Professional Experience
I have been a full time Broker Associate with Coldwell Banker, successfully listing and selling homes down the Peninsula since 1989. My area of expertise include lower San Francisco, Daly City, Brisbane, South San Francisco, San Bruno, Millbrae, Burlingame, San Mateo, Belmont, Foster City, San Carlos, Redwood City, Redwood Shores, Menlo Park, Palo Alto and Mountain View.
Professional Philosophy
I am committed to exceeding my client’s expectations by providing them with exceptional service. My goal is to help make their overall buying and selling experience smooth and well managed. The greatest reward for me is helping my clients realize their dreams: whether selling and moving up to a larger home, downsizing after the kids have moved out or relocating out of the area. I know, that I have done my job and succeeded in turning a dream into a reality, when I hand over the keys at close of escrow. Just seeing them smile is my greatest satisfaction!Professional Affiliations

"Jo-Ann - you did a great job selling the family home and so fast without a hitch. I tell my friends up here in Redding and they can't believe how fast the sale went and more than what was asking".
Thank you for a great job.
