About Maggie

I had always wanted to sell real estate, but traveled, living in Europe and the Middle East en route from the U.K. to the U.S. When my American husband had the opportunity to settle down in Seattle, I immediately took out my license. That was 1990. My first Broker taught me this: Take care of your clients and the money will take care of itself. That philosophy has stood me in good stead, allowing me to be in the Top 10% of John L Scott company-wide 5 years out of the 8 I was there and to attain the Diamond Society of Coldwell Banker for 2002, 2003, 2005 and the Sterling Society in 2004. I love selling real estate. Since acquiring some of my own investment properties, I've become very interested in helping people build a real estate portfolio. Like many others, I lost a good chunk of my market investments some 3 years ago, and promised myself I would never again invest in anything that didn't have a door I could walk through. The year of 2005 saw me achieve one goal: to move into an "olde worlde" house in Tacoma. I'm English - I love the Victorian look and this is a real "country cottage"; perfect for my 17-year old daughter and me and perfect when she moves on about her life. Many of us work from a home office now and it's so easy to extend those hours, stay at your desk, make one more call. So what for relaxation? I confess redoing houses is a hobby! What the English call a "busman's holiday". Given reasonable weather, I'm out hiking with my faithful Lhasa Apso. Yes, they have short legs, but believe me they could walk forever! I always look forward to a great dinner on my way home. Curling up with a mystery novel is another favorite. Serving the real estate needs of you, your friends and family is a great pleasure. The pundits always tell us to make a living doing what we love to do. I am very fortunate to be able to do just that.
