How Can I Help Sell Your Home?

Chances are, if you've lived in your home for more than a few years, you can likely turn a tidy profit. That's great news! But sealing the deal requires more than just a handshake. You'll have to consider if now's a good time to sell? What's the best way to get the word out? How do you get top dollar for your property? These are just some of the questions that I can help answer!

Okanagan Valley

I love living in the Okanagan and enjoy everything this beautiful region has to offer. Each and every day I admire the spectacular backdrop of lake views, vineyards, orchards, sandy beaches and world-class skiing.

As a result of this passion, combined with my industry knowledge and years of experience, I am well-qualified to assist you with all your real estate needs. Serving the entire Okanagan Valley, I gladly travel from Armstrong in the North to Peachland in the South including Kelowna, Vernon and everywhere in between!

Personal Background

Real Estate has always been my passion.  Since I was a little girl, I knew that I wanted to be a REALTOR®.  While other kids were reading Goosebumps and comics, I was flipping through The Real Estate Book.  When the internet was introduced into our home, MLS.ca was our homepage.  On weekends, I'd wander through open houses. 

I purchased my first home in Vernon at 19, the legal age allowed in BC.  My family always told me, "If we can give you one piece of advice, buy Real Estate young."  Because of that experience, I feel adequately prepared to assist other young first time buyers.

When you enlist the help of an expert REALTOR®, you're not just gaining support to buy or sell a house – you're gaining an ally who'll help you make the most out of your home. REALTORS® can guide you through every step of the process, explain the current market, help navigate complex paperwork and offer invaluable advice. When you're ready to make a move, get a REALTOR®.

Professional Background

During High School, I was offered an assistant position with a well-established, top-producing Real Estate Team in Kelowna.  The experience I received was invaluable.  After graduation, I was working full-time in the business, meeting with clients, taking photos of listings, installing For Sale signs, creating brochures, going over contracts and sorting through paperwork. 

While studying for the Real Estate exam, I also enrolled at Okanagan College and received a Certificate in Interior Decorating, allowing me to offer suggestions on furniture placement and visualizing your new space.  It's a little added "extra" that I hope you can benefit from!

Is your home too 'cluttered' to sell? Using your existing furniture and maybe a can of paint, we can transform your space to attract Buyers - not deter them. My education in staging and redesign will help transform your home from unsellable to SOLD!

Specialties

First Time Buyers

Unlike renting, buying a home is an investment that can appreciate over time, providing you with financial security later on in life.  It will probably be the most substantial purchase you'll ever make.

The satisfaction of making the 'big buy' can sometimes be spoiled by the confusion and hassle that comes along with it.  I make it my duty to keep you well-informed, throughout the entire process.  I'll take extra special care of you from beginning to end!

I haven't forgotten what it felt like to purchase my first home; I can relate to your fears and be patient while you explore the joys of home ownership.


Horse Properties

The Okanagan is a wonderful place for horse people!  We have beautiful trails throughout our local mountains, and the popular Mission Creek Greenway trail is open to riders as well.  Being an Equestrian myself, I am educated in horse ownership and have ridden for years in both English and Western.  I understand the features a property must have to accommodate horses.  For example, did you know that the rule-of-thumb is typically no more than 2 horses per acre?

If you're new to the wonderful world of horses, feel free to send me an email or give me a quick call - I'd be glad to put you in touch with some great trainers in the area.

Why I Work By Referral

Relationsips are more important than transactions!

You may have noticed that many real estate agents take a transactional approach to sales—identifying clients, closing the deal, and then moving on to the next one. I choose not to work that way because I believe you deserve more from the professional you decide to work with. That is why I work by referral.

Since my primary source of new business are referrals from people who know and trust me, I can dedicate my time fully to the activities that benefit you most, and always deliver truly exceptional service.

Smarter. Bolder. Faster.
