My goal is to guarantee that your home buying or selling experience is a seamless process and armed My nest includes my husband and two young daughters.

With over a decade of experience serving clients in the Denver metropolitan area, I have successfully sold homes for developers, investors and individual clients. My knowledge on selling has provided equal success in securing homes for those clients on the buying side. My extensive background spans through a diverse variety in real estate, including suburban new construction, fix-n-flips, high-end

urban infill (24 Walnut Townhomes), short sales and investment properties. As the Sales and Marketing Manager for a Colorado developer (07-09), I was able to hone my skills in negotiating, marketing properties, HOA management and title/closing. In the economic downturn I sold multiple fix-n-flips for the #1 foreclosure investor and most recently transitioned to 8z from a small boutique firm, having been one of their top agents. I feel so fortunate to do what I love as a Realtor in such a beautiful city that changes as fast its weather. My goal is to guarantee that your home buying or selling experience is a seamless process and armed with the latest technology and market data, I am able to deliver. My tireless work ethic and attention to detail earns respect from every client.

8z provides a unique one-stop-shop experience and I am excited to be a part of a team that is positively impacting real estate one zip code at a time. I am a proud Buffalo Alumna, earning my Marketing degree from the University of Colorado (Boulder). As an active member in the community, my affiliations include: Denver Board of Realtors, the National Association of Realtors, Denver Mod Moms Philanthropy, and Wellshire Ladies Sunrise Golf. I love living in Denver and in my free time you can find me in the mountains, running, road biking, or golfing. I look forward to assisting you in your next real estate endeavor.

Hey buyers, ever heard of an “off-market” property? Spoiler alert! It’s something you’re going to want to know about.

“Off-market” properties are for sale but aren’t listed on multiple listing services. The benefit? They give you additional inventory, more opportunities to save (when commission is low), and a chance to sidestep the competition.

Curious to see a list of off-market properties near you? DM me, and I'll send it over!

If a kitchen reno is top of mind this November, you might as well explore all your options! Here are a few smart home hacks you may want to use as inspiration from adventurous others who’ve gone before you:

🔹 Consider garages for your appliances. Cabinets to hide appliances are a sleek and smart way to keep your kitchen looking and feeling oh-so tidy.
🔹 Consider installing a pot filler. You can fill pots with water right at the stove, or even install a pot filler above your pet's water bowls for ultimate convenience!
🔹Put that island to work for all things, including as a home base for appliances like a dishwasher, especially if your sink is also on the island).
🔹 Don’t put that cutting board away — give it its own drawer right over the trash can, for Pete’s sake!

Wondering what happens during a seller consult? Simple - I'll listen, learn, and strategize so we can get your house sold!

Plan on lots of questions coming your way so I can get to know you and your property. Questions like:

1. Why are you moving? How soon will you need to move?
2. What do you love about your home? What would you change?
3. What is most important to you: getting the highest price or selling in the shortest amount of time? (I'm pretty sure we can both!)
4. What selling price would thrill you? Discourage you?
5. Are there any nuisances or fussy neighbors to note?
6. Any current or past problems with the home? Lead paint or other disclosures?
7. Have you completed major renovations or upgrades? When?
8. What agent services are most important to you?

We’ll also talk prep, staging, pricing, and marketing. If it sounds like a lot, don't worry! You just show up, and I'll handle the rest.

Ready to get started? DM me, and let’s find a time to connect today!

Are you thinking about buying a home?
Have questions about the process?
Unsure of where or how to begin?

You need a buyer consult.

The biggest misconception I hear about buying right now is that it’s smart to wait for interest rates to come down.

You DON’T need to wait!

What DO you need? If you know you’re ready to buy, you need an agent who knows the market in your desired location and a trusted lender who can help you understand what you can afford.

The truth is if you buy at today’s rates, you can always refinance if rates drop. But if you wait with the hope of rates coming down, you can't go back and borrow at today's rates if that doesn't happen.

So the next time you think to yourself, “Maybe I’ll wait.” Don’t do it! Let me at least show you homes in your price range so you can make a decision based on facts.

Is the above you? Have you been struggling to decide about buying now vs. waiting? DM, and let’s talk - no strings attached.

Need some inspiration and ideas for saving for a down payment? I got you covered!

1. Set up automatic transfers from your checking to your savings account each month.
2. Decide now to put aside raises, bonuses, gifts, or tax refunds.
3. Skip the costly vacation, plan a staycation, and save the difference.
4. Pare down holiday and birthday gift-giving.
5. Rent out a spare room or parking space.
6. Pick up a side hustle like freelancing, pet sitting, ridesharing, or a part-time job. Remember, it’s just until you hit your down payment goal.

While 20% down allows you to avoid private mortgage insurance, you rarely will need that large a payment. A 3-10% down payment will put you in a strong position when you apply for a mortgage.

Have questions or want to connect about the buying process as a whole? DM me, and I’ll be in touch!

You may have heard this term thrown around recently, but what exactly is a 3-2-1 Buydown, and what does it mean for you?

With a 3-2-1 Buydown, the buyer’s interest rate is reduced by 3% in the first year, 2% in the second, and 1% in the third. Obviously, this can be an absolute game changer with current rates above 7%.

But this doesn’t necessarily just benefit the buyer. As a seller, offering this solution can move buyers off the fence and get your home sold faster. In a market where we’re seeing price reductions daily and homes sitting on the market, a 3-2-1 Buydown could make all the difference in selling your home at the price you want!
