I have been a FL Realtor since 2014. For my first year I joined Keller Williams for their Mission, their excellent Real Estate training and systems. I sold a few homes on my own in the early years, but found i preferred to work in a team environment. I have an upbeat friendly personality and with my South African accent, I’m able to build rapport quickly with people, new customers, clients and people in general. With my past Legal Administration skills, professional customer service, organizational and technical skills, I tested our to he more of a Type B personality - stronger in a secondary assisting coordinating role, than a Sales closer - although i can do that with effort and enthusiasm With my past real estate and organizational experience, I liked to ensure follow through with all the work and business I handled, including advertising, marketing, communication, hosting Open Houses, transaction coordinating etc.

From there I gravitated toward Luxury Vacation Rentals with the goal of obtaining a more stable and consistent income. I experienced success with Rentals, although my long term goals is to be a stronger Sales person, with a constant pipeline of Sales and Closings.

My strength is being my natural upbeat and friendly self, cultivating and following up on leads, relationship building, securing Listings, following through with Open Houses, negotiating prices and terms, providing excellent customer service, great communication, coordinating transactions to the final closing.

In 2015 I was hired by a Residential Property Management Company to Lease-up a brand new luxury Apartment Community in Naples called Orchid Run Apartments. I was very successful with that and stayed another term of Property Management after a new Company acquired our property.

With the desire to have my own business again, I spent the next few years until now focusing on Real Estate Rentals.
