As an experienced Realtor® who serves all areas in Maricopa County, AZ such as Ahwatukee, Tempe, and Chandler I help both buyers and sellers meet their real estate objectives. I have extensive knowledge of each of the communities located in the Southeast Valley and will work tirelessly on your behalf to make your next home buying or home selling experience a pleasant and successful one.

When selecting a Realtor® you'll look for someone with knowledge of the community, strong negotiation skills, and a commitment to providing excellent service so let me tell you a little about myself.

I specialize in residential and investment properties in the greater Phoenix area, including the East Valley cities of Tempe, Ahwatukee and Chandler to name a few.  I can be your resource when buying or selling your next home or investment property.

In 2005 after a long (25 years) and successful career in Banking, I changed course going into private business as a Realtor.  That decision was natural, since for over 30 years I have personally bought and sold residential and investment properties, including 1031 exchanges.

As a Realtor® and Associate Broker, I bring my negotiation, lending and communication skills into play when representing clients in their real estate transactions.  My professional and personal experience enables me to provide sound advice to my clients.  I've earned certifications through the Graduate Realtor Institute and the Certified Distressed Property Institute and am also an Associate Broker.

For sellers, it is my commitment to help sell your home or property in your time-frame while helping you attain the highest possible price for your real estate. If you are interested in receiving a free home valuation, I encourage you to fill out my free home valuation form.  I'm a Certified Distressed Property Expert and if you are currently struggling, give me a call and I can review your situation to see if you have an option to foreclosure.

For buyers looking for homes or other real estate opportunities here in Tempe or other surrounding communities in Maricopa County, AZ, I will work with you to find your ideal home. I will provide you with all of the necessary tools for finding the right property. From free access to search all area homes in Tempe and metro-Phoenix; to the ability to fill out My Dream Home Finder Form, everything I can possibly provide will be available to you. In addition, once we've narrowed down what you are looking for, we can begin the home showing process so you can get a closer look at the homes that should be a good fit. I help negotiate the best possible deal for my clients with each and every real estate transaction.

As a long-time resident here in metro-Phoenix and an Arizona native, I’m familiar with what makes the area such a great place to live.  I’m customer driven and enjoy building relationships with my clients that go beyond the buying and selling of homes.  They rely on me to provide quality referrals to other professionals and for any future real estate needs.

Whether you are a buyer or seller, I’ll provide the professional skills and personal attention needed to complete a successful real estate transaction.
