“I’m here for you. How can I help?”
As a top producing, full-time professional realtor with John L. Scott and an industry expert for the last 15 plus years, these words are how my relationships with hundreds of sellers, buyers, investors, and transferees have begun. Their reply is the foundation that’s built upon to achieve their highest and best outcomes.
I feel honored and proud to serve as a trusted advisor as my clients’ lives evolve. I’ve had the privilege of helping my clients buy and sell homes because they are changing jobs, getting married or unmarried, having babies, downsizing, retiring, and everything in between. I feel honored to have done as many as six or seven or more transactions with some of them. I’ve been told that what sets me apart from other agents is my ability to envision the “big picture” and my intuition. The key is anticipating challenges and finding creative solutions. While I possess strong negotiation, communication, and education skills, and I have a profound knowledge of the Eastside market, most of my business comes from past clients because they trust me and can count on me to take care of them. Period.
I am a firm believer that there is a lid for every pot. The right home at the right time is out there for my home buyer. The right buyer at the right time is out there for my home seller. Together, we discover the right fit.
A Top Performer
My verified reviews and sales record speak for themselves. I am a 10 time winner of Seattle Magazine’s Five Star Agent Award (2008-2018). There are not many of us. For 15 years I have earned top honors including, most recently, John L. Scott Chairman’s Circle. I am affiliated with John L. Scott Redmond, the #1 office in our local market and in our entire company, with the highest per capita production per agent. Our collaborative and supportive office culture fosters early insights into the market, allowing us to act proactively rather than reactively, which creates a big advantage for my clients.
Custom Tailored Strategies for Our Success
One thing is for sure: the market is constantly changing. The key is STAYING AHEAD of it. How? I do it by being informed, aware, flexible, and open to change.
The creative strategies that I employed at the bottom of the market when every other home was a short sale and the economic outlook was bleak are obviously starkly different from the strategies I employed during rah-rah times when even the most decrepit home was guaranteed to receive multiple offers. And, of course, the definition of a successful transaction is quite different in such different markets. Thus, I custom tailor my strategies to my clients’ objectives, with a keen awareness of the market we are operating in. That means taking myriad variables into consideration including larger economic trends, seasonality, and neighborhood-specific news. For sellers, it means assistance with home preparation, professional photography, advertising and specialized marketing that incorporates a strong social media presence.
Working with buyers and sellers alike, I never underestimate the importance of truly knowing our counterparts. In other words, who are the agent and buyer or seller sitting across the metaphorical table from us, these people with whom we are meant to cooperate in order to make a mutually successful transaction? My objective is to treat all parties fairly.
Relocation
As a member of the John L. Scott relocation team since 2010, I have served countless international and domestic executive transferees employed by organizations as diverse as Microsoft, Amazon, Starbucks, L’Oreal, McDonalds, and the US State Department. Having experienced the client side firsthand when I moved to Seattle in 1996 as part of a Microsoft relocation, I’m particularly sensitive to the complexities of corporate relocation. I know how much smoother the process can be with a trusted advisor by your side. I am that trusted advisor.
