Experience in real estate sales, interior design, home renovations and new construction sets her apart with a unique combination of skills. Having over 20 years experience in sales, she is an adept listener, a strategic negotiator, a creative problem solver and a perceptive business professional who can translate your goals into reality.Trudy has a passion for helping people with their real estate needs. She puts her design skills to work for sellers to showcase the best features of the home. She is instrumental in helping prepare a home for sale and assists with staging it to sell faster and for more money. When working with buyers, "It's important to find the right property to create a home that suits one's individual lifestyle needs. Even more than style, it's also important to consider functionality and maintenance requirements." In showing a home to purchase, "It matters how the rooms are laid out - the arrangement & floor plan make a difference in how a home flows and how someone lives in the home."Trudy has a BA degree in Management and Marketing from the University of South Carolina, an MS degree in Interior Design from Winthrop University, is a graduate of The Fortune Academy of Real Estate and has participated in the ERA Top Gun Academy, one of the most advanced real estate training programs in the country, and is certified as a relocation specialist.As a South Carolina native, a "Sandlapper" at heart, Trudy's love of the SC beaches & the Lowcountry drew her back to her home state. She has enjoyed working with clients in Charleston, Mt. Pleasant, West Ashley, Isle of Palms, James Island, Johns Island, Folly Beach, N.Charleston, Summerville, & Goose Creek, since relocating from Charlotte, NC, in 2001.In her spare time, she enjoys volunteering in the community, spending time with her family, photography & the outdoors, appreciating all the beauty of the Lowcountry.
