Sheryl moved to the Sacramento region in1996 from Long Beach, CA. She's lived in Elk Grove, Rancho Cordova and El Dorado Hills so she knows these areas particularly well. She joined the REO branch of Smith Real Estate Services, Inc. in 2008 to run the operations and work with buyers. Prior to that, Sheryl was, and still is, a commercial real estate broker since 2004. Her transactions include retail, office and land sales as well as retail, office and industrial leasing.
Her quest for knowledge includes earning the CCIM designation, which is considered the MBA of commercial real estate early in her commercial brokerage career. She achieved both the PSC (Pre-Foreclosure Certification) and CDPE (Certified Distressed Property Expert) in order to more effectively help sellers understand their options when faced with a property that is worth less than the current mortgage.
Sheryl has the gift of making the complex simple so she is particularly adept as helping buyers understand how to realize their dream of home ownership in this market of bank owned homes and short sales.
For fun, Sheryl's passions are wine-tasting and travel. In fact, decisions on where to travel are often based on if there is a wine region nearby. So far, she's been to Spain, Italy and Greece. In the United States, she's been to most of the wine regions in California as well as Walla Walla in Washington and the Williamette Valley in Oregon.
