The Right Real Estate Agent In The Tryon & Columbus, NC Area

People don't talk about it a lot. But finding the right real estate agent can be the difference between a happy, stress-free home buying or selling experience, and an unhappy, stressful experience.

First, you'll want an agent ready and able to make a fulltime commitment to you. I can and will do that.

Second, you'll want an agent with the experience needed to know the local Tryon, Columbus, Saluda and Landrum neighborhoods, schools, market conditions, ordinances, etc. With my years of experience in the local market - I have the expertise and track record of success you need.

Third, you'll want an agent who embraces the convenience of technology without losing the personal touch. You'll love the resources available on my website and the e-mail alerts that I send, but these will never replace the time I spend with you, serving as your personal guide through this exciting process.

The Right Area

 Located in the southwestern foothills of the Blue Ridge mountains, the Polk County area is known for its mild climate due to the "Thermal Belt." Warm air settles and moderates the temperatures — cooler in summer and warmer in winter. This phenomenon allows for outdoor activities and events to be enjoyed throughout the seasons. Take a look at this recently released video of what Polk County has to offer. http://youtu.be/ZdobrSVASOA
