My Story
I am a life long resident of Burlington, Ontario. I Know my market. Contantly previewing and selling homes in the Burlington area since 1992 provides me with a tremendous knowledge of my local area and sets me apart as an expert.
I am a full time agent. Real Estate sales is my livelyhood.
I am proud of my ability to match my clients to their "dream" home. I pride myself in my ability to build relationships, and spend the time necessary with each and every client in order to have them reach their goals.
I have a strong interest in anything arts related. I belong to a variety of clubs and organizations. Photography, Classical Music, Opera, Hiking, art classes, fine art , and making mixed media art all keep me busy in my "spare" time.
I have a Teaching Degree from college and spent 15 years in the Early Childhood Education field. Five years in Sales and Marketing prepared me for my favourite career Real Estate Sales.
I have worked hard to retain my past clients as my future clients.
I must say I am proud of my accomplishments and look forward to many more years in the business I love the most. .. The Real Estate Business.
On a personal note I have moved to a dream location (in my humble opinion ) Just 5 minutes from Burlington is a newly developing area. Historically 'The Beach Strip' was a cottage location for upper crust folks from nearby areas. After experiencing a bit of a 'dive' in pricing/desirablity it is in a major upswing.
Areas of Expertise
Specializing in the Burlington market provides the best service to my clients. I am constantly updating my resources in order to provide the best possible information to my clients.
As a full time sales representative I am always keeping myself aware of changes in both real estate business and the changing market we are experiencing in 2009. Having thrived in the 1990's down turn I am profficient in the strategies necessary for today. My clients benefit from not only my market knowledge but my familiarity with Burlington and surrounding areas.
Buying a home in todays market requires a fair amount of research in order to make an informed decision.
I do that research. I keep my buyer clients totally updated on the changing market. My daily emails /updates are essential to making that buying decision.
