Introduction:

Buying and selling homes involves understanding a client’s needs and wants, market knowledge, negotiations, inspections & disclosures, legal  & financial issues, and processing a great deal of paperwork.  When clients hire me to represent them in their real estate transactions, they not only get an experienced Realtorâ, but also a counselor, a negotiator, a project coordinator, a business administrator, and an Accredited Real Estate Professional Stager.  I’m also a member of both Nevada County and Placer County Multiple Listing Services (MLS)

Background:

I began my business experience in 1962 in Southern California as a secretary and, in time, moved into managerial and administrative positions and then had my own business doing bookkeeping/secretarial work as an outside contractor.  I learned very quickly how to fine-tune my innate organization skills, and I discovered that I enjoy paperwork and attention to detail.  I received a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology in 1987, a Masters degree in Marriage & Family Therapy in 1989 and, in 1992, became a California-licensed psychotherapist. 

Living in Lake of the Pines:

In 2000, my husband Tye and I discovered the Sierra Foothills and Lake of the Pines.  It was “love at first sight.”  We found a house, bought it, moved in and started remodeling. I became involved in several bridge groups, the Bear River Garden Club, and the Firebelles  (LOP fundraiser women’s group).  I also served on the LOP Sports Lounge Renovation Committee and the LOP Long-Range Planning Committee.

Summary:

My background as an administrator, secretary and bookkeeper, and counselor prepared me well for the field of real estate in that it gives me a unique point of reference which results in positive home buying and/or selling experiences for my clients.  I would be honored to help you buy and/or sell a home.  Please give me a call so we can set up an initial interview to discuss your real estate needs.  I work for referrals so you can count on great service.
