Sold for full asking price in under 10 days.
My home had previously expired with another agent — a good agent, but the home wasn't moving. Once the staging was in, the shift was immediate. I had lived in that home for 27 years. She organized a neighborhood farewell that gave me a chance to honor what that home meant and to say goodbye properly.
John Swaney
Sold above recent comps with multiple offers the first weekend.
Anya stepped in, pulled it all out, went out and bought new artwork and bedding herself, and restaged the room with a softer, more feminine feel — knowing women drive most home-buying decisions. The room transformed, and buyers responded. She doesn't just hand things off and hope for the best — she shows up, and she has a strong point of view about what will sell.
Sherry Greathouse
My home had expired with another agent before Anya took over the listing.
She recognized that my home's floor plan had real potential as a triplex conversion, and she repositioned the listing around that vision. She provided sketches and renovation estimates so buyers could see exactly what was possible. That creative repositioning brought in the right buyer. That kind of outcome doesn't happen by accident.
Jozo Lujic
An undaunted, strong negotiator.
From start to finish, the experience was excellent, especially given a curveball during the process. She gave us thoughtful and well-reasoned advice, and demonstrated the kind of market knowledge that only comes from years of experience in this area. We followed her recommendations with confidence at every step.
Sam Carpenter
Constant coordination, no surprises. The home sold.
Anya listed our home in South Jordan. We worked as a team. And the reason we were selling happened: we moved to be near family, with better business opportunities. That mattered more than the price. Grateful for her work.
Syed Ibrahim Hussain
Reliable, committed, and dedicated every time.

As a businessperson with multiple properties, I value working with professionals who are consistent and trustworthy — Anya is both.

Made buying a home a smooth transaction.
Thank you to Anya for using her real estate expertise and knowledge to make me comfortable and happy with my investment buying a home. She walked me through every step, answered all my questions, and made sure I understood each decision before I signed anything. I really appreciate you.

Five offers in three days. Sold above asking.
Our home had expired with another agent. We knew we needed a different plan. Anya took a fresh look at the home, got it ready, and relaunched it with a whole new look. We had five offers in the first three days and sold above asking. We didn't think that was possible.
