Real estate is my full-time business and my passion. I am deeply committed to serving your needs -- focusing on your goals, explaining your options, and providing you with the information you need to make informed decisions. My goal is your total satisfaction, your referrals, and your repeat business. 

Formerly an art consultant and an award-winning Producer/Director in radio and television broadcast, I bring highly tuned skills to my real estate business. I pay infinite attention to details, deadlines, and your needs. Additionally, as a trained Re-evaluation Counselor, I have well-honed listening and problem-solving skills. I'm results oriented and an innovative thinker. I love what I do and I take great pride (and receive much joy!) in matching you with the home of your dreams...or the perfect investment property.  

I run my business almost exclusively by referrals from people I have served. I use my energies on my most important goal: serving your needs. You see, most real estate agents spend the majority of their time marketing to the general public looking for new business and very little time helping their customers. Working by referral allows me to invest my time serving you. Because your complete satisfaction and subsequent referrals are the basis for my future business, you can be assured that I will provide you with the highest level of service -- with heart, humor, and effectiveness. 

It's an odd concept in this industry, I know, but I do take a day off every week! By taking care of myself, I can take better care of you. As a result, my clients are satisfied and happy -- we have fun in the process of buying and selling their home! That's what I strive for in every real estate transaction I'm involved in. 

In 2002, I was awarded the Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR®) designation. The ABR® designation is the benchmark of excellence in buyer representation. This coveted designation is awarded to real estate practitioners by the Real Estate BUYER'S AGENT Council ("REBAC") of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® who meet the specified educational and practical experience criteria. 

I am committed to continuing my education and staying updated with current trends and issues in real estate. I am a Certified Residential Specialist (CRS®), the highest designation awarded to sales associates in the residential sales field. This designation recognizes professional accomplishments in both experience and education. Only 5 percent of all REALTORS® have earned this prestigious credential. The education received in order to earn this designation is considered "top shelf" and that benefits my clients! CRS® designees were involved in nearly 25 percent of all residential real estate transactions in the United States last year. As a Council member, I get information about the latest sales and marketing techniques, and changes in the law that benefit home buyers and sellers.  

Last year, I began studying for my Broker's License. 120 clock hours in course work is required to complete this intensive training including studies in real estate law, brokerage management and business management. A challenging and exciting course of study, to be sure! By on-going training in my industry, I can better serve you -- which is my number one goal. 

In July, 2006, I proudly added Certified EcoBroker to my Professional Designations. To earn the EcoBroker designation, an agent completes extensive coursework that covers issues of energy, environment and green business. These skills and knowledge can assist any consumer, both those who consider themselves "green-minded" and those who do not. By providing the link between builders, consumers, and green products, EcoBrokers are likely to play an increasingly vital role in the evolving industry of sustainable home design. My training will allow me to serve Buyers in identifying green and energy-efficient features in a home. The EcoBroker advantage for Sellers is my ability to identify, explain and market the energy-efficient features in your home -- all which add value when it comes to pricing and selling your property. 

When I can be of service to you and yours, please call or email me. I would love to earn the right to do business with you and serve you in what is likely to be one of the most important decisions in your life! 

From the Mountains to the Sound, "Stick with Stone" for excellence and results. You'll be glad you did.
