Susan gets buyers top results through effective, targeted marketing. Using Coldwell Banker’s® state-of-the-art technology, she custom-tailors her strategy by focusing on each client’s specific real estate goals.

To alleviate their stress, Susan is readily available to answer any and all questions her clients may have.
For sellers, Susan employs a comprehensive marketing plan directed towards the largest possible buyer pool. She makes sure property images and video appear across all major online platforms, including Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. Professional, printed postcards and flyers announcing sales and open houses also get the word out to agents and potential buyers. Drawing on her talent for interior design, she personally stages the home to highlight its best features and leave a lasting impression. All these tools, along with Susan’s upbeat attitude and skilled negotiation, ensure that sellers attract qualified buyers, and buyers land the home of their dreams.
In addition to her passion for real estate, Susan is a car enthusiast who enjoys running, traveling and socializing with family and friends.
