Lesley Bio

A Property Valuator

Lesley Potter began her real estate career in 1994 when she was asked to fill in part time for the office manager at a real estate office in Shelbyville KY, where she lived for over 20 years and was a stay-at-home mom raising two children. 

Thus began a love for real estate as she served as office manager for 7 years then obtained her real estate license in 1998. After returning to UofL to finish up her BA in Business Management, Lesley worked in Insurance and banking as well as selling real estate for friends and family. In 2007 she decided to pursue real estate full-time, got the designation of a Certified Property Valuator and has not looked back. She recently joined Rick Shaw Realtors in 2022.

As a child, Lesley was always imagining and drawing house plans and labeling the rooms to see how differently they could be laid out to form something ‘unique’. She enjoys interior design, home staging and painting old furniture from shabby to chic. Lesley lives in Stone Lakes with her 2 dogs and 2 cats and has 3 rambunctious grandsons who keep her on her toes.
