Why Choose Laura as your Realtor®?

EXPERT NEGOTIATION SKILLS

Purchasing a home is typically the largest investment you will make in your lifetime.  When making any other investment, you want to be sure the person you’re trusting is truly an expert in their field, and real estate should be no different.  With over 20 years experience working with buyers, I understand you want the most home for the best price possible and I will do everything in my power to make that happen for you.

   THOROUGH KNOWLEDGE OF THE MARKET

Having worked in the Tri-Cities market for over 20 years, I know what our market can and can’t take.  When you find the home you love, I am able to access historical data not only about that home but also about similar homes to ensure that we are negotiating the best price for you.

  COMPREHENSIVE KNOWLEDGE OF NEW CONSTRUCTION

Building a home and purchasing an existing home are two different experiences and having a Realtor® who is experienced in new construction can make all the difference.  I know what to expect throughout the process and can help make this potentially stressful time as easy as possible for you.  By making you fully aware of every option available, preparing you for all the next steps and guiding you through this process from contract to move-in, I make it my goal to make your new home building experience exactly what it should be– exciting.

 TOP PRODUCING REALTOR® IN THE TRI-CITIES AREA

What does this mean to you?  This means that I have market knowledge, experience and have had the opportunity to work in more neighborhoods than any other agent, allowing me to become familiar with more markets.  When you are narrowing down your search and trying to find the right school, right neighborhood, or home with a view, I’ll know what neighborhoods will fit your criteria and which don’t.  This saves you time that you may need when our market is busy and homes aren’t available for long.

 EXTENSIVE EDUCATION AND TRAINING

Through my alliance with Coldwell Banker as well as several elite designations you can rest assured that I am up-to-date with all of the current negotiation skills as well as any recent real estate law changes that may affect your home purchase. 

 HIGHLY SKILLED SUPPORT TEAM

I have put together a support team consisting of my office manager, Robin, transaction coordinator, Camilla and my husband/ Realtor®, Wes Hodges.  Should you call my office and I am unavailable,  please feel free to chat with any one of these skilled members of my support team.
