Ramona Cress

A graduate of East Tennessee State University as a respiratory therapist, I owned and operated a medical equipment company for 15 years. After selling my medical equipment business, I wanted to start a new career in a field that had always been my passion, real estate. I embarked on my new career in 2005 when I joined forces with RE/MAX Checkmate in Johnson City. The years I spent managing my previous business taught me many valuable skills. It taught me to listen to the needs and goals of my clients while educating them on the ever-changing real estate market.

As your realtor, I incorporate the skills of other professionals as needed. For instance, when listing your home for sale, I work with a videographer who will provide a professional video of your home. THis video is then posted to my professional internet sites to assure you receive the best marketing possible, for selling your home. I will take many photographs and write a professional description of your property, using keywords to engage the interest of potential buyers.

For the home buyer, I will assist you through the entire process from finding a home to moving in. Whether this is your first home purchase or you have bought many homes, I will be there to provide vital information to allow you to make the best decisions. I can provide you with a list of reputable lenders, inspectors and contractors to answer your questions and ensure of peace of mind along the way.

I continually educate myself on the changes, laws and trends that shape the future of the real estate industry. I feel a deep commitment to be the best I can be when assisting my clients with the largest investment of a lifetime.

When I am not working, I enjoy raising and working with my Friesian horses, playing with my four dogs and spending time with my husband and best friend, Dan.

I want to thanks my past and present clients for the trust and confidence they have placed in me, which has allowed me to be successful in the real estate industry.
