I am here to serve you!
Experience
- Have developed land
- Designed and built residences as well as commercial and industrial buildings
- Bought and sold houses and land in Germany, California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Montana, Wyoming and Minnesota.
- Owned commercial as well as industrial buildings and rentals
- Held real estate licenses in Arizona, Minnesota, Wyoming, North Dakota and Oregon; I am now a Principal broker in Oregon.
- I founded my own business "Sky Lodge Properties, Inc." in June of 2003 and my business in Oregon as of 2024 is Sky Lodge Investments LLC.
I thought I would be used to it by now, but if you move with kids and caboodle, there is a lot to consider and a lot of responsibility. I grew up in West-Berlin, Germany and schemed all my childhood about getting out of the city. Of course, at that time it was an island…(Fall of the Wall). When I was 17, I made it to Hamburg and lived there happily training horses and working in management training, until I was 27.
Then I ventured to the US and relocated to Sedona, Arizona. My adventurous spirit took me to Los Angeles where I started buying and selling real estate in the 70's and 80's just for myself. In 1985 I moved to the Southern Oregon Coast and did some more real estate developing, while raising my four children and finally getting a real estate license there. In the year 2000 I moved to Flagstaff, Arizona and made my AZ real estate license. I then moved to Red Lodge, Montana and I started my own real estate company there in 2003, being also licensed in Montana, Minnesota, North Dakota and Wyoming, where I settled in 2025 near the quaint town of Rogue River. My Montana license is still active while my Oregon license is fresh off the press - again.
I am having a lot of fun helping others to realize their dream regarding relocating into the mountains, a big ranch, small farm or just being able to grow a garden. Southern Oregon is in the growing zone 8 which is fantastic for getting self-sufficient when it comes to food. Many folks here have chickens and some even goats, a horse and a mini cow (they are about the size of a Golden Retriever!)
About the career as a Realtor
Knowing how hard it is to relocate and trying to find a Realtor that actually helps you a little and is not just out to get a commission, I decided to take up that profession and to do a better job than most. I made this website with as many helpful links as I can roundup, so newcomers would have an easier time.
This profession seems to be in my blood. In 1899 my grandfather was an architect in Berlin, Germany, and rebuilt East Prussia after WWI; my grandmother was a real estate broker in Berlin as well. My mom always took me to construction sites to show me what bearing walls are. It seems to me, I am a born broker - in business since 1899.. ;-)
