Kathy Shipley Biography
Just a little bit about my family & myself
IN 1975 I moved from Ft. Lauderdale to Grand Junction Colorado along with my husband and two daughters. We instantly fell in love with the area for its natural beauty, charming homes, and all the wonderful cultural and recreational opportunities it had to offer. After 30 years of living here, Grand Junction isn't just where we work or play it's where we call home. Our girls went to school here taking advantage of the excellent local school system and are now all grown up. One, still lives in Grand Junction and has given us a beautiful grandson (Trey), while our other daughter lives in Denver, where she has joined the Corporate world, and has given us two adorable Grandpuppies (bailey & riley).
I have worked in sales & marketing for over 20 years, but after many years of traveling I decided I needed to stay close to home. I decided to work for a very busy local real estate agent and I was with him for 2 ½ years, then I transferred to another Agent for another 2 ½ years. After I had gained all this experience in the real estate industry I realized… I could do this! So I studied, took the test and here I am, working hard for people like you! I have now been a real estate agent serving the Grand Junction Colorado for over three years and I have loved every minute of it!
Working with ERA I have gained a lot of knowledge for the local market and enjoy working together with our 30 + agents in our office. I've always taken pride in our philosophy at ERA Murphy & Associates where we work as a team to exceed our client's expectations. When you list with me you're not only choosing to work with an experienced agent you also have the entire ERA Murphy team on your side. I'll have our team of agents tour your home which gives us a better idea of what price we need to be at and what we need to do in order to get it under contract within YOUR time frame. I also offer an AON Home Warranty to all my listings which I believe helps both the Seller and the Buyer. These are just a few of the exceptional services I provide which I feel helps set me apart from the rest.
Buying or Selling a home can be one of the most important decisions you will make in your life time, and there is a lot to be considered. I urge you to contact me and put my professionalism and knowledge of the Grand Junction real estate market to work for you! With my experience and expertise I'm confident we'll make a great team.
Always There For You,
