In their own words

I got into Real Estate following huge tragedy. My intention was to use my license for referral status. 3 months after becoming licenses, I lost all 3 of my dogs in one night after contact with blue green algae poisoning. It gutted me. One of those three dogs, Harpo, was a therapy dog and we volunteered 4-5 days per week with senior citizens and children with developmental disabilities. I took a 7 week mindset course that October, 3 months after losing my dogs, and was able to write 14 contracts in those 7 weeks and from there it has grown leaps and bounds. I named my business after Harpo, and committed to rescuing a dog in a shelter through sponsorship, with every home sold, in Harpo’s memory.
