Your Home, Your Story

Meet Megan Banta

I’m a third-generation Realtor, which means real estate isn’t something I fell into — it’s something I was raised in. My mom, Heather, has been my mentor, my partner, and honestly, my greatest example of what this business looks like when you do it with integrity and care. Growing up around that shaped everything: how I listen, how I negotiate, how I think about a home not just as a property but as the backdrop of someone’s life. By the time I helped my first client, I already had years of watching, learning, and understanding what people really need when they’re making one of the biggest decisions of their lives. 
 
Buying or selling a home rarely happens in a vacuum — it usually shows up right in the middle of life changing. A new job, a growing family, a fresh start. I’ve always felt that’s exactly why this work matters so much, and why I take the responsibility seriously.
 

My job isn’t just to get you to closing. It’s to make sure you actually understand what’s happening at every step, feel confident in the decisions you’re making, and don’t lose sleep over the details — because I’m already handling them. I get ahead of problems before they develop. That’s not a tagline. It’s just how I was taught to do this.

What I want for every client is simple: that you walk away feeling like you had someone genuinely in your corner the whole time. And that my guidance exists beyond the closing date. After purchasing a home, I’m here to help you maintain, update, and be informed of how your home appreciates over the lifetime of your home ownership.

Home Buyer Consultation

Learn about the home buying process which I have developed over my decade-long career. From Search to Purchase and Negotiation I'll smooth the path all the way to closing day. Whether you're just considering becoming a homeowner or ready to begin your search, let's put the time upfront to prepare for participating in the market responsibly.

Home Seller Consultation

After touring your home with you, I'll present a Comparative Market Analysis to demonstrate the unique attributes of your house and neighborhood, digging into details that far exceed automated home values seen online. Along with market driven statistics I apply a personal touch to designing your listing timeline to identify how to best position your sale to meet your ultimate real estate goals.

Maintenance & Improvements

Buying and Selling real estate isn't a transactional deal for me. My referral based business is driven by growing and supporting my community of clients. Our relationship spans during your homeownership. I will help you maintain, repair and upgrade your home through communication reminders and providing trusted referrals within my network of contractors.

Testimonials

What my clients say

"We used Megan to buy our house and once again had a great experience using her to sell our house. She was very involved from pre-listing all the way through closure, making sure everything was staying on track. She was very communicative, had great contacts to help us when we needed to make some repairs, and overall helped our place sell above asking!"
Rob Kairis
“Megan is a fantastic realtor and a delight to work with. She helped us purchase our first home, patiently walking us through the entire process, answering all our questions, and sharing so much knowledge along the way. She‘s detail oriented, responsive, an effective negotiator, and trustworthy. I highly recommend Megan to anyone who’s looking for a realtor!”
Jules Prow
“We worked with Megan to purchase our first home and Megan made the process much less intimidating as we navigated through so many unknowns. Megan was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the correct pricing, school districts, and neighborhoods that would appeal to us to help narrow our choices down. Whatever needs we had, Megan met them! ”

FAQ

Common questions

The goal is to make your home as appealing as possible to the most potential buyers before photos of your home are taken. Staging your home can include anything from redecorating to rearranging furniture, cleaning, or other aesthetic strategies to present the home in the best possible light. You can do it yourself, have your real estate agent guide you, or hire a staging company.

In most cases, the buyer pays for the home inspection.

If someone is selling a home that needs repairs but chooses not to fix them, they may list a property as-is. Disclosures and inspections are typical steps in the process. In an as-is sale, a buyer willingly purchases the home in its current state with full knowledge of its condition.

When selling a property, it is incumbent upon the seller to disclose any details about the home that might negatively affect its value.

Factors such as the time of year and market conditions play a big role in how quickly a property sells. How you price, market, and stage your home are also very important variables that will affect how long a home remains on the market.

Any fixture that is ‘attached’ or built into the house typically remains. For example, if your house has built-in bookshelves, they typically stay with the house. The same is true of kitchen or bathroom fixtures and fireplaces. Exceptions and details can be discussed during the negotiation process.
