May can advise clients which opportunity to capitalize on and how real estate investments can pay off. She has managed a number of complex estate valuations and property sales.

Becoming known as the Re/Max Landmark "Cyber-Chick," May understands how to find and compare properties in order to determine the highest and best use of land and property. Belonging to every good listing and search service, and working the list servers of associations and the best colleagues in real estate, May knows how to work them. Her Internet capabilities even reach around the world when this makes sense.
May's market research background really helps here, too. She knows how to find and make connections with businesses and investors for developing properties. Her parents were entrepreneurs and commercial real estate investors. She learned early that there was more money in real estate than in most businesses.
"These days, a marketer is needed to sell property. May goes above and beyond most agents! She establishes a website dedicated to the project. She targets audiences and engages the appropriate people with a multi-dimensional marketing and sales outreach with a combination of information, education, and a strategic planning and consultive team approach," said Sally Koss, the broker of 165 Re/Max Landmark agents.

From another perspective, she has worked to conserve open space where it makes sense as the highest and best use and sometimes most profitable and financially feasible alternative to maxing out a development for a property.
