live a full life in. Secondly, the reality is that homes are an incredible way to accumulate generational wealth. Because home isn’t only where your heart is, it’s where your money is, too. There are few places you will treasure more than your home andRead More…

The Truth About the Home Buying Process

It’s Okay To Quit!

I have a masters in early childhood education. I spent 5 years teaching during the day and working nights at a restaurant. Then, in 2001, I quit! But here’s the thing—I didn’t just quit to escape; I quit to build something better. It’s okay to run away from something that isn’t serving you. But never quit unless you’re running toward something greater. That decision changed my life. Because wealth, freedom, and success aren’t found in playing it safe—they’re built by those willing to bet on themselves. Go make a move and level up! — Joanne Connect with me on socialRead More…
