- Know your priorities (i.e. your wants vs needs, location, layout, schools, etc.) - Get pre-approved early - Understand the market, or call me to discuss how the market is currently - Buy long-term by considering your life in the home for the next 5-10 years

- Trust your agent's advice regarding pricing. Overpricing scares off serious buyers, causing your home to stay on the market longer. - Declutter and keep it clean during the showing period - Maximize your listing by reviewing your agent's property description and photos. Make sure that your home is showcased for it's unique features, upgrades and location benefits - Be flexible and responsive to agent's showing requests. Responding quickly to requests keeps the momentum going - Think like a buyer by stepping back and reviewing your home through fresh eyes - Only work with the best selling agent! Call me to discuss any part of the process!

I've worked and always enjoy helping all types of clients, but have a niche for clients who are divorcing, transitioning to elder care, families dealing with probate and those selling luxury homes.

In late 2024, I had the honor of helping Veteran buy a home. He was stationed in Kuwait and wanted to secretly purchase a home for his mother in Columbus. We managed to get it done, even though we were in different time zones and had issues with the initial lender. His mother was in shock when I told her the news! It was a great story that I'm happy to have documented it on video!

After working in marketing for nearly 2 decades, I decided to make a life change! I'd always been curious about the real estate industry, so I decided to take a leap of faith and jump in! I've been in this industry for over 10 years and truly love it!

I simultaneously scheduled real estate licensing classes while completing my Interior Design degree. I can now offer free "staging" support to my sellers, while helping other clients with their needs. Also, after graduating with a marketing degree from Ohio University, I worked in ad agencies, corporate marketing departments and local publications, which certainly continues to help me market the homes I sell and my personal real estate business.
