I arrived in Southwest Florida in April 2000 from the Northeast. I quickly realized that an opportunity existed in this area for Real Estate Professionals with an old fashioned work ethic! I was working with an investor trying to buy waterfront homes in Cape Coral and Ft. Myers. Within a short period of time it became apparent to me that agents in this area were all on vacation! They didn't return phone calls and they didn't work nights or weekends! Having been licensed up north, I immediately applied for real estate school and scheduled the state exam and within 2 months I had obtained my brokers license. It was just about the time our real estate boom started and I was soon closing 10-15 transactions a month! Within 2 years,  with my wife Patti, we opened the first Sellstate Franchise in Cape Coral, Sellstate Advantage.

I have made it a prerequisite for all agents that work with us, that customer service and dedication to your business be paramount. The success that we have experienced since 2000 is directly tied to the commitment we have made to training our agents and customer satisfaction! We only hire the best of the best and our mission statement is and has always been,"To serve, lead and inspire people who want to succeed in the real estate business!" Through our commitment to our clients that we will insure their 100% satisfaction, we have developed our company slogan," It doesn't cost anymore to hire the best!"
