"I can't really tell you how much I appreciate Christi. We had a really challenging situation and were facing foreclosure after some financial problems and serious health issues.Christi was considerate of our circumstances and was full of information that we needed to know. We had to do a short sale on our house and really didn't know what to expect. But Christi got it sold in 45 days and it is a HUGE relief to us. As a retired couple it was time to downsize anyway, so we rented a condo and are loving the freedom we have here. THANK YOU CHRISTI!

"I met Christi at an afternoon event for charity in Virginia Beach. A few months later when my Mother made the decision to sell the home she had owned with my father for 25 years, I knew the only person I wanted to call was Christi. She sold my Mother's home in 3 weeks and then helped her find and buy a very nice townhome. Then about 7 months later she helped me and my new husband find and buy our first house. She's super-smart and AMAZING when it comes to striking a deal and negotiating a contract.
We love her!"

"Christi helped me buy my first home and that was great! I had very little cash for closing costs or a down payment and she was able to structure the contract so that I actually got a check from the attorney at closing for just over $500!! I was floored.Then about 6 months later, she helped my mother to find and purchase her first investment property and it was another great experience. She was able to get my mother a FREE closing. If you need an agent, Christi is really great. I also liked that she was almost always available on her cell phone. I really feel like she cared about my needs."
Response: "I hope you and your Mom are doing great! Thanks for the great review. KEEP IN TOUCH!"

What year did you become a real estate agent?
2002
How many years have you been in Real Estate?
15
What is the average home price in your market?
Around $250k
Are there any new developments or trends in your area?
For the first time in a LONG time, it's a great time to buy! Homes are still selling, it's a matter of having a great Realtor who is aggressive with marketing and pricing. Lots of people will tell you what you want to hear. But if you're looking to buy or sell in this market, you need an experienced Realtor who is not afraid to tell you the truth!
Why do you enjoy being a real estate agent?
I love working with people. I love the challenges involved along with the freedom. I also am a marketing buff and I really get to enjoy using my skills in that arena.
What is the most challenging issue you face as a Real Estate Professional?
The market has been unpredictable but has only made me more determined to work harder and change with the world around me!
Tell us one of your client success stories or an interesting moment in your profession.
I think the most rewarding experience I have had to date was about 3 years ago with a client who grew up in NYC. She enlisted in the military and had worked hard for many years, saving up money for a home one day. She eventually met her soon to be husband and decided to settle down. I helped them find a BEAUTIFUL house with a big yard and lovely landscaping. Everything went very well. I met them at the property for the walk-through just prior to settlement and as I walked with Nina through the back yard, she began to cry. I immediately stopped and asked her what was wrong??
She smiled and said she had never had a beautiful yard. That she grew up in city apartments with no grass to be seen. I hugged her and cried right along with her!
What is your best characteristic?
Listening, understanding, and really getting involved with my client's dreams. The years of experience work very well for my clients as well :)
Who or what inspires you the most?
My children inspire me to be a better person every day of my life.
What is the best advice you ever received?
Never let anything stand in your way-not even yourself.
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?
I love Virginia Beach. It is my home and I'm really happy here.
