Jody Allen |

Being a real estate broker is much more fun than being a Landscape Architect and Land Planner. As a designer, I spent most of my time inside, hunched over a drafting table. It is so much more fun to be out and about with clients. Matching buyers with the perfect house and neighborhood gives me great pleasure. Before starting with YSU, I worked as an on-site agent and learned how much money new home buyers leave on the table. Knowing builders’ marketing strategies allows my sellers to compete for that elusive buyer. This information is even more critical now that it's a buyer's market! |
