The practice, since 1983

I know this shore the way you know your own street.

I started selling on Absecon Island in 1983, and I never left. Forty-two years later that is still the whole pitch. I have watched these blocks change hands two and three times over, watched families summer here, retire here, and pass homes down. That kind of memory does not come from a database.

It is the longest continuous practice on the island, 1,737 closings and a few hundred million in shore real estate. What it really means for you is simple. You get an honest read on a house before you fall for it, a price that holds up at the table, and someone who answers his own phone.

I know which streets flood. I know which schools have changed. I know which homes have been listed three times before.

Another one sold

Most of the work still comes from people he sold to years ago.

And from the neighbours they send his way.
