She works tirelessly for her clients, always putting her best self forward and taking care to support, encourage and educate. “My relationships with my clients are truly magical,” she says. “Strong relationships are the heart and soul of my business, and I value the trust my clients place in me.”
Having worked in the industry for more than 25 years, Jan takes pride in her ability to expertly assess her clients’ real estate needs and deliver guidance and service at the highest possible level. Rounding out her expertise is a well-honed knowledge of interior design, which helps her quickly and efficiently assess a property’s value and potential. If she believes a home is not suited to her client, Jan will not hesitate to speak up, a quality her clients value and respect. Her background in marketing and design is fundamental to her success, enabling her to skillfully bring properties to life using her flawless sense of taste and style. Her beautiful marketing materials are always top-notch and are highly effective.
