My past experience is your advantage. I have spent many years in Design Engineering and a General Contractor working with many diversed groups of individuals. Having to negotiate compromises on many sides of the field to satisfy all the individuals have given me deep insights on being able to negotiate a deal from many different angles. Being able to perform at this level will give you the advantage that few agents can only achieve even with many years of experience in the field. This coupled with my experience as a Realtor will give my clients the advantage of a professional looking out for their interest.
