What is there to consider when choosing a Realtor to assist you in making one of the critical financial decisions of your life…..buying a home!? Are you drawn to a member of a large Real Estate corporation where it’s a one stop shop? Does a large global presence resonate with you? Perhaps, a saleswoman with millions in sales has appeal?

Why I Do What I Do:
I think the industry can be addicting. If you like people and are energized by helping people make one of the most important decisions in their lives, finding just the right home for a client is extremely gratifying. As a former educator, I think it is vital that my client make an informed decision. Aligning all the components to a successful sale is critical to building a relationship of trust. Having the opportunity to analyze a property and create a plan to launch a home in the marketplace is a very exciting function of my career. Writing the promotional ads and designing the visual layouts for me is the icing on the cake. Achieving a win-win at the closing table that allows my client to move forward with their plans in life is intoxicating.
