My Mother was a school teacher and my Father was a fireman for the City of Tampa when they first opened the doors. Needless to say, holding full time jobs and trying to start a business at the same time was very demanding. My parents began purchasing , rehabbing and selling property in the late 1970’s in the Gulf Beach Area. My Sister and I helped them with the little things we could do, since we were still in grade school, like sweeping, cleaning and checking guests in during the winter season (Gulf Bay also serviced seasonal rentals). No one sat idle for too long. Growing Up In the Family Business My father was the broker for all those years 1978-1997 and built up the business. My parents strongly suggested that as soon as I was old enough, I take the Real Estate exam and I did. Between the years of 1984 to 1997 I worked hard along side my parents and our business prospered as we developed meaningful, lasting relationships with our clients. My father would often joke that either my Mother or I should get a Brokers License in case something happened to him. In In 1998 I received my Brokers License and decided to continue to work the business, without hesitation, in order to honor the business that my parents had worked so hard to build and which I had a great passion for. er the years I have assisted hundreds of buyers and sellers achieve their Real Estate Dreams, including the folks that my family assisted years ago when I was a child. Their lifestyles and real estate needs have changed and I work closely with them to ensure their desires are handled with as much care as they were when my Mother and Father were running the business. It is a wonderful feeling when they come back to me for assistance. I have even had the pleasure of helping their children with their real estate needs and for all this I am grateful and blessed. I have built a relationship of trust with these clients and they regularly refer me to family and friends. One of the most rewarding part of these long lasting relationships is that someone always has a good story about my Mother and Father to share with me. Yes, this business is very competitive, and so are we. But it is more importantly about building relationships and providing honest and excellent service before, during and after the sale. That is the foundation we have built this 38 year business on and it continues today. I realize that buying or selling can be a stressful undertaking.
