Happy Birthday, Rockhill Real Estate Group! On Sept 2, 2014, we unveiled our new company to the world. We were a lean team of four Realtors but we were hungry to be successful and passionate in serving our clients. And today, our team has grown steadily to 12 Realtors + a marketing coordinator & an office manager. Each year as we reflect another birthday, I love it falls on Labor Day weekend. A rare slow(er) weekend for our team to enjoy the closing of the summer season with
And just like that, we've completed another trip around the sun. I can't believe it's time for us to celebrate our 4th birthday at Rockhill Real Estate Group. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! As I reflect on the past 12 months, it is evident we are moving away from a "new company" status to more of an established company. I'm proud to see us as a top competitor against companies with far more agents or with national recognition, yet my heart swells as I watch each and every agent in our offic
The 20 days of celebration has lead us to my actual anniversary, June 22, 1998! Please join us to celebrate my milestone with a come & go lunch today at my office, Rockhill Real Estate Group!

When the opportunity to co-found Rockhill Real Estate Group presented itself, I was 6 months pregnant with my first child. The nerves of opening a new company plus entering into motherhood were certainly scary to me! Would I be successful in this new business venture? How could I care for a newborn in addition to a new company? Who will care for my baby while I work? How long will I get “off” work while I recover from delivering my son? These were just a few of the questions
Bob Johnson, my father, served in the National Guard so the 4th of July easily became my absolute favorite holiday. My family typically celebrates the holiday over the course of several days! Our tradition includes shooting fireworks off at my mom’s house in Concordia with my siblings and all of our children. Another night, I’ll host a BBQ at my house for friends and neighbors; of course, you can bet we’ll be shooting off more fireworks! Lastly, we always make it a point to h

This story goes back to my Concordia, KS real estate days. However, it didn’t catch up to me until 2012. But let me take you back to 2008. In a small one-horse town (Jamestown) there was a bank robbery. How does this involve me? I’ll tell you I wasn’t the teller nor the robber. Now, back to 2012. I was furiously working away back in my office when the receptionist buzzed back I had some visitors. Unexpected visitors, I’ll add. Despite my confusion, I threw on my best smile &

Throughout the years, I’ve always been blown away by the kindness and generosity of my clients. I’ve felt the opportunity to work with each of my clients was enough of a gift and to this day it remains such a sweet surprise when I receive something as a token of their appreciation. However, the one that stands out the most still makes me giggle as much today as it did when I received it six years ago! I was working with an Army Captain while he searched for his first home in

How has the Real Estate Industry Evolved from 1998 to 2018? Back in the good-ole-days of 1998 things looked entirely different than they do today! Any and all paperwork had to be done on a type-writer. It took forever to complete and you sure didn’t want to make a mistake! #startingover I know what some of you are thinking “What’s a type-writer?” Not to mention, we didn’t have lockboxes available! So, if you had to show 5 or 10 houses in a day, you had to stop by each real es

The past 20 years have been an absolute ball for me professionally & certainly personally. As I think about the next 20 years and how it will pan out, I am so excited. There will be many new clients turn into friends. I’ll be first in line to see new design and styles of the new construction in our area. And I’ll be able to help people continue to achieve their real estate dreams. As the profession evolves, I’m eager to finesse my newest role as associate broker training and
I can think of many instances in the past where my buyer-clients have somehow got themselves into a conversation with the seller or the seller’s agent after making an offer but prior to acceptance. Unfortunately, their excitement and good intentions ended up hurting them financially in the long-term as the sellers used it to their advantage during the negotiation process. I’ve sold hundreds of houses and developed a technique for presenting offers and subsequent information t

While I have flexibility in the hours of my day, I certainly put in 40+ hours a week! The unconventional life of my profession leads people to think Realtors have tons of free time but the successful agents simply do not. Many nights I am up until 1 or 2 in the morning responding to emails or preparing contracts for my clients. Or I have clients with limited availability to see houses so if their only time is at 7am or 7pm to look, I make it happen. Sure, there are times I ca
While my #1 tip to my sellers is to put away any and everything you can to create a clean space, I also vehemently believe money spent on a professional clean prior to listing your home is money well spent! Regardless of your listing price, if you can, spend money on hiring a company to come in and complete a deep-clean!
