Why hire Sierra
Selling or buying real estate is a huge financial commitment.
Representing Buyers is far more than just "finding you a house."
As a team we need to determine what it takes to get you the home of your dreams, yet not create any unnecessary risk as you make one of the biggest financial decisions of your life.
Hire me as your Buyer's Advisor →Any agent can put a sign in your yard.
An experienced, dedicated agent will guide you toward a successful closing. Working primarily as a Listing Broker, you will benefit from my "outside of the box" thinking to market your home and my experience negotiating all terms of the contract.
Hire me as your Listing Advisor →Regardless of the property condition, these clients will absolutely receive my complete attention.
Having worked with one of the top Trust and Probate Attorneys and several Fiduciaries in the Valley, I've learned what it takes to ensure the Beneficiary receives top dollar for their property.

About Sierra
Experience Matters, and setting clear expectations from the beginning is paramount when deciding to buy or sell real estate. I've been selling real estate since 2011, starting my career in Oregon before moving to Arizona in 2017. Today I'm an Associate Broker with Russ Lyon Sotheby's International Realty and part of Lyon's Elite, and before that I served as a Designated Broker overseeing more than 50 agents.
"When working with me, you will be speaking with me. I do not have a team of ten, so hopefully you like me, because we'll be conversing and strategizing together."
I pride myself on going after life with tenacity and dedication. If you are looking for a Realtor® who will represent you in the same way, connect with me.

The Running Radius
Real estate broker and runner enthusiast. The pockets I run through most mornings are the ones I sell in. Here's what each one actually is.
Citrus-grove lots and flood irrigation, 44th to 68th Street. The original.
1950s ranches and tear-down economics. Where the Running Radius started.
The corridor between the two. Condos to estates, Camelback Road south to Thomas.
Gated enclaves, golf, and the Biltmore Heights renovations.
Old Town to McCormick Ranch. Her office, and nine years of sold history.
Central Avenue, the Murphy Bridle Path, older money, walkability.

Testimonials
What makes Sierra special is that she genuinely cares about her clients. We never felt rushed or pressured, and we always knew she had our best interests at heart.
If one could test the limits of a realtor, we tested Sierra's, and she still speaks to us! We made an impulsive decision to purchase a home in Scottsdale and despite our many freak-outs during the purchase process, Sierra hung in there with us. She patiently advised us on our options, our rights, and the pros and cons of the property. And here we are 16 months later, in that very house, loving Scottsdale and over the moon that Sierra kept us from screwing up the deal. She's a smart, tireless, resilient, and battle-tested pro.
We interviewed a few agents, however selected Sierra as she was a stand out professional and expert as a Listing Agent. She ensured the home was properly priced and marketed given the market conditions. The home was being sold due to a death in the family, which created a delay with title, however with Sierra's experience in estate sales she was easily able to overcome the challenge and keep everything on track. Thank you Sierra!
We loved working with Sierra in the search for our Portland home! She is very knowledgeable and thoroughly professional. We are new to the area so we appreciated her excellent guidance in terms of neighborhoods and location. She very quickly picked up on our preferences and was able to steer us either toward something we might like, or away from other properties based on her knowledge of the market. In short, Sierra was a delight to work with and we highly recommend her as an agent.
We highly recommend Sierra. She is always professional, knowledgeable about the Portland market, and an expert at the necessary paperwork. After looking at several houses, and not finding the right one, Sierra went to the extra effort of contacting the realtor for a house which had previously been listed, but was not currently on the market. This is the house that we purchased.
Sierra went above and beyond to help us, as first time home buyers, to find the home that we wanted. We had very specific requirements and a tight budget during a seller's market. I was honestly surprised at the amount of patience that Sierra exhibited as well as her calm demeanor when faced with challenging situations. The amount of effort that she put in is not the standard. I know this, because she wasn't the first agent that I asked for help from.
