Born, raised and presently residing in Olmsted Falls. I currently serve as a fireman for the Canton City Fire Department. Choosing the life of a firemen at a young age was an easy decision, and a small part of what defines me. This is not the only definition of my life. I have broadened my horizons. Not only am I a fireman, but I am also a Realtor. I have a true passion for my work. Coming from a family of Real Estate investors, Real Estate was an easy choice for me. This is something I truly love. My entire working life has been at the service of helping people in the community and helping families. My style of work can be defined as hard working, nose to the grindstone with a sense of true grit. I do anything and everything possible that comes my way. I am not afraid of anything and will do whatever it takes to get the job done. My relationships are built on the concept of being your REALTOR FOR LIFE. This is a relationship business and I understand that. When the deal is done, our relationship is not.

I was born in Iowa and raised in Berea, OH. My interest in real estate began after graduating from Baldwin Wallace and working closely with home construction & renovation. I eventually did full home remodels on multiple properties, and I began managing a growing number of investment homes in the greater Cleveland area. Being a realtor allows me to use my experience and passion for real estate to help others find a home that best meets their needs. I will always put my clients' best interest first, with special focus on quality and value. Some of my hobbies include running, snowboarding, camping, automobiles, and home projects.

Krista Anderson

Krista Anderson

Realtor

I am a lifelong resident of Northeast Ohio, growing up in Sheffield Lake and then living the duration of my adult life in Avon, North Olmsted, and now Grafton. With over 22 years (& counting) as a licensed realtor, I also have a strong background in the legal world where I have worked as a litigation paralegal for the past 15 years. Having a combination of these skills gives you the reassurance that I am very detail-oriented and committed to making sure all the "T"'s are crossed and "I"'s are dotted in your transaction. One of my favorite things in real estate is working with first-time home buyers and educating them in the process of buying a home. Outside of work, you can find me spending time with my two adult children, my dad, or my friends, taking my dogs to the Metroparks (& spoiling them), riding my bike, reading, or enjoying the sunshine (when we have it)!

Spencer Hadbavny

Spencer Hadbavny

Realtor

My story starts in Portland, Oregon when I was born alongside my 3 siblings. At age 4, my family moved back to their roots in Cleveland. Diagnosed with cerebral palsy early on, I quickly learned how to adapt and do things in my own way, shaping me into the resilient person I am today. Growing up in Chagrin Falls, I graduated from Chagrin Falls High School in 2012. A mentor once spotted my hard work, persistence and natural charm and encouraged me to take a swing at sales. I swing I did ! I took on door to door sales, where I faced daily rejection head-on with a smile, reminding myself of H.G. Wells' words: "If you fell down yesterday, stand up today." All of these experiences fueled my passion for real estate. My patience, empathy, and ability to handle tricky situations make me a perfect guide for anyone buying or selling a home. I truly enjoy helping people and my mission is to make a lasting, positive impact on every client I work with !
