With a bachelor’s degree in Communications from the University of Tennessee, years ago, I was WSM radio’s first woman to sell commercials in the Grand Ole Opry. I was also the first sales woman at the CBS television affiliate in Nashville. I became a top performer in the marketing and advertising industry, which prepared me to market and sell your property with cutting edge strategically targeted advertising and marketing programs.  

I am a past President of American Women in Radio and Television. Active in the community, I have served as Program Director of the Retail Board of the Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce. Currently, I am a member of the Brentwood Cool Springs Chamber of Commerce working with the Economic Development Committee. Selling “air” was a great negotiation instructor. Win-win negotiations are my goal. As a trained communicator, I prize an effective exchange of ideas. Whether in mass media, keeping my clients in the loop, talking with customers or cooperating agents, I truly enjoy interaction. Together we will effectively get the job done.

The Greater Nashville Association of Realtors presented me the Silver Award for sales accomplishment in 2004, 2005 and 2006, 2007 and The Educational Achievement Award for dedication to professional development and excellence in a dynamic and changing industry in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008 and 2009.

Real Estate Tips
Tax Considerations >New 1031 Exchange Rules

One of the most popular "tax deferring" strategies for real estate owners who are selling one property and acquiring another is the use of Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. It is an effective way to defer paying income tax on capital gain generated by the sale of a property when you intend to reinvest the proceeds in a similar, "like-kind" property. Almost any kind of real property is considered "like-kind" with any other real property.

A recently enacted law closes what was considered a loophole in the Section 1031 rules. In some cases, owners of investment real estate have used the 1031 Exchange to swap their investment property for real estate that could be readily converted to an owner-occupied residential property. After the exchange, they made the property into their principal residence, lived in it for a couple of years, then sold it. Now the American Job Creation Act of 2004 has ruled that properties converted from a 1031 exchange property into a residence must be held and used as a principal residence for at least five years to qualify for the tax exemption. Otherwise, the basic tax-deferring benefits of 1031 exchanges remain the same.

Consult your tax advisor for more detailed information.
