Jan's Background

Prior to my more than 3 decades as a real estate professional, I was in the counseling profession, and that's my preferred way to list and sell homes. I strongly believe that you can make your own best decisions provided you have the necessary information. It's my responsibility, as the person with the expertise, to make sure that you have that information, while hopefully having fun along the way! All those initials after my name mean I'm in the top 5% of my field nationally, but the savvy (wisdom) comes from within.

As a home owner ready to sell your home, you'll need my outstanding global marketing program, tailored to your home specifically-and under constant evaluation-to bring you top dollar in the least amount of time with the least fuss. You'll find me a tough negotiator on your behalf. You can also be confident that once we have a contract on your home, you can make plans to move on, because the work from contract to closing will be guided and taken care of.

If you reached this letter via one of my listings, you can rest assured that the homes you saw have been carefully prepared for your physical visit. Your time is valuable and the seller and I are wanting a win-win situation for everyone. As a Buyer's agent for you, representing your needs, you'll find a smooth transition to your new home, provided by top-notch professional assistance to you at every step of the process. From the delightful staff at ERA Shields Realty, through your lender and title staff, home inspectors, and after- move assistance in making the home your own, if appropriate, the folks you'll deal with will always know they are there to serve your needs!
