Finding a rental is only one part of relocating to a new city.
I own a Philadelphia real estate brokerage, have been a Realtor for 22 years, and am a licensing & compliance specialist focused on landlord and permitting compliance in the city of Philadelphia. I’m also a degreed paralegal with more than two decades of experience navigating Philadelphia real estate.
In other words, I know Philadelphia real estate—and I know all sorts of things that can make your move easier.
I don’t simply help you find a property. I help you understand the city, explore neighborhoods, identify the areas that meet your needs, tour properties, navigate the rental process, review key property-compliance information, coordinate move-in requirements and handle the countless details that need to happen here while you may still be hundreds—or thousands—of miles away.
You handle your life. I’ll handle Philadelphia.
MY 8-step commitment
1. GET TO KNOW YOU
3. NEIGHBORHOOD TOURS
1. GET TO KNOW YOU
I NEED TO KNOW YOUR WANTS AND NEEDS
A detailed relocation assessment helps me understand how you live, what matters to you, what you want—and what you absolutely don't. Your budget, housing preferences, commute, transportation, parking, space needs, amenities and priorities become the blueprint for your relocation.
2. EXPLORE ONLINE
3. NEIGHBORHOOD TOURS
1. GET TO KNOW YOU
PHILADELPHIA HAS OVER 250 DISTINCT NEIGHBORHOODS!
Based on your stated criteria, I'll curate virtual resources that allow you to explore Philadelphia neighborhoods from wherever you are. You decide which areas interest you, and together we narrow the field before you ever get on a plane or into a car.

EXPERIENCE PHILADELPHIA IN PERSON.
Spend one or two days experiencing the areas you've selected in person with me!
We'll explore neighborhoods, housing styles, transportation, shopping and the practical things that matter to your daily life—with time to stop, look around, ask questions and enjoy lunch along the way.
Neighborhood tours can accommodate up to 8 people.
4. FIND YOUR NEW HOME
6. VERIFY BEFORE YOU COMMIT
3. NEIGHBORHOOD TOURS
NOW WE CAN SHOP WITH PURPOSE!
Once you've identified where you'd like to focus, I coordinate property tours—live or virtual—and help you evaluate the actual rental options available.
I handle scheduling, communication, offer/lease negotiations and the moving pieces that come with securing the right property.
5. SAFELY APPLY

MY "SAFE SEARCH" SYSTEM
I'll create a professional renter profile designed to present your qualifications while reducing unnecessary distribution of sensitive personal information. The goal: fewer unnecessary applications, fewer unnecessary fees and a more organized path from interested renter to qualified applicant.

I VERIFY, VERIFY, VERIFY
My background extends well beyond showing properties. As a Philadelphia real estate broker, licensed L&I expediter and degreed paralegal, I know what to look for—and where to look for it. I'll conduct a property compliance overview to identify key licensing, ownership, use, certification and disclosure information before you commit.

THE THINGS THE LANDLORD PROMISED TO REPAIR, REPLACE OR INSTALL....
I'll track agreed-upon repairs, cleaning and punch-list items, communicate with the appropriate parties and document their status before move-in. When practical, I'll conduct a final readiness walkthrough so you're not discovering unfinished promises while standing in your new home with moving boxes.
