How long have you been a REALTOR®? 12 years Favorite room in your house and why? My favorite room in our home isn’t really “in” our home, but it’s our three-season porch at our home at Harker’s Island. I enjoy relaxing on the porch while watching the beautiful view of the water. It’s the perfect place to relax and rewind from a stressful week.

If you could offer one tip for buyers? Persistence pays off. Sometimes it takes multiple tries/offers before having your offer accepted. Trust the advice of your agent when making an offer on a home. Purchasing a home is an investment. Don’t make an emotional decision, but rather make your decision about making an offer on a home based on market data regarding the property’s value. If you could offer one tip for sellers? Listen to the advice of an experienced agent when determining the listing price for your home. An experienced agent will help you determine the best listing price based on current market conditions and comparable sales data. Pricing your home correctly from the start helps you achieve the best results when your home hits the market. If the home is priced correctly, you will receive more interest from more potential buyers, which will likely result in multiple, quality offers in our current market. If the home is priced too high, you will likely have less showings, leading to your home staying on the market longer.
