Where were you born? Kingman, Kansas How long have you lived in the area? Since 2001 What do you like most about the area? This area has such a wonderful “small town” feeling to it. Its close proximity to the mountains, a historic old town area, parks, and trails combine to make such a unique area!
What do you most enjoy doing when you’re not working? I enjoy spending time with my family. We love to get away to the mountains and enjoying all the outside activities that Colorado has to offer. My energy comes from good friends and family; they fill my spirit and make me laugh! What is one tip you have for someone looking to sell a house? Know your statistics and data for your specific neighborhood. It is important for the appraiser and for the buyer to know the “trends” for that area. Statistical data plays a key roll in online searches and one needs to master the data and all that is available to current buyers before entering the market. What is one tip you have for someone looking to buy a house? Know what is happening in the market. Market trends and seller motivation are “must knows’ when purchasing to get the best price for the home that is just right for you and your family!
How long have you worked in Real Estate? I’ve been a realtor for the last 11 years. I chose to place my license with RE/MAX Alliance as it has the top realtors in the industry who have a passion for the communities they live in and knowledge of real estate, which provides such a valued resource to my business.
What is the most unusual thing you have encountered while working in Real Estate? The most unusual thing we have found involved a 911 call and a big false alarm! I’m sure those police officers are still telling the story about the blond realtor in the Lexus and her clients! LOL!
What is your specialty and what does that mean for the people you work with? I specialize in residential sales. I am quite proud of
