Helping others find their new home is a huge responsibility and one that I don't take lightly. Real estate is an investment. When shopping for a new home, I take pride in advising my clients based on their personal goals and expected outcomes. While no real estate agent can predict everything that could happen in a home, I can spot things that other agents may not be able to. I grew up with a father in the HVAC field, and he did a lot of construction on the weekends. I learned things to look for and any hidden damages. Choosing me to help you purchase your next home just makes sense.

I make it my job to help lighten the stress by guiding you through the process. I look forward to hearing from you when you are ready to make that move!

I love helping people buy and sell real estate and I love running my own business and meeting new people. I earned my license in 1993 and have been a full-time Realtor since. Real estate is a service business. I am here to share my years of experience and knowledge to help my clients weave thru the legalities, negotiations, current market conditions, and what makes a great home to buy and how a home will sell quickly and for the most money. I have been so blessed to have worked for many clients that I now consider friends. They truly are my definition of success. Personally, I was born and raised in Des Moines. After living in Los Angeles and Seattle for a number of years, I moved back home to help my aging parents. It was a very blessed circle of life decision and one that I will never regret. I stumbled upon real estate and realized this was the perfect career for me. My business was mine to create, I could be very successful, or not so much. The decision was mine to make. I have been extremely blessed with this wonderful career that I work as a business and treat as my family. I love this quote: "The harder you work, the luckier you get." Very true indeed. My favorites things to do when not working? Traveling, cooking, any and all outdoor sports and watching my daughter show her Arabian horses nationally!

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

Having a sauna at home may be considered a luxury to some homebuyers, which can give you a good return on investment. This, however, depends on the homebuyers. Some may not want to spend the extra time and cost of heating and maintaining a sauna.

Most experts agree that homeowners just about break even when selling a home with an outdoor kitchen. There’s a potential ROI of between 100% to 200%, but this depends on the actual design and material details of your kitchen. Keeping it properly maintained also impacts the ROI. It’s good to know, however, that you won’t lose money when installing a kitchen outside.

You can be present during a home appraisal, but it’s best to stay out of the appraiser’s way. Make yourself available, but don’t engage or interrupt, and don’t discuss value or your target sales price. If possible, have your agent present in the house instead of being present yourself.

Yes, the age of your home can impact its value. However, age is just one of many factors that will have an effect. An older home may be perceived as needing more work and maintenance, but if you’ve kept up with repairs or done any renovations, this will increase its value. Buyers will also consider the size of the house, location, and how nearby homes are priced. Lastly, value also depends on whether it’s a buyer or seller’s market.

A kitchen remodel can increase home value significantly, with a return on investment (ROI) ranging from 50% to 80%. A well-executed kitchen remodel that enhances functionality, aesthetics, and energy efficiency attracts more buyers and commands a higher selling price. Smaller remodels can have a higher ROI, since less cost is invested than what would go into major or complete remodels while still offering valuable enhancements.
