I possess a profound understanding of the challenges that individuals from the LGBTQ+ communities and other underrepresented groups may encounter whether in the process of purchasing, selling or simply seeking to know and understand the value of their homes. I am committed in providing an experience devoid of judgement, focusing solely on the real estate needs of you and your family. Having been a resident in a remarkably diverse community for three decades, marked by a vibrant mix of ethnicities and sexual orientations, I bring a distinctive perspective to the real estate industry. My personal connections extend to family and friends who are integral members of the LGBTQ+ community, allowing me to empathize with their needs, desires and the unfortunate encounters with criticism as they exercise their right to choose their ideal neighborhood or community. Professionally, I hold dual certifications as a Certified Residential Real Estate Appraiser and a Licensed Realtor. The journey began with achieving State Certified Residential Appraiser status in 2006, followed by becoming a Licensed Realtor in 2009. Additionally, I take pride in owning and operating my own Real Estate Appraisal Practice and am a licensed Realtor performing Realtor services under Riley Jackson Real Estate Inc, located in Olympia, WA. Your real estate journey with me in not merely a transaction, it's guided by a genuine commitment to understanding and fulfilling the diverse needs of every client while ensuring a supportive and personalized experience. I look forward to working with you! Cherie
