Growing up in Northeast Ohio with a family actively involvedin real estate, I was privileged to learn the business first handfrom an early age. From cleaning and setting up for showings,to learning the areas and markets around me, living the realestate life from childhood helped me nurture and grow myinnate abilities, making me into the Realtor I am today. Mygrandmother started in the early '70s, my mother in 1987, andnow my sister is a realtor in Florida, and I work as part of mymother's top-producing real estate team, The Darlene HallTeam at Keller Williams Realty.Before becoming licensed in Ohio in 2013, I started my careeras an agent in Florida in 2007 during the housing marketcrash, a time when others were getting out of the real estatebusiness. Having learned customer service, professionalism,legalities, and how to manage multiple listings via my mother,at several points I was managing and negotiating over 40sales and purchases simultaneously. I managed so manylistings and sales at the same time I earned the nickname"Short-Sale Queen."In 2013 I returned to my roots and became licensed in Ohiowhere I currently work alongside my mother, Darlene Hall, atthe Darlene Hall Team of Keller Williams Chervenic Realty inFairlawn, Ohio.I thoroughly enjoy all aspects of real estate, yet I have apassion for working with first-time buyers and investors thatflip homes. I love seeing "diamond in the rough" propertiescome to life and add value to today's real estate market. Iwork closely with investors on every step of the designprocess, helping to create a home that today's buyer wants.Even more, I love working with first time home buyers. I love"holding their hand" during the entire process, includingteaming up with lenders based on my clients' needs, and helpthem achieve their dreams of becoming homeowners.Creating an "at-ease" atmosphere is important to me; I wantmy clients to feel completely comfortable. Establishing aclient's personal needs, understanding their likes, dislikes,and defining clear results is vital to achieving mutual success. Overall, I am simply "house obsessed" and understand what'simportant to today's buyers and sellers. For me, honesty isthe best policy, and my "tell it like it is" words and ideas comewith true sincerity. Engaging all I have learned, I haveremained within the top-five team agents in transactions andvolume for the past five years.Next to God, my family is the most valuable thing to me.
