The early years… Joanne, a veteran real estate professional, has had houses on her mind most of her life. When she was a little girl in the 1950’s she busied herself by drawing on brown paper bags. One of her drawings was a floor plan, an outrageous design for the time considering that most houses consisted of two bedrooms and one bath. Her floor plan featured three bedrooms: a parents bedroom, a boys bedroom and a girls bedroom; Two bathrooms: a parents bathroom and a kids bathroom; and two living rooms: an adults living room and a kids living room; and a garage attached to the house “so nobody gets wet in the winter. Years later that design became the standard for most home builders in the nation, what we in the real estate industry call a 3/2/2/FR. In Non-Realtor language it means: 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, 2 car garage and a family room.
Professional Philosophy… The core of Joanne’s business philosophy is the spirit of the Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would want them to do unto you.
Joanne believes strongly in the traditional values of integrity, professionalism and accountability.
Dedicated to excellence, Joanne helps to keep her clients on the cutting edge of today’s real estate market. This provides clients an advantage over the ever changing and always challenging market conditions.
