1. Pre-underwrite, not just pre-qualify. Ask your lender for documented income/assets and a fully underwritten approval if possible—that’s almost as strong as cash. 2. Compare 3 quotes. Look at APR, points, and lender fees. Ask about permanent buydown vs. 2-1 buydown and break-even math. 4. Know your true monthly. Principal + interest + taxes + insurance (+ HOA/MUD/PID fees + PMI + flood if applicable). 5. Set ceilings. Pick an absolute max price and a “happy payment.” We’ll shop below the ceiling so you can compete confidently.

Start by owning the first impression: fresh paint where needed, clean landscaping, bright bulbs, tidy closets/garage, and a deep clean. Then price to the market, not to a wish—we’ll use the most similar closed sales + current actives/pending to set a number that attracts strong traffic in the first 10 days (that’s where leverage lives). Launch with pro photos/video + floor plan and clear highlights (upgrades, roof/HVAC ages, neighborhood amenities) so buyers—and their lenders/appraisers—see the value. Make showings easy and flexible the first two weekends and consider a well-timed open house. When offers come, remember terms matter: closing timeline, option period length, appraisal risk, and concessions. Often a slightly lower price with cleaner terms nets you more and reduces stress. I’ll manage prep, pricing, marketing, and negotiation so you sell quickly and confidently.

I work with military and physician relocations, first-time buyers, move-up and luxury clients, and downsizers throughout Fort Worth, Azle, and Aledo (Tarrant & Parker Counties). I regularly advise VA and physician-loan buyers, out-of-state relocations, and sell-to-buy situations that require tight timelines. Property types include single-family, townhome/condo, new construction, lake-area homes near Eagle Mountain Lake, and small-acreage options. I also support investors (long-term and, where permitted, short-term rentals) with neighborhood and ordinance insights. On the listing side, I help families prep, price, and market homes for top exposure with pro media and data-backed strategies. My approach is local, practical, and results-focused—so whether you’re relocating for the medical district/NAS JRB, upsizing, or right-sizing, you’ll get a plan that fits your budget, commute, schools, and weekend lifestyle.

I’m proud of a recent sell-and-buy for a family moving from Azle to Aledo. We prepped their Azle home (paint, lighting, curb appeal) and priced to today’s comps, then launched with pro media ahead of a weekend. After strong traffic, we negotiated a clean offer with a short leaseback, giving them time to close on their Aledo home without a storage unit or hotel stay. Zero double move, no overlap stress—just keys to keys.

Real estate started as a way to serve my community. After 10+ years in sales sharpening my negotiation skills, I moved into real estate through valuation work—completing BPOs and property condition reports across North Texas. That pricing foundation, paired with my Military Relocation Professional (MRP) training and modern marketing background, led me to launch the Sovereign Elite Group at Worth Clark. Today we help military, medical, and local families find the right fit in Fort Worth, Azle, and Aledo, with data-driven strategy, pro marketing, and calm, win-win negotiations. Through Homes for Heroes, we also give back to those who serve. People first, strategy always.

I’m trained in advanced real-estate negotiation—the practical stuff that wins offers and protects your net (pricing strategy, appraisal preparedness, timelines, and repair/credit negotiations). I also hold the Military Relocation Professional (MRP) designation, which helps military families navigate VA loans, PCS timing, and the nuances of base-area neighborhoods. My marketing background means your home launches with a plan: pro photos/video and a data-driven distribution mix (targeted social ads, retargeting, and email/SMS) so the right buyers see it fast. For buyers, that same market intel helps us identify value and structure compelling, low-risk terms. In short: strategy at the table, plus modern marketing that moves the needle in Fort Worth, Azle, and Aledo.
