2015- My Year in Review

2015 was another great year for me.

I added two new assistants- Claudia Brodzinski who graduated from Mizzou last May and is my full-time aid & Blake Anderson who is a Junior at SLU and handles the technology & e-marketing side of the business. They have been a wonderful addition! Kelli Graf continues to be my licensed assistant.
Just like a house needs a little renovation periodically, my blog sites needed to be spruced up. Blake helped move St. Louis Style Blog & Pike County Living to WordPress and modernized the look! St. Louis Style Blog surpassed 1,000,000 hits at the end of the year. We also added Clayton Style Blog.
My email finally moved away from AOL to [email protected]
I chaired The Sheldon’s architectural tour and gala. We featured 3 important contemporary homes designed by Philip Durham, Louis Saur and Adrian Luchini.
We had some great PR hits for my listings. The New York Times picked up two of my listings for separate articles of their Sunday print addition article- What Can Buy For $XX. One of the listings was the fabulous Bernoudy home on Osage Ridge in Augusta. The other was a Ralph Fournier masterpiece in Chesterfield. Architecture For Sale picked up three of my listings to be included on their site. My Ralph Fournier and William Bernoudy listings are now on a site that features Frank Lloyd Wright homes for sale and more!

Here are my numbers:

$29,317,998 in sales with 57 transactions
40 Listings sold with an average list price to sale price of 96%
17 Properties purchased by my Buyers with the average purchase of 91% of list price to sale price
I was ranked #3 in total sales in the Central Area (CWE, U City, Ladue School District, Parkway North, Parkway Central, Kirkwood, Webster Groves, Clayton, Richmond Heights) Please keep in mind that this figure does not weed out real estate “teams” in the ranking.
I was ranked #2 if you look at just CWE, U City, Ladue Schools and Clayton.

Come back tomorrow and I will outline the exciting things in store for 2016!
