How long have you been working in commercial real estate?
37 years
How did you first get into real estate?
I grew up on a family farm in eastern North Carolina, and actively farmed for 10 years after graduating from NC State in 1971. In 1981 I became involved in managing and developing farmland for European investors and insurance companies. My experience in management and development led to the opportunity to do consulting work in Saudi Arabia and during that time, in 1983, I obtained my broker's license.
The development and commercial side of the business was most appealing to me so, even though our company is full-service, I have focused mainly on the commercial side during my career.
