Get to Know Emma Parker!

Get to know your agent, Emma Parker!

We asked Emma a few questions, and here's what she had to say.

1) What do you love most about working in real estate?
- I love connecting with old & new friends to be able to help them with their real estate goals and transitions!

2) What is your favorite thing about Rhode Island?
- My favorite part about living in RI is living near the ocean! There's something so special about being right down the road from the water year-round.

3) In your experience, what do clients first look for in a home? 
- In my experience, clients typically have some sort of driving motivation to move from their current housing situation. Whether that be as specific as wanting a different kitchen layout to as broad as wanting to be in a totally different location, there’s usually a driving force that motivates a client’s home search

4) What is your best advice for a seller in today’s market?
- Best advice for a seller in today's market is to understand that the market is shifting, so it's important to be open to an honest conversation with your trusted realtor to determine the best listing strategy based on your local market.

5) Why work with Edge?
- I moved to Edge from a large corporate-owned brokerage. While I have nothing but good things to say about where I started, I was really looking for a more local, close-knit, technologically-savvy brokerage to grow my business in. I landed at Edge and couldn’t be happier!
