It's not intended as legal, financial, or tax advice. Please consult with a legal, financial or tax advisor. The average American graduates from high school or college knowing next to nothing about personal finances. Most are lucky if they even know how to balance a check book. As a result, the typical person is clueless or intimidated by mortgages, insurance, financial planning, investing, and bu

dgeting. This is a sad reality. As life progresses, we find ourselves looking to buy a house, weighing different insurance policies, and trying to keep our finances in order. Those things are tough to do correctly when we do not have the proper information. Unfortunately, everybody has seen the consequences of, or experienced themselves, poor financial decision without proper education and guidance: A mortgage payment that is too high; excessive fees; high interest; paying too much for insurance; too little coverage; the wrong kind of coverage; terrible customer service; making big financial decisions under pressure from “salesmen”; Living paycheck to paycheck without a plan; poor investment advice; and these are just a few. These are all financial injustices, and they can easily flood into the rest of our life carrying relationships and marriages downstream with them. When I read about and witnessed these financial injustices, I felt sick. Even now, as I write this and think about these things, my stomach churns. It makes me angry, and I want to stop it wherever I can. It is that passion which is the driving force behind Stewardship. We created Stewardship to take a stand against financial injustice—to be a group of companies that can educate and guide people through mortgages, insurance, financial planning, and investments. The mortgage, insurance, or financial plan your neighbor has may not be what is best for you. Getting to know you, understanding your needs, and empowering you with relevant information is what I want to do. Our business isn’t to solely perform transactions. Stewardship aims to build genuine relationships with people, and provide insurance, mortgages, financial planning, and investment management for them with openness, education, and real answers.

There's no shortage of electricians, but finding one who consistently delivers both exceptional work and exceptional service is a different story.

Alex has completed work at our home, including installing our EV charger, and he's also taken great care of several of my clients. Every project has reinforced the same impression. He's knowledgeable, dependable, and genuinely invested in doing right by the people he serves.

The electrical trade requires technical expertise, attention to detail, and a strong work ethic. Alex brings all of that, but what really makes him stand out is the professionalism he brings to every job.

Seven years into his career, Alex has created a reputation that any business owner would be proud of. Livewire Electrician LLC is exactly the kind of local business our community benefits from supporting.

I highly recommend him! Now, if we could just convince him to stop cheering for the Dodgers...

Hidden among the mature pecan trees is one of Gilbert's best-kept secrets... The Groves of Gilbert.

Many people drive right past this neighborhood without ever realizing it's there. What started as a working pecan grove when the area was orchards and fields, is now a small, established community of just 67 homes.

One of the things that makes The Groves so special is that it doesn't feel like a typical subdivision. There are no rows of identical houses or endless new construction. Instead, you'll find mature trees, spacious lots averaging nearly half an acre, and custom homes full of character and unique architectural styles.

If you've been searching for a neighborhood that offers:
- Larger lots with room to spread out
- Beautiful, mature landscaping
- A quieter setting with less traffic
- Custom homes with personality instead of cookie-cutter floor plans

The Groves of Gilbert might just be the hidden gem you've been looking for.

How much to you REALLY need to buy a home? My take? You will need at least $1000 more than you think.

Have you ever heard of “The Starbucks Effect?” No, it's not about how many lattes are standing between you and a down payment. 😅

Essentially, it says this: homes within a quarter mile of a Starbucks increased in value by 96% between 1997 and 2014. The national average over that same period was 60%.

But here's the part I find really interesting - it's not the coffee shop that causes the increase. Starbucks has a whole real estate team whose entire job is to identify neighborhoods already showing signs of growth. Their analysts are doing masterclass-level economic and demographic research to determine up-and-coming areas before anyone else does.

So when a Starbucks shows up, it's less of a cause and more of a confirmation. The neighborhood was already on its way up - and now you have proof. In fact, some real estate agents, builders, and investors watch out specifically for building permits from Starbucks as a sign of where to take a closer look.

That being said, Starbucks also closed 400 locations in 2025. Analysts are starting to ask the question in reverse. If a Starbucks moving in signals a neighborhood on the rise, what does a Starbucks moving out signal?

The consensus so far is that one closure probably won't move the needle. But two or more in the same area is probably worth paying attention to.

Okay, enough real estate talk. What’s your go-to order? No judgment here, mine is light roast, shaken espresso, whole milk, vanilla, half sweet.

Nate's order: an iced mint mocha. Even when it's cold outside.

We're all just out here making financially questionable coffee decisions together. ☕
