Why did you get into real estate?

I worked for a CPA firm as an accountant for 25 yrs and have renovated several houses.  It seemed like a natural fit and has been a great second career for me.

What is your favorite part of being a real estate agent?

Finding the perfect house for clients and sharing in their joy when the purchase is complete.

What is your most memorable listing?

A house on Lake Freeman with a spectacular view. Living on the water is so peaceful and calming, showing it to buyers was instantly de-stressing.

What do you do on the weekend, that is, when you’re not hosting an Open House?

Purdue sports and events, concerts, working on my house and yard.

What, other than Real Estate, are you passionate about?

The community has given me so much, now I think it’s time to give back. I’m treasurer of a philanthropic organization, we sponsor fund raising events and volunteer in our community.  I’m also a member of Rotary.

What’s the most important advice you would give to someone looking to sell their home?

Have your home pre-inspected so there are no surprises. Make sure all routine maintenance is up to date (furnace check/clean filters, gutters clean, etc).  A house should be clutter-free and have minimal furniture.  Most important: clean!

What super power do you wish you had and why?

The power of flight, it would be the most freeing feeling ever!



Thank you Jan!
