Biography:

       This month (March 2009) begins my seventeenth year selling homes as a Realtor.  In that period of time I am grateful to have built a clientele that many of you are a part of –whether you bought or sold a house with me or referred me to your friends and associates.   

My business runs primarily throughout Boulder County.  About half the properties I sell are in rural areas; the other half are ‘city-homes’.   I work with a lot of country and mountain properties, and a fair amount of my business is in the cities Boulder, Niwot, and Longmont (yes, I get around a bit).  In recent years I have developed a specialty selling high-end, unique properties but I still enjoy working with first time buyers too. It’s not the dollar amount of the transaction that matters; it’s the people I get to help who matter.

The network of contacts and relationships I’ve developed over 17 years  provides a connection within the above territory, a territory broader than just one neighborhood, that few Realtors can, or want, to envelop, that many of my clients find beneficial —the ability to reach and cultivate a  market area bigger than just one neighborhood, to better promote my Seller’s listings, and to find homes for my Buyers.

 The company I work with, Wright-Kingdom Real Estate, is the best real estate support team in the region—which helps me to better serve my clients.  Wright Kingdom is one of the last fiercely independent real estate companies in the region—meaning we haven’t sold out to one of the national franchises—like so many companies have in recent years.  That means better service for you.

At the time I began selling real estate in January of 1993, my family and I were living in Left Hand Canyon in an old miner’s ‘ghost’ cabin that we remodeled and expanded from practically nothing.  When we first moved there in 1982 there was no heat except an old pot belly stove and my first child, Sylve, had to sleep in bed with us wearing a skull cap to keep her bald little head from freezing.  We were barely more than optimistic kids ourselves back then. My father-in-law said we should have blown the place up when we bought it and started over from scratch. 

In 1995 we moved to Old Town Longmont so the kids would have a real neighborhood to grow up in. We bought a light filled, turn of the century home on Lincoln Street that satisfied our perennial need to remodel everything in sight; where the kids could walk to school, and where we could actually get pizza delivered whenever we felt like it (heaven indeed). 

Nine years ago we moved back to the country to live on a horse property, just west of Longmont, which we felt was a good compromise between the mountains and town--even if it was just beyond the pizza guy’s territory. 

And last fall we literally sold the farm. A very emotional decision for us but one we felt was necessary now that the kids are mostly grown up.  Farms, after all, are for kids on their horses.  (We now live in a beautiful town home in SW Longmont and I have to say I don't miss all those years of chores:-) 

Maybe you can see why I have developed such a broad range of real estate.

After sixteen years I can’t seem to get away from writing my newsletters.  It’s my way of trying to connect with you, hopefully offering something of value, and staying in touch.  Have a great year and thanks for indulging me.   I know I’m not too old yet, because seventeen years still seems like a long time. .
