Perseverance, integrity, attention to detail, and the energy to drive the transaction through to a successful closing, are all required to compete in today's challenging real estate market.  Along with a national perspective and advanced technical skills, Joan brings a unique set of skills to bear in serving her clients' needs. 

A recent arrival in Charleston, Joan draws upon her background in marketing research, advertising, and technical skills to provide in-depth buyer services.  With a deep appreciation for quality of life issues, sense of place, and community preservation, she recognizes the relationships of location and community to value in real property. 

Her long-standing commitment as a community volunteer and Junior League board member, her interest and involvement in historic gardens, her passion for historic preservation, including service on the Board of Advisors for the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and her membership in the Colonial Dames of America, all made Charleston the obvious choice to finally call home.  Because she has experienced the challenges of frequent moves, she is in a unique position to understand relocation issues and to smooth your move to Charleston.  She knows the dynamics of leaving close friends, selling or buying a home, relocating families, and finding the right schools and personal services.  Drawing on her associates' lifelong knowledge of this historic city, Joan will focus her enthusiasm and attention to detail on the search for the right property for you, whether a Pied-a-Terre, an historic Charleston single house, or stylish beach retreat.  If you are considering the sale of your home, Joan's marketing expertise and wide network of contacts, local, national, and international, will insure the broadest possible exposure for your property.
