Choosing a place to live is not a decision Shiva takes lightly. Having lived and traveled around the globe, she understands the importance of finding just the right place to call home. Her background and life experience make her committed to helping her clients find the place that suits them best. As a former CPA and tax accountant, who opened and operated a successful business, Shiva has spent her entire career acquiring the skills that make her a successful, sought-after agent. Her extensive background in finance makes her a qualified negotiator, who tirelessly advocates for her clients. Her marketing expertise enables her to highlight the best features of her clients’ homes to achieve maximal market exposure. Shiva recognizes the complexity of real estate transactions; to combat this she builds relationships, utilizes her problem-solving skills, and follows a self-created systematic process to ensure the smoothest journey possible for her clients. Communication is the foundation of Shiva’s business. She prides herself on being responsive by providing personal undivided attention from start to finish. Real estate is often time sensitive, so she aims to provide her clients with the most up-to-date information at all times. A Bethesda resident for nearly 30 years, Shiva raised a child and recently built her own home in the area, making her well-versed in the process. As well as the metro area’s best offerings, resources and vendors. She values honesty and integrity and prides herself on being a good listener and an authentic and transparent, full-service advisor. Whether her clients are buying, selling (or both), she not only guides them through the process, she looks out for their best interests every step along the way. Shiva’s mission is to maximize profit and satisfaction for her clients.
