When I first started in real estate in 2005, someone told me to answer the question... "how long have you been in real estate" with the statement, "it seems like forever."  Well, for me that was true.  

My love for real estate started a long time ago when I envied the lifestyle of my much older cousin.  She was a real estate broker in Flemington, NJ.  I was only a teenager at the time and didn't know what life had in store for me. Thirty some years later, when the kids were grown and I only had to take care of myself, I finally had the chance to change careers and start on my real estate journey. But all those years I had my eye on real estate. I even dipped my toes into real estate investing for awhile. 

It's been a roller coaster ride with the changes in the market, but I still love it.  Being a real estate agent is not a job to me. It is a passion.
