Growing up in a military family, home was where we were all together... on-post housing, sky-rise apartment in Seoul, Korea, temporary hotels, and my personal favorite- a small camping trailer for 5 of us. All those years my parents rented from the Army- we didn't have a home to call ours until my dad was stationed at JBLM in 2004. Here, he was actually educated on the home buying process- with that education to guide them, my parents finally purchased a home in Yelm! It was a feeling- to this day- I can remember as pride & comfort in the place we laid our heads. And this really is what I am passionate about & the reason behind my career choice to this day! Being able to empower buyers and sellers (especially our military) and educate them on the home buying and selling process is what it is all about.
And now, as an Army spouse for almost 20 years, and having lived and worked in the greater JBLM area for 20 years, I pride myself in being rooted in this community. I believe this to truly be an important part of what it takes to be a local real estate expert with not just expertise in negotiations and marketing but a love and understanding for our (military) community.
