I started my real estate career as a senior in high school and had my first closed transaction before I graduated. My first sale was a single family VA listing near Tufts University for about $27,000 in 1981. I love meeting new people and creating…When I say creating I mean being involved with finding homes for people to buy and then seeing these homes being rehabbed, participating as a consultant in making recommendations during the process and seeing how this whole process evolves into a beautiful finished product. The other great part of the business is the people you meet…unfortunately, sometimes this can also be the part of the business I don’t like…you take the good with the bad. You learn and move on. Ultimately, everything can be positive.
