What do you like most about real estate?
My clients; hands down. Seeing their happiness and their lives built in the homes we buy and sell together is very special.
How do you differentiate yourself from the competition?
I’m not looking just to list a home—I’m looking to sell it. So, if a seller if unrealistic I am honest with them. That’s what my job is—to educate people on the market and get the home sold. My Days on Market in 2022 was eight days and 100.1 percent List to Sales Price ratio—I think that proves my honesty with my clients.
Who inspires you right now?
My children. They inspire me every day.
Best thing about 2022?
Professionally, it was my best year yet—a 53 percent increase in sales year over year. The Hinsdale market was down by 13 percent, which means I outperformed the market by 66 percent.
Most looking forward to in 2023?
More inventory, lower mortgage rates, and making memories with friends and family!
