I enjoy being a real estate agent specializing in active adults and 55+ communities, especially when I've helped someone find their perfect home for retirement. With 30 years of experience in the Lancaster county area, I hold certifications as a Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES), Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR), Real Estate Negotiation Expert (RENE), and Seller Representative Specialist (SRS). My extensive knowledge and dedication have earned me numerous awards over the years. For 55+ homebuyers, Lancaster County offers a wealth of activities, from shopping and theater in Downtown Lancaster and Lititz to vibrant farmer's markets and outstanding restaurants. The Lancaster Central Market, dating back to 1731, is the nation's oldest continuously operating farmers market. Lancaster County features 29 covered bridges, also known as Kissing Bridges, scattered throughout its picturesque farmland. The area also enjoys an easy commute to major cities like New York, Washington, and Philadelphia. For those interested in 55+ communities, I advise visiting multiple communities to compare amenities, layout, HOA rules, and the overall atmosphere. Talking with both residents and community employees provides valuable firsthand insights into life within each community. On a personal note, I am a pond enthusiast and love our koi pond in the backyard. As a devoted cat and dog lover, I've had the joy of rescuing a few furry friends over the years.
