About Me
I grew up on the South Carolina coast, but had the opportunity to work in New York City, Montana, Colorado, and Germany during my career as a physical therapist. As much as I miss the coast, my time in Boulder, Colorado gave me a love of the mountains. That's why I've called Asheville home for over 20 years.
My two children attend Estes Elementary and Koontz Intermediate. Every Thursday afternoon you can find me working with students, and volunteering at their school. It's really rewarding to assist with the elementary chess club and work closely with the Reading Buddies program, helping Title One students improve their reading skills. In my free time, I enjoy playing guitar, camping, hiking, mountain biking, fly fishing, and taking in Asheville's amazing local craft beer scene.
Experience
Prior to moving to the mountains of Western North Carolina, I earned a master’s degree in physical therapy. It was that career path that led me to practice as a physical therapist at Carepartners/Mission for 16 years. It also allowed me to work part-time; so I began investing in residential single-family and multi-family real estate in 2004. Since that time, I have been involved in solo and joint commercial and residential ventures and was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to earn the prestigious CCIM designation through the CCIM Institute. I have found that I have a passion for creative problem solving in deal negotiations, and also specialize in cash flow analysis for income producing properties.
My 15+ yr background as an investor and involvement in a variety of deals have given me a clear understanding of the investor mindset. What’s more, I like to foster a “win-win” spirit of investing that allows for smooth transitions in both simple and complicated transactions. Please call, email, or text and let me know how I can help you with your commercial asset, and/or assist you in meeting your commercial real estate investing goals.

Ask An Expert
How is the tax bill of a home determined in North Carolina?
Real property is appraised at 100% of market value and includes land, buildings, structures, and improvements. State law requires counties to reappraise every eight years, but many counties reappraise every four. A bill can be a combination of tax rates. For example, a home inside the City of Asheville and Asheville City School districts will have three separate tax rates represented on a bill: the Buncombe County rate, the City of Asheville rate, and the Asheville City School rate. All rates are totaled to calculate the total tax liability. Tax rate estimates for our mountain communities can be found on page 127 of the Allen Tate/Beverly-Hanks Welcome magazine.
