About Charlene
Charlene’s foray into real estate began at Keller Williams where she helped open the first franchise in Ohio. From this beginning, a passion for real estate began. Eventually, she left KW and obtained her real estate license, but remained in a fiscal management role. The trigger for a sales career fell in her lap when a friend and mentor told her she should not be behind the scenes but should sell real estate. In 2004, she took the leap of faith. Years later, she cannot imagine her life without her clients, her team, or most important, her growing family.
Charlene’s philosophy in starting her real estate career was to “do the right thing” in a transaction and always be forward-thinking in her business decisions. That vision in 2004 was to go in the direction least traveled at that time. Although the internet was really starting to gain momentum in 2004 throughout the country, locally there was apprehension. By learning the ins of advertising on the internet by teaching herself, she gained an advantage for her team and eventually her sellers and buyers. Understanding the business part and knowing that “numbers never lie” in business allowed her to have budgets for advertising when the market fell and making sure the team always has goals. These key elements created the basis and the building blocks started to be stacked on top of the initial base. Her team is the shining light at the top of the current blocks and each partner has their own area of expertise. Every person is different, yet they are a closely-knit family. This family works hard and always in their client’s best interest. It is who they are and how they have become the group they are today!
Today, Charlene is branching out to provide more value for her clients. Service is what she sells, and her service must be the best in the business. With the belief that ‘it is all about the clients,’ Charlene aspires to find new ways to bring value to them. With the advantages and rewards of staging readily apparent, Charlene revolutionized the value a firm can deliver to clients by offering complimentary staging consultations with a complete inventory of staging equipment at her client’s disposal. She can now guarantee this added value to all her clients to ensure they receive the most money possible for their homes. A win for the client and a win for her firm!
Charlene’s passions are her grandchildren, golf, and real estate.
