“My team brings the experience and wisdom we’ve gained along the way to one of life’s biggest decisions,” she adds. “This is the bulk of our work, it’s how we earn our keep, and it’s gratifying to know that, to the greatest extent, we’ve been able to spare the client from the brunt of the stress.”

She feels her team’s energy and synergy are one of keys to their market strength. “In today’s face-paced market, especially in the Newport area, you have to have a team of professionals that support the transaction from start to finish. I’m very fortunate to have Linda Wheeler, and Tony Siok working with me. We share the same work ethic, goals and enthusiasm. Without our team support, we could not even begin to approach the stringent needs of our clients.”

As with her approach to everything, Coleen strives to set and achieve the highest standards possible for her real estate team and for herself. “I demand a lot of myself and I demand a lot of my team. I don’t ask them to do anything I wouldn’t do. They see my perseverance and dedication.”
