Q: What made you interested in Real Estate?

A: I purchased my first home in 2019 as a single woman and I said everyone should do this. I began my real estate journey because I want to help the people that think buying a house is out of reach for them.

Q: What is the most interesting thing that happened during an open house you hosted?

A: I had music playing and it turned into a dance party.

Q: What was your favorite moment in your career so far?

A: My proudest moment was my first contract. She was a single mother who wanted to purchase a home but didn't know how to get started. It was the best feeling in the world to hand her the keys to her home.

Q: What do you wish you had known when you first got your real estate license?

A: Real estate had so many fees.

Q: In what ways have you seen the real estate industry change since you started?

A: Real estate is much more than showing a house. I've changed because with every transaction I learn something new and this has definitely broken up my routine.

Q: What’s the most challenging part of your job?

A: The most challenging part of the job is letting go of clients after you helped them sell or purchase a home. You spend a lot of time with clients and then all of a sudden it's over. I have great follow-up systems in place now. I also tell my clients they will never get rid of me.

Q: If you could sum up being a real estate agent in five words or less, what would you say?

A: Counselor who sells homes!
