On the Lighter Side of Real Estate ...

When you sell with me, I won't advertise your home in the ways seen below :)

I am well known for keeping my buyers and sellers informed and up-to-date in every step of their real estate transaction!

"I think I appreciated your ability to explain all the important matters very simply to me ... and that in this sale everything went as it should ..."

Events scheduled to honor 9/11 heroes


Today is 9/11 and I want to say, "Thank you" to all of the wonderful, selfless heroes who saved or helped the lives of others in the buildings during the event and/or who served the hurting and injured on the streets at that time.


Americans are grateful and we honor you and the families of lost ones, today.
