Profile

 

Having started her career in marketing with a major nationwide architectural firm, Hedy gained an early appreciation for real estate and design and how these important elements interact. In addition to the tutelage of her award-winning architect husband, she supplemented her business degree with studies in real estate analysis and interior design.

 

This inclusive background serves her clients well, contributing an added dimension to the selection, evaluation and negotiation process of buying and selling a home or investment property. She has dealt with numerous properties for her own account, and provides design consultation for homeowners, contractors and investors. Her goal is to streamline the process for you, the client, while creating a clear vision of the path.

 

Through past projects, Hedy has developed working relationships with professionals in both real estate and design, including other brokers and designers, lenders, product representatives, vendors, contractors and sub-contractors — creating a diverse team to enhance services offered.

 

If you are considering selling, buying, or remodeling a current property, Hedy will approach your project with a vision to help maximize the investment. Your questions and comments are most welcome and appreciated!
