I was born on the East Coast & into a family that has always been a part of the Real Estate industry. In the late 80's my family moved to the San Juan Islands here in Washington State to get away from the hustle & bustle. By the time I was 17, I was helping manage my family's vacation rentals on Orcas Island. After high school came a move to Bellingham to attend college and by 2004, I was licensed Real Estate agent in the state of Washington.
I'm so passionate about the real estate industry, it's in my blood with my mother being a REALTOR when I grow up, my father is a real estate attorney & older brother owning a very successful design build company I really could not imagine doing anything else! I love nothing more than helping my clients find that perfect home, handing over the keys on closing day & seeing the excitement on their faces or being there to help my sellers navigate getting their property ready to list & SOLD so they can move on to the next chapter in their life! I truly love building that relationship with my clients, taking the best care of my them and helping with all their real estate needs for many years to come....that's what it's all about for me!
I've called Bellingham home for the last 20+years and I'm thankful my husband & I get to raise my two daughters in such a treasure of a town! We love sunny days in Fairhaven, bluebird days up at Mt. Baker & enjoying a yummy bite & beer with friends at Kulshan Brewery! Summertime we love to visit the San Juan Island for days filled with boating, fishing & crabbing...it's always an amazing time!
Needless to say, I LOVE living in the Northwest and all that it has to offer.......I wouldn't raise my daughters anywhere else! I hope that when the time comes that you're ready to explore PNW Real Estate, you'll reach out to me. I'm always here to help!!
Representation
I take pride in offering high-caliber full-service residential real estate expertise. My clients are my top priority, and I focus on delivering the best possible results for them.
Expertise
The real estate market is hyperlocal, seasonal and temperamental—in other words, it can change on a dime. Technology has made information more accessible to everyone, but it can be difficult to keep up with recent events that affect home values. The benefits of working with a licensed real estate professional go far beyond what a mobile app, online video, or website can do.
I provide my clients with information on market seasonality and information relevant to what is happening in their specific neighborhood. This customized analysis includes recent comparable sales that factor into an offer and acceptance strategy.
Negotiations
Successful negotiations help move a conversation forward and transform the process into an agreement that’s a win for all parties. Negotiation is not only a skill, but a mindset. I keep my clients’ best interests top of mind as I negotiate on their behalf.
Transactional Excellence
I am dedicated to transactional excellence for every listing and sale. What this means for you is that I oversee every detail of the real estate transaction. The transaction is far from over once an offer has been accepted. I monitor inspections, appraisals, title, escrow and loan processes. Communication and collaboration with all the partners and parties involved with the transaction ensures a smooth and timely closing. I am committed to my clients before, during and after a sale.
