Why are you a Realtor? I Love working with People and hearing their stories, Each day it’s something new no two days are the same and because we have new challenges all the time I never stop learning formally and informally, It provides me with chances to do good and help people with their moving it is high on the list of stressful things to do, so when I’m able to ease stress and burden for my clients and to help them get where they want to go, it feels good.
You get to solve mysteries, husband likes newer construction, she’s drawn to vintage homes … What house will we find that they will agree on? It starts as a mystery, but you get to help solve it … and always do! Solving mysteries is one of the more fun things I do.
Provides an Outlet for creativity… brochures, choosing the right photos, listing verbiage, writing a blog … They all sort of scratch the creative itch. You won’t get fired or laid off (unlike the corporate world), Starting up, building business, surviving downturns … None of that comes easy … On the contrary, it’s really, really hard (at least it was/is for me). But if you can do it, you can make a decent living, and no one can take your job away. I like that. And of course, I do love houses Any agent will admit that liking people and houses is not reason enough to do this job. Liking people and houses is only the tip of the iceberg! but with that said, I do love houses. Old houses and new houses dated houses and rehabbed houses, big houses and small houses. I do love houses.
What is your specialty? Helping people move with as little stress as possible, from getting home on market and sold for the most money, to helping coordinate the lowest price purchase of their next home locally or anywhere in the country with my extensive network of agents I have worked with over the years all over this country from New England to California. Whether they are a blue-collar worker or a CEO of a top 100 firm, my business is to create an unforgettable experience to my clients that meets their wants and needs. Shack to Mansion I have sold and leased most property types you can imagine, Residential and Commercial over my 14+ years.

How did you find/decide to move to Flagler County? My wife and I had visited my parents home in Palm Coast many times and loved the area for its natural beauty and proximity to the beach. I also loved the fact that we had a small airport nearby (now it’s much bigger and awesome Flagler Executive Airport). During one of our trips down during our Christmas Vacation we fell in love with our home which we still live in and we decided to get job transfers and relocate down here. We figured why wait to retire to this beautiful place lets enjoy it while were young and raise our family and help build this growing community. We are so happy that we did we now see much of what we had envisioned has come to life and even more growth and opportunity to come.
What’s your favorite travel destination? This one is hard of course I love our area here in Palm Coast and Flagler County, which is of course why we moved here over 14 years ago.
