KBB REALTORS - Sandy Adams

KBB REALTORS: SANDY ADAMS

Question: Why Real Estate?

Sandy's Answer: I've always loved looking at and drawing house plans. But it wasn't until I almost lost my good faith money on a house following unacceptable inspection results in the 90's that I decided to go into the business when I retired from teaching. Nothing had been explained to me by the realtor so my goal was to go into the business and work hard to educate and protect clients.

Question: What's your favorite part of the job?

Sandy's Answer: Meeting new people and problem solving with them to achieve a win-win solution.

Question: What's something most people don't know about you?

Sandy's Answer: I was head majorette for 3 years in high school and twirled 2 fire batons. A real Flamer!...

Jennifer's extensive knowledge of the housing market, construction, and design makes working with her a fresh and low-stress experience.
