Patio Home

Patio homes are a popular choice in the Northeastern USA and are typically situated in charming neighborhoods or adjacent to golf courses. These cozy dwellings are characterized by their compact size and connected walls, offering a sense of community living. Distinct from townhouses, patio homes commonly offer a loft or an upstairs room in place of a full second floor. While they are called patio homes, not all of them have a patio. These attached residences provide ownership of the land beneath, similar to townhouses, and present a more budget-friendly housing alternative to detached houses. They are known by different names such as carriage, garden, cluster, or courtyard homes in various regions.

I’m a licensed real estate professional hanged with Long Realty Referral Associates in Arizona. I received my license in 2020 and was an active REALTOR® in Phoenix my first year. I moved to Michigan in 2021 and changed my designation from sales agent to referral agent which now allows me to serve people in any state in the USA and 70 other countries!

Meanwhile, for nearly a decade, I’ve worked in the Mortgage industry opening and closing mortgage loans. I have an in-depth understanding of the homebuying process from start to finish, so I know the value that great Realtors bring to the experience for homebuyers and investors. Especially first-time homebuyers.

My love of real estate began back in 2008 in Marketing where I was the coordinator of a magazine called Properties of the Southwest. I worked with high caliber Realtors creating their marketing materials and showcasing their clients’ properties in many prestigious magazines and The Wall Street Journal. Serving them gave me great insight into what makes top notch listing agents for clients selling properties.
