Sarah Monsarrat
Registered Trainee Appraiser
I started in a career of local/regional advertising sales where I was able to help many local business owners market their personal dreams and passions into successful and profitable careers. After 15 years in the advertising sales position, I took a leap to work towards my own passions involving real estate and property. I recognized that my marketing knowledge, selling experience, and interpersonal skills could be invaluable to homeowners as they complete some of the most important transactions of their life. Within 5 years of being an Affiliate Broker, I realized my interests and passions within the career went well beyond the “sale” of real estate and I began the journey of attaining my Certified Residential Appraisal license. I have been blessed with the opportunity to be trained within the well-known and highly respected Dunn & Metz Appraisal Group and look forward to continuing to grow in the field.
