FAQ
I’d guide a buyer to begin with a strong mortgage pre-approval. Having a clear strategy in place before the process heats up provides both the knowledge and confidence needed to move forward with a purchase.
The best advice for a seller is to choose a Realtor based on experience, local market knowledge, and a proven track record. Look for someone who communicates clearly, understands your goals, and can explain their pricing and marketing strategy with confidence. A strong agent should be able to demonstrate how they’ll position your home competitively and guide you through each step of the selling process. Realtors should be able to assist with any challenges throughout the sale process. Appraisal shortfalls, Negotiating multiple offers, Strategies for reverse prospecting and problem solving may become part of the journey. An experienced Realtor will know how to aid with navigating to overcome potential issues.
After over 33 years, I have had the privilege of working with four generations of wonderful families, with referrals forming the foundation of my business. I serve a wide range of clients—from first-time buyers experiencing the excitement of their very first purchase to families navigating more emotional transitions, including downsizing and moving a loved one into senior housing.
I also bring experience in new construction through years working with a local builder. Whether it’s a cozy cabin in the woods, securing that serene piece of hunting land, a city condo, or a multi-million-dollar custom lake home, I am here to help. No matter the Real Estate need, I strive to treat every client as if they are my one and only concern. Attention to detail matters, and I am committed to delivering a personalized, high-level experience every step of the way.
A fellow colleague asked me to assist with their client’s family member. He was not licensed in Wisconsin. Interestingly, the opportunity involved a property that had previously been listed with another broker and had expired after nearly 6 months of being rejected. I met with the homeowners the very next day to walk through the property and share recommendations on how to better position it in the market. I coordinated a few trusted resources to refresh the exterior—cleaning up the grounds, trimming overgrown shrubbery and retouching some landscaping which allowed so much more natural light into the home. These updates cost less than $500 and made a significant impact on the photos as well as the home. With a few additional staging suggestions, the home was back on the market and sold within a week, generating multiple interested parties. Ultimately, the sellers received 10% more than their previous listing price and the sale moved them smoothly back to Minnesota. That experience not only delivered a strong result but also built lasting relationships—this family, and their extended network, have since become some of my strongest supporters. Thank you Gordon!
My background is in marketing, and I quickly realized I was not meant for a traditional 9-to-5 job behind a desk. I’ve always been high-energy, active, and drawn to creative work—especially graphics, creativity, negotiation and strategies. I loved staging. That passion led me to pursue my real estate license in 1993, and I’ve never looked back. Over the years, my business has continued to grow, and I’ve had the privilege of helping so many wonderful families along the way. I don’t view real estate as just a job or even a career—it’s truly a lifestyle.
