KNOWLEDGE
As a dedicated real estate consultant, I am well-qualified to guide you in buying or selling a home. I am one of very few Realtors that has a 4 year Bachelor of Science Degree in Real Estate from Florida State University and have been licensed in the State of Florida since December 2000.  I have many years of real estate sales experience in both the commercial and residential sectors and use my education and experience in finance, contracts, negotiation and marketing to your best advantage. Additionally, I am a Certified Distressed Property Expert or CDPE, helping to solve the foreclosure crisis one homeowner at a time. (see more about CDPE Designation below). Times have changed and the real estate market has changed.  Now, more than ever, you need an expert that you can trust to represent your best interests and help you to navigate through the complicated world of real estate. 

WHAT IS A CDPE?                            
A Certified Distressed Property Expert® is a real estate professional with specific understanding of the complex issues confronting the real estate industry, and the foreclosure avoidance options available to homeowners. Through comprehensive training and experience, CDPEs are able to provide solutions for homeowners facing hardships in today’s market, specifically short sales.
The prospect of foreclosure can be financially and emotionally devastating, and often homeowners proceed without guidance of any kind. The developers of the CDPE Designation believe that the best course of action for a homeowner in distress is to speak with a well-informed, licensed real estate professional. They have the tools needed to help homeowners find the best solution for their situation. Often, when other options have been exhausted, CDPEs can help homeowners avoid foreclosure through the efficient execution of a short sale.
While enduring financial difficulties is challenging for any family, the process of finding a qualified real estate professional should not be. Selecting an agent with the CDPE Designation ensures you are dealing with a professional trained to address your specific needs.
CDPEs don’t merely assist in selling properties, they serve and help save their clients in need.
