Drawing on 31 years of the Financial, Real Estate and Teaching Industries I use my rich and diverse knowledge to help clients go smoothly through their home purchase or sale. First time home buyer, investor or seller, I use my skills to meet my clients’ needs, turning any challenges into opportunities. My network of professionals, offers a strong team approach of honesty and integrity to insure my clients’ best interests are met. My work ethic drives me to help buyers find their home oasis.
Everyday technology is more and more taking the place of human interaction. Building a strong personal relationship is crucial to satisfying today’s information savvy clients. Buyers and Sellers have unlimited access to information, what I do is identify and connect them with the best matches for them. Whether it’s ranch land with farm animals, Estate living with golf courses and trails, or in town living there’s a place for you!
My husband, Jared, and I moved to Ramona in 1992 and have renovated and built over the years to creat our oasis. If you are searching for land to build from scratch, an existing home to make your own, or just need assistance in staging your property, I will help you with patience and professionalism.
When not hard at work, I enjoy being with friends and family. Having them at our home, us at their home or out experiencing the delicious local wines of Ramona’s Wineries. I am an active member of the community I live in. I understand the importance of helping out, volunteering and fund raising for youth programs; softball, football, baseball, wrestling, soccer, martial arts. You may also find my family and I enjoying time together with our dog, Jager, or riding our beach cruisers.
