I will give you reliable information and solid advice so that you can make informed decisions. Please don't hesitate to ask questions during any part of the process.

I will work for your best interests at every stage of the home selling process, from the development and implementation of a Marketing Plan, through the negotiation of purchase offers, to the final settlement of the transaction.

Communication is important. We will want to agree to a system of regular contacts (whether in person, on the phone or e-mail) so I can keep you up-to-date on the progress of the transaction. You will always communicate with me directly regarding any question you may have during the entire process.

I have a strong knowledge of the community and surrounding areas as a 6 year resident of Chicago, a 36 year resident of Hawthorn Woods and 12 year tenure on the Hawthorn Woods Women’s Club Board of Directors.

Outside of real estate, my personal background offers an advanced business degree - MBA - as well as experience in Corporate Marketing and strategic planning expertise.

“[In a home] You’re making an investment in what could be the most important asset you’ll ever have. The right moment is when you know where you’re going to live for a while, when you find the home that fits your family, and when it’s at level that fits in with your income and ability to make a down payment and then I would get a very long mortgage… 30-year mortgage and the rate will be fabulous, and there is no sense waiting if those conditions exist."
