Credentials
 

Doing a good job helping a client sell a property requires an agent skilled in a number of areas. Selling waterfront properties requires additional skills.
 

Pricing

My analytical skills (BSEE from the University of Washington) and broad knowledge of the North Kitsap and Jefferson counties--especially the Poulsbo and Port Ludlow areas--help me arrive at a suggested price that is attractive, yet realistic.

Marketing

An MBA in marketing from Seattle University, 20 years marketing electronic products, several years of proposal writing, many years as an amateur photographer and in real estate have given me the skills to clearly showcase a property's strong features. My goal is always to help a potential buyer understand the property's full value, thus improving the chances of an offer at an attractive price.

Negotiation, Communication and Problem Solving

A career in product and project management have given me several valuable skills: negotiating a contract that will work for all involved and that all involved will work to make happen; keeping everyone involved in the sale informed; making sure that everyone knows the ramifications of a decision so no one is surprised by an outcome; real-world problem solving; and managing the transaction--ensuring all required activities happen on time.

First-hand Waterfront Knowledge

As an owner of a home that I helped build on the waterfront, I have first-hand knowledge about the issues unique to waterfront, like bank stability, setbacks, and erosion protection. If you are considering selling a waterfront property I can help present your property in the best light, knowing from personal experience what is important to a waterfront buyer.
