My real estate business has been growing, yes, even in this down market. I’ve been cautious in creating a team, but have decided that in order to best serve my clients, it’s time to grow.
Today, I’d like to introduce you to Calie Waterhouse. I met Calie about five years ago, when I was actively attending the AZREIA meetings in downtown Phoenix. Calie was one of two stagers, presenting at one particular meeting. My husband and I talked with her afterwards, and then ended up hiring her several times to help us stage properties we were selling. Several of my clients also used Calie’s services to sell their homes, and were always extremely pleased with the results. She provided top notch service and a great product. Over the past year, Calie decided it was time to try something new.
So, I’m very happy to announce that Calie is now a licensed REALTOR®, working with me, as an assistant. Beside her great eye for getting properties ready for market, Calie loves taking photos, and she’s a computer whiz. With these talents and skills, she will be working with me to keep listings in their best showing condition and enhancing our already extensive on-line marketing capabilities for selling your home.
Welcome, Calie!

Fabulous! Calie is fabulous. Dru is fabulous. It’s a fabulous moment!
Now when you two get ready to leave the John Hall mothership and work for a progressive (and fabulous!) “boutique brokerage”, well, you know who to call….

Congratulations Dru! Welcome Calie!
It’s great to see you grow. I’m hoping to hear more from Calie on her day to day duties. I could use some tips on the whole staging aspect. I can say from experience that a home that shows well, sells much faster than a home that looks like a cluster…
Have a great time!

Calie and I have been talking for quite some time, and I’m truly excited to be working with her again - she is a pro, with a lot of great insights. I’m hoping that she’ll be contributing here every now and then.
Thanks to you all for jumping in and giving her such a warm welcome!

This is so exciting! It seems there can’t be a better combination than Dru and Calie. Congratulations to both of you. It will be fun to hear of all the exciting things you two cook up. Or would that be stage up? Or would that be list up? Or would that be the best real estate pros in the valley giving their all and their best for their clients. Way to go!!!

Hi Yvonne, We do have some pretty cool plans cooking. It’s so great to have Calie back in the mix after her brief hiatus! She already did her magic this week on our newest listing, which goes on-line today. It’s amazing to watch her move things around, and then to see the photographers eyes light up when they walk in to shoot the slide show and streaming videos. And now, she’s staging the on-line presentation, too. Pretty cool.
