Just ask Dina Branham, Broker at Deluxe Properties in Delray<br />

Beach. “Allyson is one of the hardest working agents in the area.<br />

She is also one of the most awarded. As a local real estate broker<br />

myself (in the same area), I have a great amount of respect for her<br />

discipline and professionalism. It would be my pleasure to work<br />

with her on a property or client she represents. I congratulate her<br />

on all of her success.”<br />

Success is a variable term and one that most professionals take<br />

pride in. Sullivan is not shy about crediting her success to constantly<br />

reinventing herself, staying current, and thinking outside<br />

the box. To be successful in real estate, she says, one must also be<br />

a people-person with a relatable personality, extremely creative<br />

and resourceful.<br />

Well put.<br />

Staying on top is also an intricate process, but it comes natural to<br />

this Delray “go-getter.” “I knew selling real estate was perfect for me. I<br />

needed the flexibility of working for myself, setting my own schedule,<br />

and having no limits when it comes to growing my own business.”<br />

And grow it she has – beyond her initial dream. “When I came<br />

to Delray Beach I knew I had found a utopian landscape. The<br />

streets of Delray are lined with tourists that dream of owning<br />

a piece of the same paradise that I am fortunate enough to call<br />

home 365 days a year. I am always enthusiastic to accommodate<br />

them! I wake up every day and pinch myself because I get to do<br />

one of the things I love best – sell real estate in the most amazing<br />

location in the country!”<br />

Sullivan also has some hints on how to spruce up your home for<br />

minimal cost. She advises sellers to make sure the landscaping is<br />

inviting and attractive – especially the backyard. “A great backyard<br />

can sell a home!”<br />

She also suggests getting stylish window treatments – whether<br />

plantation shutters, accent curtains or light colored blinds. “You<br />

want the house to be light,” she adds.<br />

And lastly she has a wise word of advice to sellers. “Hiring a<br />

realtor is a good investment, not an expense. A good realtor adds<br />

value to a home and gives you good advice. Find someone who is<br />

a full-time realtor who knows their stuff.”<br />
