Behind every move, there's a story that matters…

Real estate has been part of my life for over 26 years. But the story starts before that.

My first job was as an account executive at an advertising agency. It wasn't glamorous, but it taught me something I carry with me to this day: how to put the client first. That experience shaped everything: how I run my business, how I treat people, and what I expect from myself.

I always knew I wanted to get into real estate. What drew me was the independence, the idea that no one could limit what I could build. No ceiling, no office walls, no one else deciding my future. When I got my license in January of 2000, I delivered the Cleveland Plain Dealer while I built my business from the ground up. It was the perfect career when my daughter Chelsea was young because I never missed a thing. Now that she's a grown adult, and a licensed Realtor herself, I get to build toward the future I want.

My husband Tim and I are empty nesters now, navigating the same kind of transitions I help my clients with every day. We're planning for retirement, figuring out finances, and dreaming about what's next: a condo on the beach, a place on Kelleys Island, maybe a cabin in Tennessee. I'd love to retire Tim someday. The point is, I get it. I'm not just helping clients through life changes. I'm living them too.

The name The TLC Group comes from our family initials: Tim, Lisa, and Chelsea. It stands for tender loving care, but it also represents the people who inspire everything I do.

Chelsea and I love having adventures together. We traveled all over when she was a competitive cheerleader, and now we take mom-daughter trips for concerts and shopping. Those moments with her are everything. Watching her grow into a licensed Realtor and knowing she's the one who will carry this business forward someday is one of the proudest things I've ever experienced. I'm building something I can hand off to her, and that means the world to me.

I don't just work with everyone. I'm selective about the clients I serve. Every relationship starts with a consultation to make sure we're a good fit. When I commit to someone, it's because I genuinely care about helping them achieve their goals, whatever those are. My approach is simple: Why are you considering this move? What gets better if you do? What's holding you back? And how can I help you get there?

People tell me I'm even-tempered, professional, and easy to work with. That I keep things calm when things get stressful. That I'm a problem solver who finds solutions when others see dead ends. That means the world to me, because at the end of the day, this business is about people, not properties.

“Lisa is even-tempered, professional, and always finds a solution. She made the entire process feel calm and manageable.”

When I'm not helping clients navigate their next chapter, you'll find me on a health and wellness kick. I work out regularly and I'm always experimenting with clean recipes. I'm a total coffee lover, a sucker for a good scary movie, and I always have a book on the nightstand (the scarier, the better). My husband and I love checking out new breweries on the weekends. IPAs are my weakness. We love exploring new places together, and I'd spend every spare moment at the beach if I could.

I'm a lifelong Northeast Ohio resident. I grew up here, raised my family here, and I currently live in Brunswick. I know Medina County and Southwest Cuyahoga County inside and out because they're my home too.

If you're thinking about your next move, for any reason, I'd love to hear your story.
