About CJ:

CJ KNOWS AND UNDERSTANDS THE VENICE REAL ESTATE MARKET. Since 1987 she has specialized exclusively on selling homes in Venice ... long before 'niche' and 'target' marketing were buzz words. It has always been her firm belief that she can best serve her clients with in-depth knowledge of a small market vs. a little knowledge of a wide area. Venice is a unique and diverse community. Each neighborhood has its own character. Each neighborhood appeals to a different buyer. FOR SELLERS: To obtain the highest possible sales price for your home, the marketing must reach the right buyers with the right message. CJ has the network and experience to do this. FOR BUYERS: CJ can help you match your dream with a realistic purchase ... within a budget that is comfortable for you. Her years of experience in Venice sales is invaluable to you as you determine how much to offer for a home.

CJ's philosophy is "VENICE SERVICE, VENICE STYLE." She is very much in tune with the people who buy and sell homes in Venice and shares common interests and lifestyles with her clients ... a casual informality; an entrepreneurial background in art, architecture, design, computers, publishing and marketing; a love of being close to the ocean; an enjoyment of sail boat racing, canoeing, biking, golf, yoga, pilates and walking her dog. She is/has been involved in the Venice community organizations/boards including the Venice Garden Tour, Venice Chamber of Commerce, Venice Canals Association and elected 2005-2006 Treasurer of the Venice Neighborhood Council, and has a true commitment to Venice as a way of life!
