Real estate experience: Since 2000 have been cited by the Indpls Business Journal one of Top 200 agents of approx 8,000 agents in Metropolitan Indpls Board of Realtors based on number of houses sold and dollar volume. Twice been No. 1 buyers' agent for all of FC Tucker, the largest real estate company in Indiana Been in Top 10 of buyers & sellers several times.
Mission: Top quality service and communication. Want my buyers and sellers to understand the buying and selling process as well as I do. I provide weekly service reports for my sellers so they can understand what is happening and what I am doing for them.
For buyers, search areas, am willing to work days, nights, weekends. Enjoy MATCHING, not selling, real estate. I educate buyers on the market; they fine-tune me so we can find the right fit.
Team: Work w/ my husband, Mike, who has 25 years of banking, investment experience. He has lived through 20 years of active buying & selling real estate with me. Is as customer-oriented as I am. We try to fit your schedule, not ours.
Sell a house every 4 days. What does that mean to you? If you are a buyer, I know how to get what you want. In any negotiation, it often must be a win-win to work. If it doesn't cost you to give the seller what (s)he wants and you get what you want, it's a win. If you are the seller, my experience helps you put your home on the market in the right condition at the right price for a quicker, higher sale. Knowing the market is my forte.
