FAQS

1) What advice would you give a buyer trying to purchase a home?

Destin, Fort Walton Beach & 30A are popular vacation destinations, where pricing is higher and market a little more competitive. The surrounding communities of Niceville and Freeport are 20-25 minutes from the beach and a great alternative to the higher priced beach communities. Be sure to have your finances in order, get pre-approved for a mortgage, and be ready to act quickly when you find a property you like.

2) What advice would you give a seller trying to sell their home?

Consider timing your listing to coincide with increased visitor traffic between late spring and early fall. Make sure your home is well-maintained, decluttered, and staged to showcase its potential as either a primary residence or vacation property. Emphasize your home's proximity to community amenities, beaches, schools and attractions. Finally, research recent sales of comparable properties and work with your realtor to set a price that attracts buyers while maximizing your return. Be prepared to adjust based on market feedback.

3) What types of clients have you worked with?

I've worked with clients in every stage of life (first-time home buyers/sellers, move-up buyers, down-size buyers/sellers, new construction), those with life-style preferences (golf, tennis, social club, etc) and those on a wealth building journey (vacation/long term rentals, single and multi-family, RV lot rentals, etc.), and commerical sales, office, retail, multi-family.

6) Do you have any special education or training that will benefit your clients?

My diverse educational background and professional experience provide unique advantages for my clients. My degree, which encompassed architecture, construction, landscape design, and interior design, allows me to offer comprehensive insights into a property's potential and value. I can help buyers envision possibilities for renovations or improvements, and assist sellers in highlighting their home's best features. My land development experience enables me to advise clients on property potential, zoning issues, and future area growth. This knowledge is invaluable for investors or those considering new construction. As a former licensed commercial appraiser, I bring a deep understanding of property valuation. This expertise helps sellers price their homes competitively and aids buyers in making informed offers. I can analyze market trends, comparable sales, and property features to ensure my clients make sound financial decisions.
