Background

CIPS Logo

In my real estate career I have earned several distinguished designations including the Certified International Property Specialist (CIPS) Designation which is awarded to members who offer advanced expertise to global clients and have global perspective and distinct understanding of international buyers. The CIPS Network comprises of only 2,000 real estate professionals from nearly 60 countries and is the specialty membership group for global business practitioners of the National Association of REALTORS®. The CIPS designation prepares REALTORS® to service the growing international market in their local community by focusing on culture, exchange rates, investment trends, and legal issues. To earn the CIPS designation, REALTOR® must complete rigorous coursework devoted to learning cultural differences and international business practices, and must prove achievement in international real estate transactions.

The Certified Residential Specialist (CRS) Designation from the Council of Residential Specialists recognizes professional accomplishments in both experience and education. It is the highest designation awarded to sales associates in the residential sales field. Realtors who receive the CRS Designation have completed advanced courses and have demonstrated professional expertise in the field of residential real estate. Fewer than 4% or 40,000 Realtors nationwide have earned the credential.

GRI Logo

The Graduate REALTOR® Institute (GRI) is a nationally recognized professional real estate designation. The GRI is a real estate industry designation similar to various industry designations such as Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Certified Senior Escrow Officer (CSEO), Charter Life Underwriter (CLU), and Certified Financial Planner (CFP). The GRI designation is considered the nation's number one real estate designation, which can only be earned after successfully completing a rigorous educational program. REALTORS® with the GRI designation are highly trained in many areas of real estate to better serve and protect their clients.

A Certified Distressed Property Expert® (CDPE) is a real estate professional with specific understanding of the complex issues confronting the real estate industry, and the foreclosure avoidance options available to homeowners. Through comprehensive training and experience, CDPEs are able to provide solutions for homeowners facing hardships in today's market, specifically short sales.

CPRES Logo

Certified Probate Real Estate Specialists have been specially trained by MTI Education on the process of selling real estate through the probate process. Probate is a court-regulated and often complicated series of steps that must be carefully monitored and managed. Legal deadlines are unforgiving, the documentation is very unique and the courts oversight must be adhered to throughout the marketing, negotiation and escrow periods. A Realtor with the prestigious CPRES designation is in high demand and understands the unique complications, the time-sensitive process, and adheres to the the best practices necessary to navigate the potentially treacherous transaction to completion and help the estate realize a win-win-win transaction.

LMC Logo

A Loss Mitigation Certification (LMC) program is recognized by the National Association of Realtors as the premier educational tool to teach Realtors how to work effectively with complicated transactions involving foreclosures, short sales, properties at auction, and bank-owned properties.

SFR Logo

A REALTOR® with the Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource (SFR) certification can be a trusted resource for short sales and foreclosures, direct distressed sellers to finance, tax and legal professionals, qualify sellers for short sales, develop a short sale package, negotiate with lenders, limit risk and protect the buyers.

e-PRO Logo

The e-PRO certification program helps Realtors master the advanced digital marketing techniques of today and increase their ability to reach customers, expand their capabilities, and build trust by safeguarding client information.

Prior to a real estate career, I served as Director of Marketing, IT and E-commerce Manager for Fortune 100 companies, including Time Warner and Comcast Cable. I graduated from the University of Tampa in Florida with an MBA in Marketing (1995) and MBA in Finance (1997). I studied arts and foreign languages, including Italian, German, Chinese, and Japanese. My ethnic background is Thai and an early interest in Chinese classical literature led me to the study of feng shui for over two decades. I have been practicing real estate in Florida and traditional feng shui for several years. I continue to work as a real estate professional, as well as carrying out feng shui consultations for a range of high-profile professional and company clients.

Stellar Service

Because the real estate industry is becoming more sophisticated and challenging every day, you need a professional that understands the industry and is positioned to stay ahead of the game.

I listen to your needs. I can help you find a home that meets your requirements and help you obtain financing to buy it. If you or someone you know is moving to the Greater Jacksonville area, just call or e-mail me with the names and addresses and I'll send them material about our community, homes and property.

Because I'm totally immersed in my profession, I can often find you information that you might not be able to locate otherwise. For example, I frequently know of homes that are coming on the market before they are advertised. This can be particularly useful if you are looking for a home in a highly desirable location. Often these homes will be sold almost before they are advertised. Having a good agent can save you a lot of disappointment.

I know that we will find the right house for you and your family. Please remember that if new construction is the path you decide on, my services can still be of value in that process. There are numerous issues that come up in the building of a house and having an advocate to iron out difficulties can reduce the stress that you and your family may encounter. As with the purchase of a pre-owned home, you do not incur the costs of my services. This will still default to the seller or builder and working alone does not result in any savings to you. Builders are well aware that purchasers will be working with realtors and welcome the assistance in this process. I continue to search the MLS for properties that may meet your families needs.
