Bio
She has had a long and fulfilling career selling Real Estate in the Antelope Valley and expect many more years helping her clients make their Real Estate dreams a reality. She got her Real Estate license almost 33 years ago. Her mother began selling Real Estate a few years prior. She began helping her with her business. She discovered she liked the business so jumped in with both feet. She has been smitten ever since.
In the beginning years she sold a lot of land and other investment properties. Believe it or not, she was kind of shy in those early years. She was reticent about getting too emotionally involved with home buying clients. She felt more comfortable dealing in the numbers aspects of investing. She studied Rates of Return, Capitalization Rates, learned to analyze investment properties. She was told to plug in a 6% annual appreciation rate. All of her senior Real Estate Comrades said: Real Estate values do not go down in California. Only up! She bought and sold a couple parcels of land. She was making commissions on her listings and sales. The program worked through the late 1980s. Land and home sales were both strong during those years. Interest rates were manageable after the early 1980s. New home builders were building housing tracts all over the Antelope Valley. Although her new Real Estate gig took a lot of time and work, it seemed pretty easy to her. She felt like she had “arrived” at where she needed to be. Then 1990 Hit! Overnight the Real Estate market went into a Stall. Very soon the Stall was a Freefall. Her comfortable position of “success” quickly crumbled into chaos. In order to meet her financial obligations, she went back to bartending part time. It was a stressful time for her and for many others. She learned that she never wanted to be in such a precarious position again.
