About Patti

About My husband and I discovered the incredible beauty of the laid-back Lower Keys in 1985. A few years earlier, with the good wishes of our parents, we put everything in storage in Ohio and moved to Florida to buy a sailboat and experience new adventures. After living aboard our 41’ Gulfstar Ketch for six years--spending time between Coral Gables, Ft. Lauderdale and the Bahamas--fellow sailors introduced us to the Lower Keys during the summer of 1985. We’ve been here ever since (the sailboat was sold long ago...) In December 1988 I obtained my real estate license, and so began this incredible journey helping countless people buy and sell their homes in the Keys, with lasting friendships developed along the way. Clients and friends know that I’m dedicated to this often-times crazy real estate business. I understand the importance of communication and attention to details, and have a terrific support staff to ensure excellent customer service. I take pride in being one of the top producing Realtors® in the Keys. Married in 1977, my husband and I also enjoy the extremely talented local music scene of the Keys. Dean builds exceptional, custom acoustic guitars out of local hardwoods, and I enjoy singing harmony with friends and local musicians. Our son was born in Key West—ironically on the day of my very first real estate closing the summer of 1989. We couldn’t be happier that he is back in the Keys.
