Hi everyone! Thanks for checking out my first real estate Blog. As the market and industry continues to evolve, I strive to stay on top of all the latest trends. And blogging seems to be one of the latest and greatest of these trends...and what a great way to reach Buyers and Sellers in the Triangle in a nice, informal, "really get to know me" way!

I have been a REALTOR since 2003. I purchased my first home in 2001 and had a HORRIFIC experience!! The agent I used treated me like a nuisance and tried to brush me off numerous times...before I even even closed on my house he said he really didn't have anything more to do with the transaction and I no longer had to contact him! I thought - are you kidding me?!?!!! Once everything FINALLY closed I continued to obsess over my ordeal. It just didn't seem right. I mean surely there was a better way to work with clients and help them with what should be an exciting time! After driving my friends crazy with my obsession and tips now that they were buying their first homes, one finally suggested I get my license. It was clear that I had a passion for real estate and a strong desire to do a better job for others than someone did (or more to the point, didn't!) do for me. And that, my friends, is how it all began! It was one of the best decisions of my life! A job isn't everything but boy it sure helps to really LOVE what you do like I do!

As I get started with different blog topics, if any of you have any real estate questions, specific or general, I want you to feel free to contact me. I will be happy to post your questions along with my reply on my real estate blog. (Unless, of course, you have a more personal question regarding real estate, I will respectively reply in private.) Often times people have the same questions but just don't know who to ask. Now you have that forum! Let's get going!
