Q & A with Julia: Q: One of the first questions people who want to buy or sell a house is "how long have you been in real estate", so let's start with that question. A: For twenty years I owned a business in New Haven, CT, interior design and lighting design. Thinking life could be easier and more fun, I have been a full-time realtor since 1995. The first six years in CT and in NM since 2002. Q: OK, so you moved to New Mexico - WHY? Isn't that quite a change from Connecticut? A: Absolutely - this is as different as it gets! Most of our Connecticut friends think we have moved to a foreign country - and I am often in agreement! (Santa Fe is called the "City Different" and it TRULY is!) My husband, Abraham, and I decided to move here while visiting Santa Fe after 9/11. We made the decision in 24 hours and just made it happen! This makes it very easy for me to work with buyers who make the move from another state - I've already experienced the challenges! I will also say my "east coast" training is helpful - making me kindly aggressive. Q: Are you originally from CT? A: No, I was born in Bemidji, Minnesota. Headwaters of the Mississippi River and home of Paul Bunyan! I'm really glad I had a midwestern up-bringing: good values, tolerance for cold weather, appreciation for summers without humidity, and LOTS of cookie recipes! I was really eager to leave and see the world, so I joined the Peace Corps ASAP after college. Q: What is your real estate specialty? A: Patience and expertise. Typically, we start with a "Santa Fe Sampler" - because Santa Fe has lots of great possibilities for properties. We visit different geographic locations: what can you get for this price in this neighborhood? It is always important to ask the buyers "what do you see yourselves doing in Santa Fe"? If biking is important, I'll help you find a house close to biking trails. If groceries are important, I know every grocery store in town. If privacy is important, etc etc....we'll find just the right property whatever your criteria and needs are for your new home!
