My advice to buyers is to be prepared and flexible. Start by getting pre-approved for a mortgage so you understand your budget and can act quickly when you find the right property. Work with an experienced Realtor® who knows the local market and can guide you through competitive situations. Be clear about your needs versus your wants, and don’t be afraid to ask questions throughout the process—it’s a big decision, and having all the information will help you feel confident.

To sellers, I always recommend pricing your home competitively based on current market conditions and comparable properties. A well-priced home attracts more interest and can lead to stronger offers. Also, take time to prepare your home by decluttering, addressing minor repairs, and enhancing curb appeal. Marketing is key, so choose a Realtor® who uses professional photography, staging, and a robust online presence to showcase your property to the widest audience.

I’ve worked with a diverse range of clients, including first-time homebuyers, experienced sellers, real estate investors, and families relocating to or from the area. My experience spans residential sales, investment properties, and guiding retirees looking to downsize. I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each client, ensuring they feel supported every step of the way.

One of my favorite transactions involved a first-time homebuyer who was nervous about navigating the market. We worked together to understand their needs, get them pre-approved, and set realistic expectations. After a few weeks of showings, they found their dream home. We negotiated successfully, and the transaction went smoothly, with my client overjoyed at closing. Helping someone achieve their goal of homeownership is always incredibly rewarding.

My real estate journey began after a long career in administrative roles where I honed my organizational and people skills. I decided to pursue real estate because I wanted to use my expertise to help others make significant, life-changing decisions. I’ve always been passionate about homes and community, so becoming a Realtor® felt like a natural fit.

Additionally, my background in event planning and organizational management allows me to manage complex transactions efficiently. I stay current with market trends and legal updates, ensuring my clients always receive informed and professional service.
