“Asheville North Carolina, Bringing the Culture of a Large City, to the Beauty of a Mountain Town”

 

 

Victoria’s family came to Asheville in 1970. Asheville has changed over the past thirty plus years since then, becoming one of the most popular cities in the country. (Frommer’s Top Ten Destinations for 2007)

 

Victoria has lived in the North and South: Raleigh, NC, Atlanta and Savannah GA, and most recently before Asheville twenty-seven years in Fairfield County, CT, where she was educated at Yale University (with degrees in Political Science and Constitutional Law). Having a background in Law and an MBA in Marketing has helped her to achieve the success in her twenty-four years of Entrepreneurship in business. Victoria has brought these experiences, including her well-honed negotiating skills, to her Real Estate career.

 

Victoria is an advocate for her clients, making the home selling and buying process the FUN and EXCITING ADVENTURE it should be. “It is an emotional experience to sell or buy a home and a GREAT AGENT deals with the difficult issues, that may come up, so the home seller or home buyer can easily move on to the new life they are looking forward to, without any worries. “I love helping to educate my clients so that they can participate in as much, or as little, of the process as they desire.”

 

Victoria and her husband (French Interior Designer and Antique Expert from France) love to cook and entertain, he cooks, she sets a mean table. They have three children that live around the world and dogs that were never told they were dogs. A bit pampered, but that how all dogs should be. Asheville is so dog friendly, from the sidewalk café’s that will send out water bowls and munchies, to the ultimate pet stores with canine home made cookies, to the many dog parks around town.
