When it comes to energy, Ann O’Bryan is hard to beat. The top real estate agent for Latter & Blum in Mandeville for the past four years, O’Bryan is dedicated to providing her clients with the ultimate in dedication and service.

After 28 successful years as a dental hygienist, O’Bryan is the epitome of breaking out of a mold to pursue another career. “When you put your mind to something, you can accomplish anything. At the time I launched my career as an agent, I was in the position of having to support myself and I had to make it work; it was a great motivator.”

Now in her 10th year as a real estate agent, O’Bryan isn’t bashful about revealing the secrets of her continued success. “It’s always a thrill for me to know that I’ve helped someone find the right home for their family. I enjoy matching the needs of each family to the property and then seeing the result.”

O’Bryan is also very appreciative of the repeat business she has received over the years. “Since the northshore is a fairly transient market, I’ve worked with many of the same people in both buying and selling. Many times I work with companies who are relocating. We have much to be thankful for on the northshore, with property values continuing to rise, a good market for buying and selling, and great schools to educate our children.”

When people choose to list their home without an agent, O’Bryan is quick to point out the disadvantages. “A lot of issues come into play when buying or selling a home. If a buyer is non-represented, no one is looking out for his best interest. There are so many intricacies involved with inspections, contracts, etc. It’s my responsibility to see that everything is taken care of properly. It’s not just a matter of writing a contract and collecting a check; there’s much more involved. I want the best for my clients, so I’m willing to spend the extra hours and go the extra mile. It’s not always easy, but I’m passionate about what I do, and there’s a great deal of satisfaction in knowing I’ve provided a valuable service.”
