You won’t find my face on a bus bench on McMullen Booth Road or on a billboard on State Road 580—but you will find me deeply rooted in decades of real estate experience (since shoulder pads were a thing). My real estate journey kicked off in March of 1983 when I co-owned a commercial brokerage, managing a team of 35 agents and staff. Our company owned and operated office buildings and shopping centers all across the Tampa Bay area—yes, I’ve walked the walk in both high-rises and strip malls. In 2001, I made the shift to residential real estate, aligning with Coldwell Banker, then joined RE/MAX in 2004, where I spent two decades thriving in a culture that matched my entrepreneurial spirit. Fast-forward to today, I’m proud to be with Blake Real Estate—a respected, locally owned boutique brokerage that values service over splash. Celebrating 33+ years in the biz, I’ve weathered the housing boom, the bust, the Great Recession, a pandemic, and every quirky market shift in between. Through it all, my mission has stayed the same: provide top-notch service, clear communication, and real results. When you work with me, it’s personal. I'm a full-time agent (no part-time dabbling here), and yes—I answer my phone. I'm hands-on, present, and fully invested in your success from start to finish. I’ve sold everything from horse ranches to waterfront estates, celebrity homes to those “what-do-we-do-now?” properties. I love solving problems, navigating unique situations, and getting results. Early to the YouTube scene, I was featured in YouTube for Business by NYT contributor Michael Miller, spotlighted on ABC Action News as a "Featured Agent" and "MLS Expert", and honored to speak internationally on best practices for real estate success. I even developed the CIS Score, a proactive pricing tool to help sellers take charge of their listing strategy. Oh, and I’m proud to be in the RE/MAX Hall of Fame. Bottom line? I'm not flashy—but I am fiercely dedicated, battle-tested, and genuinely committed to help you reach your real estate goals. So, how can I help you today?"

June 1, 2026 - Mortgage rates moved lower for the second straight week and finished last week at their lowest levels since mid-May.
The primary driver was continued optimism surrounding a potential peace agreement between the United States and Iran. Financial markets responded favorably to signs of de-escalation throughout the week, which helped bond markets improve and mortgage rates move lower. Inflation data also came in supportive of rates, helping maintain the positive momentum.
By Friday, top-tier 30-year fixed rates had improved to roughly 6.562%, down from the recent highs of approximately 6.75% seen earlier this month. Rates either held steady or improved for eight consecutive business days, which is a fairly rare occurrence in today's market.
Looking ahead, the direction of rates will continue to be heavily influenced by developments overseas. Further progress toward peace could create additional room for improvement, while renewed tensions could push rates back into the higher range we saw a few weeks ago.
For now, the trend remains positive, and buyers are seeing slightly better affordability than they were earlier this month.
