How did you get involved in Real Estate?It had always been in the back of my mind tobe a Realtor. I loved showing new transfereeshomes that were available for them for thecompany my husband works for. The summermy in-laws became ill, I spent a great deal oftime with them on their road to recovery.With the job I had at the time, I couldn’t taketime off to be available when they neededme. I took the big step, changed careers andbecame a Realtor. It has afforded me theopportunity to be on call for aging parentsand new Grandbabies.

Why choose to become a Realtor?I love being around people and I love helpingpeople. One of the greatest joys is seeing myclients faces light up when they find that specialhome. Whether it is a first time buyer or a couplefinding their retirement home, their smiles givethem away. Another reason I became a Realtor isbecause I know what it is like to be transferred. Iwant my clients to be at peace with the wholesituation of moving whether they are sellers orbuyers.

Do most buyers know where they wantto live before you help in their search?It depends upon the buyers. I guess I wouldrelate a buyer to a snowflake – no two are alike.Most of the time my buyers have done theirresearch on the web before calling me whenthey want the "goods" on a home. When I sitdown initially with them, we go over where theywant to live, the school district they want theirchildren to attend and how close to work theywant to be. We then look at the homes they havefound and want to see. I also show them housesthey may not know about that would fit all theirneeds.

What do you do when you are notshowing or listing homes?To be honest, I don’t have enough time to enjoyto the fullest my loves outside of real estate. Myfirst love is my Husband and Grandchildren. Ilove the outdoors and activities that keep meoutside, like golf, fishing, walking and gardening.Canadian fishing is the best. When time permits,I enjoy yoga.
