I'm baaack.   If you read my blog before you know it was very personal and family oriented, as well as all about my crazy life in a blender (blended family).  If you know me well you know that I recently took the leap of faith into real estate full time.  I have probably called you.   If not, I will be calling you soon.  Please answer!

I will provide a brief history here.  I used to work for The Ryness Company, a national new homes sales and marketing company.  It was a dream job that I got very lucky to land and it lead me to many wonderful people and my first career love, real estate.  Don't get me wrong, I worked very hard!  I worked on the corporate side of real estate while at Ryness, although I earned my license in 2006.  If you know anything about new homes sales, you know what happened in 2008.  I was resilient.  I went back to school and earned my BA.  I became exceptionally entrepreneurial and held down many positions while earning my degree.  Fast forward to 2013.  I was working part time in real estate while maintaining a full time position at a digital marketing agency.  I liked the people, but it wasn't rewarding in the way I needed it to be.  I needed a challenge that I could win and be passionate about.  Yes, I know being passionate about something is a bingo buzzword, but it's the best way I can explain how I felt.

Fast forward to today.  I said I needed a challenge right?  Well I found my challenge and I am loving it.  Is it difficult?  Yep.   Is there an easy way to get ahead?  Nope.   I will elaborate more in future posts.

So, I am resurrecting my blog so you can follow my progress and perhaps even learn something about me, and even real estate.  I promise to keep it light and fun and real.  I post some hard core stats on my Facebook page, which I hope you will "like" (www.Facebook.com/SuzanneColemanRealEstate) and my website (www.SuzanneRColeman.com) has lots of informative articles as well as a home search feature for available listings from the Multiple Listing Service (MLS). 

Here on the blog I want to keep it honest, real and hopefully entertaining and maybe even funny!  I guess I will be funny next time.
