“Million Dollar Service, No Matter What Your Price Range”
With over 30 years of hands-on experience in real estate, I bring deep industry knowledge and a personal passion for helping clients achieve their property goals. I’ve proudly served Southern Illinois since 2004 as a licensed Realtor and became a Licensed Real Estate Broker in 2012. I’m a Graduate of the Realtor Institute (GRI) and a Certified Negotiation Expert (CNE), credentials that reflect my commitment to continued education and client advocacy.
I fell in love with beautiful Southern Illinois in 1993 when I married my husband, Eric Graves—a proud IBEW Local #702 Journeyman Wireman, employed at Southern Illinois Power Cooperative—and made his hometown of Marion, IL, our home. Together, we’ve raised four children here and embraced the vibrant, family-oriented lifestyle of the Heartland.
Real estate is not just my profession—it’s my passion. I invest in it personally and have decades of firsthand experience in building, buying, flipping, selling, owning and managing our E&A Properties, LLC, rentals . This comprehensive background gives my clients an edge, whether they’re buying their first home, expanding their investment portfolio, or selling a cherished property.
When you work with me, you gain access to my trusted network of lenders, inspectors, appraisers, contractors, and title professionals. My goal is to make your transaction smooth, successful, and stress-free. Once you are my client I am a resource for you to call well after closing day for real estate questions or community information. I am your go to source.
Outside of real estate, my family and I are always up for adventure. We love cross-country road trips, camping, kayaking, boating, hiking, biking, and snowboarding—often with our beloved Golden Retriever, Maverick, in tow. I enjoy country living, antiquing, gardening, tending to my flock of chickens and peacocks! I love to visit my "Big Kids" in Houston, TX and Nashville, TN..
The greatest compliment I can receive is a referral from past clients and friends. Thank you for your trust—I look forward to serving you and all your real estate needs!
