My first experience in real estate was in the early 1980's in Oklahoma. I was a licensed sales associate license and began working at a new condominium project. During the first year I was promoted to sales manager. After that project sold out, I began working with an appraisal company and eventually earned a Certified Residential Appraiser certificate from the State of Oklahoma My love of the water drew me to the Texas Gulf Coast. I earned my sales associate license in 1996 and worked in the Freeport market. In 1998 I partnered with two other people and opened a firm in Surfside Beach concentrating my career on beach and canal property in Brazoria County. In 2002 our firm merged with Brannan Realty which combined a sales staff with a strong rental department. In 2011 I earned my Brokers License and in 2012 I opened Coastal Properties. I am partnered with Bridge Point Builders (my husband) and developed a luxury canal community on Oyster Creek. I hold the GRI designation, RSPS, e-PRo and SFR certificates. You will find that my knowledge of the market trends, income potential from vacation rentals and features unique to individual neighborhoods valuable to your particular needs. Being a member of the largest MLS in the United States, the Houston Association of Realtors provides countless tools that benefit my clients whether they are buying or selling real estate.
