Coldwell Banker Bain Agent serving Washington State specializing in Thurston, Lewis, Mason, Pierce, Grays, Island and King Counties. My real estate philosophy is my life philosophy: Do great work, help people, create value and follow your truth. As a Coldwell Banker Bain (CBB) broker, I help clients balance their basic life needs with their larger wants, that which brings them joy and comfort. The
experience of real estate should be one of creation of both Home and also Value as one of the largest investment you'll make in this lifetime. Understanding the importance of these big life decisions, I work with clients with my head and my heart to help them create the Home they want to live in, while maximizing the monetary value of their decisions. Representation
In this competitive real estate market an agent cannot wait for opportunities to come to them, so I get up early and get to work every day to produce results through action. A top real estate agency thrives in a culture of skilled and experienced brokers, which CBB cultivates through constant learning and training opportunities, so our clients are protected from the surprises that can arise in a high-value, legal transaction. My goal is to over-communicate and over-prepare arriving at any negotiation with advantage to get a deal done and create a win-win for both buyer and seller. Expertise
The real estate market is hyper-local, seasonal and temperamental—in other words, it can change on a dime and be highly competitive. Technology has made information more accessible to everyone, but it can be difficult to keep up with recent events that affect home values. The benefits of working with a licensed real estate professional go far beyond what a mobile app, online video, or website can do. I have been trained to apply the newest technology AND the old school techniques to provide my clients with information relevant to what is happening in their specific neighborhood. This customized analysis includes recent comparable sales that factor into an offer and acceptance strategy so that my buyer clients WIN competitive bidding situations. For my sellers it's important to price property correctly to capture all available buyers, creating a competitive purchase that brings my clients a higher yield. Negotiations
Successful negotiations help move a conversation forward and transform the process into an agreement that’s a win for all parties. I keep my clients’ best interests top of mind as I negotiate on their behalf. Transactional Excellence
Creating a fulfilling real estate transaction is about creating trust, recognizing the pitfalls, asking the right questions and knowing what your clients truly want as an outcome to feel like a win. I am dedicated to transactional excellence for every listing and sale. What this means for you is that I oversee every detail of the real estate transaction. The transaction is far from over once an offer has been accepted. I monitor inspections, appraisals, title, escrow and loan processes. Communication and collaboration with all the agents and parties involved with the transaction ensures a smooth and timely closing. I am committed to my clients before, during and after a sale. Mindfulness
Along with advanced preparation, my continued training in holistic BE-ing practices give me the ability to take (most of) the stress out home transactions creating a process that is both enjoyable and satisfying. There’s nothing like a client saying, “That was easy!” to know that I’m doing my job as their agent. Part of home counseling includes helping clients tuning into what their ‘Best Life’ looks like, so we can eliminate those properties that won’t create that feeling of Home. In its most simple terms, Home is where you want to Be. This is the reason it’s so important to find the state of BE-ing while looking at property to buy and on the sell side, knowing how to create that feeling in others –through staging and photos your beautiful home.
