  Home Sales Consultant

  New Homes, Existing Homes, Relocation, Education, Counselor, Listing, Purchase, First-time Home Buyers, SeniorsI love my job and my clients! As of 12/31/2019, my business comes from 91% referrals and/or friends. I am just as excited to find the perfect home for their family as I would be my own. This is my business and I treat it that way; but I never forget that my clients are making emotional decisions about their biggest investment. My previous experience in negotiations, foundation work, plumbing, construction, interior design, teaching, photography, architecture and technology give me the competitive edge over other agents. The real estate industry has been the same for decades, but is ever evolving. To ignore the new needs of our clients (Millennials to seniors) is to become obsolete. This will always be a face-to-face business because it's a big investment that requires trust. Nevertheless, technology is king in our world and you need an agent that understands that. I am successful because I meet my client's where they are. And they appreciate that.Always ethical and a great negotiator for my clients. Show less
