I am the proud owner of Smart Partners Realty (Est. 2011), based out of Cary, North Carolina. I am married to Chris Johnson, who is the Town Engineer for Garner, NC. I began my Realtor career in 2005 as a means of working out of my home while taking care of three boys. Little did I know how much I would come to enjoy teaching and empowering my clients to manage one of the most important decisions in their lives!
Background: I have lived in the Triangle area since 1990. After graduating Summa Cum Laude in 1997 from NC State University with a BA in Business, I began my professional career in Corporate Finance. I was soon lured to the technology sector as a Software Consultant. I worked for several years as a Software Design and Implementation Consultant. When my husband and I moved from Garner to Cary in 2004, we used a discount brokerage, from which I truly came to understand the mantra “you get what you pay for.”
Knowing what I know now, we lost thousands of dollars through our home sale and purchase by going with a discount brokerage. I have been determined ever since to build a great Real Estate brokerage where our clients are informed and empowered every step of the way. And the best part is, we are a FULL Service Brokerage without the overhead costs of a Brick and Mortar shop.
I love what I do, I am good at it, and I respect what you bring to the table. Working together, we are a Smart Partnership for success!
