My passion is in my name: Fulfilling Real Estate DreamsAs consumers strive to be more educated, I engage my clients beyond the basic questions of preferred location and number of bedrooms and baths. One of my favorite aspects of touring homes with clients is opening their eyes to the possibilities of a property, as well as some potential pitfalls. My clients say that I'm generous with my time, listen to their needs, and deliver on what they wanted in a REALTOR?, and ultimately, what they wanted in a home. I also value educating my clients on the many facets of the home search process. For example, one factor to consider in buying a new home is the amount time you plan to reside there. Having a future exit strategy may be just as important as how and why you purchase a property.My love for homes began in high school during an apprenticeship with a builder/remodeler in Rye, NH. This love has grown and evolved ever since--through years as a real estate appraiser in Charlotte, ownership of my own remodeling company, and alongside a customer service career with jetBlue Airways. As challenging as the airline business is, the common thread between the travel industry and real estate is quality communication. In 2005, I became a licensed REALTOR? in Tampa, Florida, combining my two passions: homes and people. I am now excited to continue that passion here in Asheville. Allow me to put my 25+ years of personal customer service and real estate experience to work for you. I'm ready to help you fulfill your next real estate dream.About meGrowing up in a military family, I found that change has been my constant.
