What I Love About This Home

I was the Real Estate Agent who sold out The Park, Banker’s Hill when it was newly constructed, and this property is truly one of the building’s most spectacular offerings.

This sophisticated abode presents an unparalleled lifestyle defined by awe-inspiring views, floor-to-ceiling glass walls, unmatched amenities, and an unbeatable location. Properties in The Park are always in high demand when they come on the market, and this home was no different. Thanks to my proven pricing and marketing plan, along with my proprietary list of potential Park buyers, I generated unprecedented interest in this property and set a record for not only this building but the entire Banker’s Hill neighborhood!
