Life has been busy recently, but I recognize and embrace the good of it. Everyone feels that pull between work, family, friends, spouse, farm needs, home needs, and somewhere in there personal time needs. Concentrating on taking time to appreciate the busy. Appreciating the trust and relationships built along the way. And with my experience as a nurse I will be the first to tell you life is so very short and we need to run as fast as we can towards what makes us happy. Here are a few of my happy stories from the past few weeks. I am truly grateful to those that put their trust in me. Every day is a miracle and an opportunity. Let me help you next! Just give me a call.

Helping other's means everything to me. Being there especially during stressful or emotional stages in life. Sickness, life change, loss of a pet or loved one. We all can make a difference. ❤️

As many of you know, I work very hard for my clients and to continue to build my reputation as a realtor. Blessed is not nearly a big enough word, but I find myself coming back to it. The last several weeks have brought even more smiles, some tears, new beginnings, and bitter sweet endings for many people close to my heart. I can't tell you how much I enjoy my job and I believe it shows. Here are a few closings and recently under contract from the last few weeks. And a review from a wonderful client and close friend. Thank you all so very much!!

"Loyalty. That word kept coming back to me when Heather and I decided to sell our home. I started my business back in 2015, stepping away from a secure job to chase something I believed in. One of my very first clients was Kelly Giarla’s mom—and she still is today. Somewhere along the way, Kelly trusted me too. That kind of relationship means something. Over 10 years later, it definitely mattered when we had to choose a realtor.
Honestly, it was a no-brainer.
I knew Kelly would work hard, but she exceeded every expectation. She was straight with us when we needed it, fought for us when it counted, and stayed on top of everything the entire time. Questions? Answered almost immediately. Issues? Handled. Stress? Minimized.
And maybe what meant the most—she treated our home like it actually mattered. Not just a listing…our home.
If you’re even thinking about buying or selling, you want someone like Kelly in your corner. She’s the real deal." - Derek
