Let me Introduce Myself....

The first post in my first blog is somewhat of a nerve-wrecking writing experience. You want to make a good impression, you want to give sound real estate advice, but where to begin?

I'll make it simple and begin with me.

My name is Katy Schuster, real estate agent, mom, wife, hiker, biker and the list goes on and on. Like most of us who live and work in breath-taking Southern California, I'm a transplant but from the moment I arrived I was in love with this beautiful area and all that it offered. My husband and I call Escondido home along with our two beautiful kids, who I'm sure I'll talk about often. Zoe who is 2 years old came first and soon after, we were blessed with Zane, 14 months.

They are my life and everything I do I do for them. They are one of the reasons I got into real estate. A job I believe is flexible enough to allow me to be a present mom and one where I can still bring home the bacon and give them more than what I had growing up. Not that I had it bad, but I think all of us parents feel that way. We want our kids to have the best.

I started working in real estate in November 2013, but it was obvious from the first moment I began considering the profession that real estate would be my passion. Helping others to realize their dreams is more than I could ever ask for in a job.

Before working in real estate, my chosen career path was in communications. As a print reporter in Corpus Christi, I broke the international story of Dick Cheney shooting his friend and fellow hunter at a South Texas ranch. That story propelled me to a career in broadcasting where I worked as an on-air reporter in Phoenix, Arizona for KNXV TV (ABC15).

I returned to my hometown and began a new profession in public relations working with the tourism bureau in Corpus Christi, Tex. All my adventures were marvelous and helped me to gain unparalleled skills that contribute marvelously to real estate success.

It is in real estate that my heart lies and I know that together with my clients, I can help them find their dream home or get the best offer for their property. As an agent I will commit myself to the needs and wants of my client. I will assist them in understanding each step of the buying or selling process and be there every step of the way, at any hour.

Whenever you need me, I'll be there. Honesty, trustworthiness and real estate expertise. I will make your goals mine and help make your dream a reality. Take the first step today. Your dream is waiting.
