About Us
I live and work in Grandville. Before becoming a Realtor, I owned my own cleaning business for 15 years so customer service, paying attention to details and going "above and beyond" are a few of my strengths. So now, not only am I a Realtor but I am also a Professional Property Staging Consultant which means I am able to help you uncover hidden equity in your home ultimately netting you the most $$ for your home.

I have had many "best" clients! I got them from an open house and some were in my neighborhood. It was simply being friendly, showing an interest in them and not just real estate, asking a few questions and not hounding them. I let them know I am there to help, not just capture a "transaction."

I am a big advocate of handwritten notes...sellers, buyers, open house guests, 1 year housaversary...just because! Of course, I do have an email campaign running as well...just in case I forget.

Absolutely not. Buying a home is HUGE and I want a thorough and complete inspection. You can't fear it...fear won't change the fact that you may find something of significance that needs to be addressed. It is ultimately up to the buyers (with the help of their agent who hopefully attends the...

You can't fear it...fear won't change the fact that you may find something of significance that needs to be addressed. It is ultimately up to the buyers (with the help of their agent who hopefully attends the inspection with them) to decide which items they are concerned with and which items they feel won't break the deal.

Many inspectors will also do a visual pest/termite inspection. if needed, anything beyond the visual would be done by a pest/termite specialist. When searching for an inspector, simply ask for the list of items he inspects. Of course...carbon monoxide is an added charge and takes a minimum of 24-48 hours.

Could be many reasons it hasn't sold. Price is generally the first thing to look at. Tired photos and poor marketing...make sure your photos are taken by a professional. Maybe even have some drone aerial shots. Have a staging consultant like myself come and take a look at interior (and exterior if needed) condition, staging, what can we do to give it the "WOW factor and make it "POP?" We need to make it appeal to the buyers! Depersonalizing can be a big help! These are some great places to start.
