🏠 Residential and Investment Properties

Paradise isn’t just a destination—it’s a lifestyle. As a dedicated real estate professional serving Anna Maria Island and the surrounding Southwest Florida coast, I help buyers, sellers, and investors find their perfect place in the sun. Whether you're searching for a luxury beachfront home, a vacation rental investment, or a forever home by the water, my goal is to make your real estate journey s

eamless, data-driven, and exciting. My entrepreneurial background has helped me understand the delicate balance of trusting your instincts while making informed, strategic decisions. I provide my clients with in-depth market insights, strong negotiation strategies, and a personal commitment to integrity and sincerity. My knowledge of the Anna Maria Island market—combined with the cutting-edge tools and support of Keller Williams—ensures that every transaction is handled with expertise and care. Having managed vacation rentals on Anna Maria Island for the past two years, I’ve gained firsthand experience navigating local zoning and building codes, making me a valuable resource for investors looking to maximize their returns. My passion for island living means I can also share insider tips on the best boating spots, restaurants, and activities that make this area truly special. Originally from Nebraska, my husband and I -along with our chocolate lab, Ziggy- traded cold winters for year-round sunshine, and we haven’t looked back! When I’m not helping clients find their dream home, you’ll find me boating along the Intracoastal, catching breathtaking Gulf sunsets, or giving back through local efforts to keep our beaches pristine. If you're ready to buy, sell, or invest in paradise, let’s connect!

This is one of my favorite home renovation projects so far! There are still a few things to finish, but it is feeling so cozy and functional now 😊

A few things that prompted this change and that we decided were right for us:
1️⃣ We couldn’t mount a TV over the original fireplace because it would be too high for the room size. This new layout puts the TV at the perfect height.
2️⃣ We loved the wood burning fireplace, but we decided we would never use it and opted for something that we would use all the time… AND we really have used the electric fireplace every night. 🔥
3️⃣ We wanted to run an Ethernet cable from the router so that we could get our stream via wired connection instead of wi-fi… AND it was so worth the extra effort!

What do you think? Have you adjusted your TV fireplace setup?

Just a little bit of that demo life lately 👷‍♀️🚧🔨

Shout out to and Brinley for making it look easy tearing all this out 💪

As fun as this part is, I’m getting a bit more excited to see all of the pieces in my head come together!

For now, I’m going to rest a bit. Have a great weekend everyone! ☀️

Here’s a look at the Holmes Beach and Bradenton Beach market over the last 10 years!

This is directly from the MLS and is filtered for zip code 34217 and single-family home / duplex style options.

The sold price per sqft number was technically at $541/sqft for July with 15 months of inventory. However, that number is a bit misleading because of the high number of storm-damaged homes still selling for well below market value. The trendline was showing more around $750/sqft prior to the Fall 2024 storms!

What do you think? Interesting?
