That's me! I'm the very own marketing director! 😀

As a Colorado real estate agent, I’ve witnessed firsthand the transformative power of social media in our industry. In a world where 90% to 99% of people begin their home search online, leveraging social media has become a non-negotiable for real estate professionals. But how do you navigate this ...

So you wanna buy a fixer-upper? Let me tell you ALLLL about it. 🤓

In March of 2022, a bored 23-year-old impulse-shopped on Zillow and accidentally bought a house. It was me. I was the bored 23-year-old. I wanted to buy a house, and I had all my finances in order… I just wasn’t prepared to pull the trigger on a fixer-upper sight unseen. The object of my misguid...

I can't believe you thought I abandoned my photo series idea. How dare you. Clearly, the animals love me, and I could never break their little, furry hearts like that.

Don't get me wrong... As a professional, I'm stoked Robert Gash, ALC - Western Land & Lifestyle Properties put their farm under contract. But as a sentimental girly with a soft spot for elderly animals, I wish they could come live in my duplex. The invitation still stands.

My new blog post is all about implementing proactive marketing strategies to drive the right traffic to specialty real estate listings. Check it out! 😀

Specialty real estate appeals to a unique subset of buyers. Whether you’re selling a luxury or historic home, an off-grid property, a massive equestrian ranch, or another type of property that falls outside the home-in-town criteria, buyers exist who are looking for exactly what you’re offering....

On Monday, I had my first closing as a buyers' agent, and I couldn't have asked for a better team with whom to cross the finish line! Thank you to my incredible buyers for allowing me to represent you. After months on the ground, we found the perfect house, and I can't wait to see how you turn it into a home. Second, thank you to Kelly Landen at Norris-Snell Real Estate and her sellers for being efficient and communicative, ensuring a smooth transaction. Of course, I couldn't have done it without my dad and managing broker, Robert Gash, ALC - Western Land & Lifestyle Properties, guiding me from offer to closing. I'm learning from the best in the biz.

I love what I do at United Country Real Estate Western Land & Lifestyle Properties. If you're looking at properties in Western Colorado this year, I would love to work with you too. Who wants to do me the honor of my second closing representing buyers?

This week, I attended a real estate training, and the instructor asked us to think about our "Why?" – "Why did you get into real estate?" For me, it's always been about marketing. Exercising my creative muscles daily to promote our listings and help our brokers promote themselves. Finding new ways to authentically engage our community and share this beautiful place we call home.

Beyond being an Associate Broker at United Country Real Estate Western Land & Lifestyle Properties, I am even more proud to be our Marketing Director. Even though I'll go to my grave swearing I'm not a nepo baby, I am so thankful to my dad, Robert Gash, ALC - Western Land & Lifestyle Properties, for giving me this opportunity. 🤍

Growing up, people always touted the adage, "Find a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life." I never believed it. I thought you worked for money and used your free time to do what you love. Then, I started this job, and, even though I work 24/7, I LOVE what I do so much, it never feels like work.

Sentimental yikes. Big sorry, guys. Apparently, the passion is firey today. Check out my new blog post if you want to read something less gushy and more technical regarding our real estate marketing strategy. 👀

Over the past decade, digital transformation has created a closer relationship between marketing and sales, especially in real estate. Whereas it was once a real estate broker’s primary responsibility to run local ads in the paper and show people properties, we now can reach millions of people onl...

I don't know what about some of these Western Colorado properties makes me a little less soured on the idea of forever... enough to write a blog post, at the very least. 👻
