What a Golf Outing Taught Me About Community ⛳🐾

 


There's something that happens when people gather around a cause they believe in. The conversation flows a little easier. The laughter comes a little quicker. And somewhere between the first tee and the last hole, you remember why showing up matters. 💛

That was the Dori's Love Train Golf Outing this year. 🚂

Every June, a wonderful group of people comes together at Fox Hills Golf Course to raise money for the Humane Society of Huron Valley — and every year, I'm reminded that this event is about so much more than golf. It's about community. It's about the people who say yes when asked to help. It's about honoring something bigger than ourselves. 🙌

This year felt especially meaningful. I'm so grateful to my LIVgreat Real Estate team for not only sponsoring the event but for showing up — literally. 🏡❤️ Having colleagues who believe in the same causes you do, who give their time and energy alongside you, is something I don't take for granted. It says everything about the kind of people they are.

In real estate, we talk a lot about finding the right home. But what I've come to believe — especially in my work with seniors and families navigating big life transitions — is that home is really about the community around it. It's the neighbors who wave. 👋 The organizations that show up. The people who give back quietly, year after year, without needing recognition for it.

The golfers, sponsors, volunteers, and supporters at Dori's Love Train are those people. 🌟

If you were part of this year's event — thank you. 🙏 You made a difference for animals in our community who can't advocate for themselves. And you reminded me, once again, why I'm proud to call Ann Arbor home. 💙

Here's to community. Here's to showing up. And here's to next year. 🐾💛⛳

Understanding a PA 116 FDRA Agreement in Michigan (and what it means for value, compensation, and future resale)

  A PA 116 FDRA agreement refers to a Farmland Development Rights Agreement (FDRA) created under Public Act 116 of 1974 , Michigan’s Farmland and Open Space Preservation Act (now part of Part 361 of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act ). This is a statewide, voluntary farmland preservation program that allows landowners across Michigan to commit land to agricultural use in exchange for tax benefits and relief from certain special assessments . While PA 116 applies uniformly throughout the state, its real-world impact can feel more pronounced in areas experiencing development pressure—such as parts of Washtenaw County, including Ann Arbor Township. 📌 What Is PA 116 and an FDRA? PA 116 is shorthand for Public Act 116 , Michigan’s long-standing farmland preservation law. An FDRA (Farmland Development Rights Agreement) is the specific, recorded contract between a landowner and the State of Michigan . By signing an FDRA, the landowner agrees to temporarily res...
