Selling real estate on the North Shore since 1992!
My main goal is to educate buyers and sellers so they are 100% confident with the decisions they make, whether buying or selling. There is so much information on-line today agents need to bring more to the table than just showing properties or taking a listing. Analyzing conflicting data for a purchase or designing a specific website for a listing which may draw a buyer in - even before viewing the property - are all tools I bring to the table. Each contract negotiation brings its own unique challenges - and has to be handled as such.
Owning a home may be the single largest investment an individual makes in their life and I am intensely aware of the importance of this item in their portfolio and in the emotional aspect of their lives. I bring hard work, honesty and a real love of what I do to each and every transaction.
Growing up in the Midwest and living in Lake Forest for over 40 years I have a special fondness for this area. Raising three children in both the public and private school systems and being involved in numerous charitable organizations, where I sit now as a sustainer, has brought a distinct perspective on living in Lake Forest and the North Shore lifestyle.
I have sold small condos as well as homes on Lake Michigan, each equally important to me, as they are to the seller or buyer. With a strong, on-the-ground local team behind me, all clients receive immediate, personable, and knowledgeable assistance.
I am proud of the many referrals I receive from my clients and the numerous repeat buyers and sellers that have honored me over the years with their trust.
