RED Properties / Principal Property Practitioner

More about Erna

Owner & Principal. Master Practitioner in Real Estate.

Coming from a (music) teaching background I find working with people inspiring and quickly realized that property is not about bricks and buildings, but all about building quality relationships.

After working for three great Real Estate companies since 2004, I started RED Properties in 2011 and absolutely love my job.

I have invested in a reliable, caring and professional hand-picked team who, from the initial visit to the successful sale, will treat you, your home and your belongings as if it were our own. And our clients will tell you that in this day and age – that’s priceless.

Most of my business is from referrals and 96% of my clients refer me to family and friends, which I truly treasure.

I believe in hard work, always striving to improve, honesty, staying positive, having faith, keeping things simple, treating everyone with respect and enjoying where you are on your way to where you are going.

I’ve been married to Michael for 30 wonderful years and we are blessed with two adult children, Victor and Stephan. I enjoy reading, hiking, action movies and brunching with my family and friends.
