A good realtor not only addresses the needs of their clients/customers, but they also build relationships with them for continued growth in the future. Focusing on the individual is in every aspect is what I commit to. Licensed in Maryland since 2012, however a native Washingtonian of over 28+ years, I have seen the metropolitan area at its best! The growth that this area has seen has been tremendous and as your realtor, I want you to be able to experience and live in the hustle and bustle of what the D.C. Metro has to offer. To My Buyers . . . What do you need? A vintage home on the Lake? A comfortable family residence in the suburbs? A Condo in the City? I can find it. My vast knowledge of the entire metropolitan area and surrounding counties will help you locate just the right spot. Throughout the entire process, I am your advocate by representing you, the buyer, ensuring you have access to the entire marketplace and aggressively negotiating on your behalf. You can be assured that the journey from our first meeting to closing and beyond will be smooth, successful, educational and fun! To My Sellers . . . Marketing is an art and requires active and total involvement from the start. Since buyer enthusiasm is greatest in a listing that is new to the market, it is critical that you and I have done all of our work up front. I will provide resources when outside help is needed. I will help you "stage" your home with suggested furniture placement and I will provide additional art and accessories as needed. Once the home is prepared, I prepare the marketplace. I want your home to be available to the entire buying populace on the first day of presentation, not to just one or two select buyers. I provide immediate exposure through rigorous networking, the Metropolitan Multiple Listing Service, virtual tours on the World Wide Web, generous newspaper, magazine advertising and online marketing, 24 hour Hotline, open houses, REALTOR opens, and professional color brochures. My formula for success: sparkling properties + energetic marketing = enthusiastic buyers, fast sales and top $$$. The Early Years... I was born and raised in Mitchellville, Maryland. I grew up living in the same home for 13+ years until I attending Temple University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. After I finished school with a Bachelors of Arts in Psychology and a minor in business, I went to work for GreenDoor as a mental health counselor. From there I met several realtors who introduced me to the real estate industry. But with me being reluctant about getting into the business, I continued to work in the mental health field securing a position with Loudoun County Government. In 2011, I decided to get my real estate license. Over the past year, I've met numerous customers and enjoyed helping them achieve their real estate goals. I enjoy reading, camping, and spending time with family.
