Brick House

My start in the real estate business,as I think back, is still a reflection of my personality disorder to this day. At a ginger age of 18 I made a life changing decision to get married to my high school sweetheart. I clearly remember the salesperson to this day and I believe Dennis is still somewhere in the business. My new experience with a search for a house was getting frustrating to me. The agent showed us many homes and none on blocks I wanted. Hey I was from the neighborhood, hung on a corner and displayed my colors proudly. I just can't buy on someone else's turf. Geez all we did was fight one another so I had to be careful. The dude just didn't get it. Sooo I called off the search and decided I better learn what's up and enrolled in Community College. Hell, they wanted me to go to college anyway and I always had my hustle on so whats the big deal.
That's when it all started, my teacher was awesome and encouraged me to further my real estate education, what a great recruiter he was, as I think back. I worked almost 20 years for Charlie and still admire him.
Again the fight was on. I learned, I sold, I quit my 3 jobs and bought my own home and saved the commission. The Real Estate Warrior emerged. Thanks Dennis, never would have thought of it without you
