What do you like most about real estate?

It is a privilege and a pleasure to see the joy my clients experience when they know they have found their dream home.

How do you differentiate yourself from the competition?

I believe in traditional methods of selling your home: having beautiful photographs, showing it with enthusiasm to prospective buyers, staying apprised with the competition, and all of the proven techniques that go into selling a home at the highest possible price.

Who inspires you right now?

The people of Ukraine.

Best thing about 2022?

The excitement and challenges of a robust spring housing market. The year began with low inventory on the North Shore, and was out paced by increased demand. Many multiple offers and lower interest rates drove the prices up.

Most looking forward to in 2023?

A more balanced and “back to normal” housing market.
