I am a long time resident of the Northern Virginia area. I have lived in Prince William County for 35+ years. I'm married and have one Back in the last 80's my husband & I owned a deli in Manassas and decided to sell it. This is when I decide to go into real estate. I have always had a career that involves serving people (ie. made them their favorite sandwich, soup, salad). Prior to that I made them look good (I was a hair dresser). Being very connected to the community I felt I could help some of these same people with the biggest financial decision in their lives--buying a home.
I have been a full-time real estate consultant since 1989. I am the owner of Assist 2 Sell Jacobs Team Buyer & Sellers Realty since 2005. Prior to that I was top sale associate with Re/Max & Long & Foster Realtors. I am a member of the Greater Manassas Chamber of Commerce since 1990., an honored to serve as their Chair in '04-'05. I have served as Chair Elect, VP of Programs & Membership Service for two years overseeing five committees. VP of Membership Recruitment & Retention. Chair of the Exhibit Committee for two years that was voted Committee of the Year several times. I've also been voted Member Of The Month and have been awarded a Gold Star Member. In '01 I was voted Chamber Member of the Year.
Along with contributing my time to the chamber I also do volunteer work. I am current VP Habitat For Humanity and serve on the site selection and family selection committee. I have been awarded Volunteer of the year,raised money for SERVE (a local shelter),a celebrity waiter,locked up for MDA twice, and recently I did the Light the Night Walk for Leukemia.
As my business grew I found it hard to give my clients the great attention I am known for. So in January 1998, I brought on two Buyers Agents and formed 'Jacobs Team Buyers and Sellers Realty'. It was a perfect match. My Team is very connected to the community and value the relationships we have with our clients before, during and after the transaction. Once a client always a client -- you have us for life.
In May '05 I decided to open my own office. I knew there was a better way to serve my clients and I found that with the Assist 2 Sell franchise. Because of it's unique marketing strategies it is one of the fastest growing discount real estate companies nationwide.
