What do you most enjoy about your work?

I love the opportunity I have to participate in connecting a person with the best possible real estate experience. So many times I pick up the phone and think, “I’m SO GLAD you called us!” and I MEAN IT.

What attracted you to the industry?

I like all of the things Realtors aren’t supposed to like – contracts, data, negotiations, surprises… I love dealing with the unexpected AND turning it into a positive for someone else.

In your opinion, what is the ONE most important quality a client should look for in a Realtor?

Honesty. Anyone can tell you what you want to hear. A realtor that tells you what you NEED to hear is someone who is looking out for YOUR interests, not their own.

What are the most popular amenities buyers are currently seeking in a home?

Right now I feel like buyers are wanting all of the amenities (granite counters, hardwood floors, tile in bath, media stations) that they’re seeing in new construction, but they’re rejecting the cookie cutter feel of those planned subdivisions. I think this could provide a unique opportunity to those in older homes if they’re willing and able to do some updates.

Favorite Southern style meal or dish to make?

I love a traditional southern chocolate cake (yellow cake with chocolate icing, and like 10 small layers)

Favorite Huntsville activity and best kept secret “must go to?”

We have a GREAT arts community here, go see a play, take in a concert, go to an art exhibit – you’ll be amazed at the talent we have locally!
