Cathy has been a Realtor with VIP Realty for over 21 years. Cathy moved to Sanibel from Franconia, NH where she was in the hospitality business as owner of the Rivagale Inn and the Gale River Motel with her husband Fred. Moving to Sanibel was a long time dream that finally came true. Being able to sell real estate and help folks achieve their life long dreams has been very rewarding. For many years Fred and Cathy worked as a team, but last year Fred decided to semi-retire. During the off season we do enjoy traveling with our RV and checking out National Park and visiting family that is spread all across the country. Thanks to the internet we are always “connected” and continue to work and care for our clients 24/7. Call me any time with questions or assistance with purchasing or selling your home, condo or vacant land on Sanibel, Captiva and Fort Myers, FL.
