I’ve been tagged by my friend Amanda Simpson to share a little about myself to my fellow Rainers.

Yes, you can buy the first house I show you. I usually spend hours going through listing after listing trying to find the right match for my client. In fact yesterday I did a search which came back with 664 results. I sent my client 5 listings. I don’t want to waste their time, and I don’t want t...
