“I’ve been in the real estate brokerage business for thirty-four years. Over time, I’ve realized something very dear to my heart. Whether I help with the buying or selling of a property, it is, and always has been people who interest me the most - their history, their futures. It’s what they’re trying to get out of life, or what they want to put back into it.”
