came to the Outer Banks in 1982 while on vacation and never left! I've lived here year-round since then. After working for an attorney handling real estate closings, I decided to get my license to better understand the real estate business. A friend of mine, who is a developer, insisted I go into Sales. I enjoy helping people and matching them to the best property.

My reputation is built on client satisfaction. Since 1984, I have assisted buyers, sellers, those relocating and retiring to the area. You have the benefit of my experience, knowledge and professional guidance to sail to a smooth closing

My Mission: To help buyers and sellers get what they want. 

I educate you so that you are best informed to make a smart decision. I will show you both strengths and weaknesses of the property you are considering. I view real estate as a process of elimination. You must eliminate properties that do not work for you before you find the one that suits you best. I do not sell you property. You BUY what you want and I ensure that you know everything necessary and important to do so. I will assist you through every step of the transaction so there are no surprises. When YOU are happy, I am happy. I do not earn my keep until the job is complete to your satisfaction. 

Buying a home or lot? - If you are buying your dream home at the beach for vacations, are investing in a rental property or want land to build or hold, I will educate you and help every step of the way as YOUR Buyer Agent. 

Selling a home or land? - With proper facts and understanding of the market, I will get your parcel SOLD for the most dollars in a timely manner. I do not just want listings, I want to sell them fast.

Relocating? Retiring? Buying a home for the first time? - Let my expertise navigate you to the right house and neighborhood. I love to welcome people to the Outer Banks and introduce them to the area.
