REALTOR®
As a REALTOR® with Windermere Real Estate/South Sound, Inc., I bring professional real estate expertise to every AFH transaction. From property valuation to closing, I work diligently to support your interests throughout the transaction.
Certified AFH Administrator
I’m not just a real estate agent—I’m a Certified AFH Administrator and AFH Real Estate Specialist. I understand DSHS regulations, licensing requirements, and property characteristics that may influence AFH suitability. This regulatory knowledge helps inform my real-estate-focused evaluation of AFH-related opportunities; all licensing and compliance decisions must be made independently and verified with the appropriate professionals.
Multilingual Services
I serve the Greater Seattle–Tacoma & Eastside AFH community in four languages: English, Romanian, Russian, and Ukrainian. Let’s discuss your goals in the language you’re most comfortable with.
AFH-Specific Real Estate Focus
I specialize in Adult Family Home real estate, including licensed AFHs, CHOW opportunities, and AFH-suitable or AFH-potential properties. My guidance is informed by regulatory context, property characteristics, and CHOW-related processes across Washington State, with a primary service focus in King, Pierce, Snohomish, Kitsap, and Thurston Counties.
How AFHMarketplace.com Supports AFH Clients

Whether you're an AFH buyer, seller, renter, landlord, or investor, the goal is the same: help you see AFH-related opportunities more clearly and connect you with real-estate-focused guidance from an AFH Real Estate Specialist, Certified AFH Administrator, and REALTOR®. As a Certified AFH Administrator, AFH Real Estate Specialist, and REALTOR®, I help you evaluate the real-estate characteristics that influence interest from qualified tenants — always within the boundaries of real-estate guidance only, never financial or operational consulting. Any operational or compliance information is provided solely by the seller. I do not provide AFH operational guidance, compliance evaluation, or licensing consulting.
