My Credentials to Serve You

First licensed in 1972, I worked for an insurance company and in real estate for 2 years. I obtained my brokers license and opened the first MLS office in Niles, MI. Soon after, my staff increased and I moved into my present location. I once owned an ERA franchise, had a partner, and eventually sold to Cressy & Everett Real Estate. I have been involved with the Southwestern Michigan Association of Realtors in various capacities and was chosen Realtor of the year, by this association, in 1993.  I have been a member of the Niles Noon Optimist Club for several years. I have donated time and money to the Niles/Buchanan Area Habitat for Humanity, Inc, for several years. I am active in listings and sales for Cressy & Everett Real Estate.
