New (old) Job!

I am happy to annouce that I not only have a new job but I'm working in a whole new field and I am happier than I have been in a long time!

I am officially a Real Estate Agent!  I am working with Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in Maryland.  

I actually worked as a Realtor from 2005-2007 but moved onto property management and then stumbled into event planning in early 2008.  I really thought that I would love event planing but to be honest I never really did, it wasn't bad but it just wasn't for me and for years I've been dying to get back into real estate.

When I found out in March that we had lost a major contract and there may be downsizing within the company I immediately signed up to take the RE license class again (I let my license lapse when I left the field so I had to take the class again) and I found that after only 2 classes I felt like I was using my brain again and learning so much so I knew that this was where I needed to be. I waited until decisions were made at my job before I made any moves though. 

I passed my state licensing exam on June 26th so I am licensed to sell anywhere in the state of Maryland.  I will specilize in the county I live in but since MD is such a small state I really can work in any counties that I know and feel comfortable in.  So if you know anyone buying or selling a home in Maryland send them my way!

I'm working on setting up my website, twitter, and a real estate blog (which will offer general real estate buying/selling info and MD specific info) so once I have all of these rolling I will let you all know.

Thanks again for all the encouragement and positive vibes you have been sending me! The blog world really is full of nice, genuine people and I appreciate you all.
