Get to Know Me

Meet Libby – Broker at Cross Street!

Specializing in residential sales and luxury rentals, Libby’s got a knack for turning the process into a seamless, enjoyable experience. Teaching is in her DNA, and now she channels that passion into guiding you through finding your dream home. For Libby, it’s not just about a transaction; it’s about the joy of knowing she’s helped you discover your perfect space.

Real estate isn’t just a gig for her; it aligns with her childhood interests in design and architecture, thanks to her mom’s love of HGTV and her grandfather’s career as an architect. Plus, she prioritizes responsiveness, addressing those pain points others often face in the real estate hustle – you’ll always be able to reach her! Punctual might as well be her middle name.

Libby enjoys riding horses, capturing life through her lens, or hitting the slopes. Thoughtful, loyal, and empathetic, she brings these qualities to every aspect of her life.

According to her clients, Libby’s the real deal—knowledgeable, caring, friendly, and totally trustworthy. And don’t even get her started on her can’t-live-without essentials: Ben & Jerry’s Half Baked, lip gloss, a rainbow of highlighters to color-code her planner, music-filled headphones, and her trusty camera for all those picture-perfect moments.
