I grew up in the Valley since I was 9.  I loved horses then & I still have a horse, now.  I trained as a teacher but ended up in sales.  For 13 years I traveled extensively as a representative in the cosmetic & fashion industry. How did I get into Real Estate?  It just happened ... because my husband was in Real Estate.  It wasn't until I started working more on my own that I realized that it's not just about the money - it's about helping a client achieve their goals.  Whether it is easing the difficulty of a seller going through a short sale and protecting them from deficiency issues or helping a first time home buyer through the maze of options & restrictions on their purchase.  As with most endeavors, persistance pays off.  The feeling of shared accomplishment with clients is wonderful.

I am really amazed at the changes that have taken place in Real Estate! I work hard to keep up with it all.  I've taken 3 times the number of renewal classes required because I can't stand "not knowing what's going on"!  I even went back to school & got a Multi-Media degree so I could keep up with the technology and know how to expose my seller's homes on every website & media that I can.

So I'm learning the new "Normal" in our current market place.  First it was REOs (foreclosures), then Short sales, then HUD homes and now I am trained on doing Seller Financing with Carrybacks and Mortgage Wraps.  I sure something else is coming soon & when it does I'll "have to know how it works"!
