Buying and selling a home is one of life's most important decisions. It is often a time of stress and excitement. Choosing a Realtor® you can trust, coupled with the experience and skills to represent your interests, are essential.I am a full time Realtor® at Stephens Real Estate & carry the CRS, ABR, GRI and e-PRO designations. I selected Stephens due to the strong reputation we have in Lawrence and Douglas County.When I first came to Lawrence in the early 1990's, I fell in love with the older neighborhoods surrounding Kansas University including Old West Lawrence and East Lawrence. The charm and character of the homes, mature trees and proximity to downtown and KU have always been important to my wife and me. Subsequently, we have resided in these areas and currently live south of campus. I am invested in maintaining and improving the quality of life in our urban core neighborhoods. There are a handful of Realtors in Lawrence that are knowledgeable and passionate about our older homes and neighborhoods. I am happy to be among this group and to serve clients who have similar values when buying and selling homes.I respect and appreciate diversity in our community and welcome the opportunity to work with all. When you are ready to explore your real estate needs please give me a call and we can talk about your goals.
