About Me
Amanda Hoyer is a journalist and content strategist covering all things home with a mix of curiosity and clarity. Based in Texas and deep in the thick of her renter-to-homeowner journey, she writes about the realities of buying, building, and living well, especially for folks navigating affordability, climate stress, and the chaos of design trends. Her work blends expert interviews, industry data, and plain-English reporting to help readers make smarter decisions about where (and how) they live. When not chasing stories or tagging sources, she’s probably testing garden layouts, rewiring a vintage sconce, or writing her next “Bread & Butter” dispatch about balancing the hustle with the dream.
