Chris began her career in real estate in 1987 at the height of the housing boom. This dovetailed into co-founding a custom-home building company specializing in high-end homes in the Greater Washington, DC Metropolitan area. Seeing the greater potential in a property, accurately analyzing its value and experience negotiating terms, land & construction costs gives Cali an significant advantage over other agents, an asset you want on your team when shopping for a new home from your partner in real estate.
Chris enjoys working with her homeowners, focusing on understanding their needs and going the extra mile for her clients. These people often become life long partners. As Chris describes, “For a few months you talk to these people every day. Share their excitement, frustration, concerns, even their anxiety. They let you be a part of their hopes and dreams. This is a great honor which must be treated with respect, discretion, and a 110% commitment to making their transaction the smoothest they’ve ever had.”
Learning client’s needs, wants, and desires, and having an honest dialogue with them, has garnered Cali the respect and appreciation of her clients. Working with diplomats, government officials, and many other executives taught Chris a sensitivity for relocating and an understanding of the international clients. With passion, Chris always puts her clients needs first, working one-on-one with her clients rather than transferring those responsibilities to staff, providing the best individualized representation available.
Experienced through many markets over the years, Cali stands out as a winner. Earning a lifetime Achievement Award, the Re/Max 100% Club consistently year after year, and earning the prestigious CRS, Certified Residential Specialist degree which only 6% of REALTORS nationwide hold. A Graduate of the Realtor Institute, and a CDPE, Certified Distressed Property Expert shows the high value Chris places on staying current to better serve her clients's needs.
A devoted mother of four boys, Chris spends her off time with her sons, accepting their challenges to hike, sky-dive, rock-climb, water-
ski, and defying their taunts of “Mom can’t do it!”
