About Joy

My Approach I have a unique perspective on buying and selling a home borne from my own experience of owning three homes during my 25 plus years as a resident of the North Shore. I understand the importance of matching your home buying and selling experience with your changing needs - buying your first home, raising a family, downsizing to an empty nest or creating a retirement home to "age in place." Your home is one of your largest investments and the place where you create some of the best memories of your life, and my objective is to help you find and protect that most important financial and personal asset. Personal Background After living in Hamilton for over twenty years where my husband and I raised two children who attended Hamilton-Wenham public schools, we moved to Rockport. While the process was daunting, it provided a new level of empathy for my clients! Change can certainly offer a new perspective and propel one to live more in the moment. The North Shore is a truly special place with each town having their own unique magical aspects to discover and relish. If you are thinking about making a change, I would love to help!
