4) Describe a recent transaction you are fond of. How did it go?
Recently, I had the pleasure of working on a transaction that truly stood out to me. A seller, who was living out of state, had been struggling to sell their home for over 120 days with no offers in sight. Feeling discouraged, they turned to the internet in search of a new direction and came across my profile. With my extensive experience in revitalizing older listings, I knew I could help. I immediately got to work, implementing a strategy to give the property a fresh look and feel. We invested in professional photography, created detailed floor plans, and staged the home to perfection. On the first day of relisting, the response was overwhelming. Potential buyers were drawn to the beautifully presented property, and we had multiple offers pouring in. Within a short time, we were under contract, much to the delight and relief of the sellers. Witnessing their joy and gratitude as I lifted the financial strain off their shoulders was incredibly fulfilling for me. It reaffirmed why I love what I do – not just selling houses, but making a real difference in people's lives. Seeing the sellers overjoyed and thrilled was the ultimate reward, and I couldn't be happier to have been a part of their journey.
5) How did you get started in Real Estate?
My journey into real estate began at a young age, shaped by the influence of my father, who was a custom home builder in the Birmingham, AL, and Destin, FL areas. Being the oldest of four kids, I found myself naturally drawn to my father's work, spending countless hours riding to job sites with him. From a tender age, he immersed me in the world of construction, patiently teaching me every aspect of managing a new construction home build. Whether it was coordinating with contractors, learning the intricacies of the building process, or even getting my hands dirty with physical work, my father ensured I gained valuable experience every step of the way. As I grew older, my involvement evolved, and during my college years, I transitioned into working in his office at an administrative level. This role allowed me to oversee the construction process from inception to closing, serving as the liaison between homebuyers and the construction team. Being the voice and face of communication brought me immense satisfaction, as I witnessed the joy and excitement of families as they watched their dream homes come to life. This rich upbringing laid the foundation for my passion for real estate, instilling in me a deep appreciation for the industry and the opportunity to play a meaningful role in people's lives.
6) Do you have any special education or training that will benefit your clients?
My journey as a previous military wife for over 13 years has provided me with a unique perspective and invaluable training in navigating the challenges of frequent moves. Over the course of 16 years, I've become intimately acquainted with the stresses and uncertainties that accompany transitions in and out of different areas. This firsthand experience has honed my ability to anticipate the needs of individuals and families during these pivotal moments in their lives. Additionally, my legal assisting degree has served as the bedrock for my expertise in contract writing and negotiation. Armed with this knowledge, I'm adept at crafting agreements that protect my clients' interests while facilitating smooth transactions. However, beyond the technical aspects of real estate, my greatest strength lies in my genuine love and compassion for the people in my community. I firmly believe in serving others with empathy and understanding, seeing each person for who they are and recognizing the unique needs they bring to the table. This heartfelt approach allows me to build meaningful connections with my clients and guide them through the intricacies of buying or selling a home with care and compassion.
