About
Been in real estate business over 35 years.
I’m only CRS in this County – Certified Residential Specialist, you have to have experience in selling real estate plus additional education requirements.
I sell all types of property: Residential, Farms, Investment, and Industrial with majority of my business being in Residential and Investment. My expertise appears in the number of clients who have bought houses from me, come back to sell their house and buy others. Or Investors who continue to ask me for assistance in buying their rental properties.
My favorite aspect to selling Real Estate is the people that you meet each day and can help them make that most important decision of buying a house. It is such a great thrill to see the smiles on their faces when they purchase that new home!
My advice to Investors has been when they find property they like, to set a price in their mind as to what they want to pay for it and stick with it. There will be another property come around the next day that might suit them better! If you’re an Investor, you only need to buy one property a year to reach your goal! This advice is harder for the typical Home Buyer as they get excited about this home being theirs to raise their family and they want it so bad! But you need to stay within the price you’ve set that you can afford and don’t go higher.
My wife, Silvia, and I have 4 children, 8 grandchildren, and 1 great-granddaughter living in Hopkinsville. I follow my grandchildren in their sport endeavors.
