To say I have a "passion" for real estate might be a little strong. My husband and I have used (or tried to use!) so many different real estate websites over the past several years, and they always only offer a few features. Whether real estate buying, selling, or just looking at houses for you is for fun or profit, we thought that people who use the internet in that pursuit deserve better. And so, after many weekends of trying to create a better place to list our properties StrutYourHut was born, thanks to my son Berry and daughter-in-law Tiffany Starr. Anyone may use the site for free. Tip: Whether looking for a new place to live, or looking to sell or rent a place that we already own we've found that the most important quality to have is "Patience." And if you're selling or renting, you have to be open to trying new ideas to market your home. New places to put ads: a business card in the laundromat or a notice on the marina blackboard, or a new website you've heard about.

My philosophy that life is a delicious flow of the relationships we make carries through to my work in with my real estate clients. But what drew me to Real Estate? The appeal of Ithaca and the Fingerlakes region after living seven years in East Africa was its natural beauty, our sparkling Cayuga Lake, its international community and Cornell's renowned Hotel School. I joined Houragency a few months after arriving here, and worked in all aspects of the Ad Business-- administration, sales, design and production. Later the opportunity to combine my love of travel-- in particular the Caribbean-- with my marketing and PR background connected me with Divi Resorts and Casinos, which owned properties on ten Caribbean islands as head of Advertising and PR. As I said, "Life is all about relationships, so after the dust of the dot-com bust settled, I cco-founded a sweet little online dating website called GreatBoyfriends.com with my sister, E. Jean Carroll, advice columnist at ELLE. My years with GreatBoyfriends, which grew from our own single friends to hundreds of thousands in just months was testament to our premise that Pre-Owned, Pre-Approved, Pre-Adored EX- could capture the country's heartstrings and Oprah came calling. Soon after, GreatBoyfriends was dubbed "The most trusted namein online dating," and I give my clients my word that I will do my best to give them the same level of knowledge, enthusiasm, energy and loyalty that helped garner that praise.
