Getting from There to Here

I am a son, brother, father, uncle and friend. I was born X years ago in Stamford Connecticut to a first generation family with an older sister and brother. My parents were actively involved in business together. My sister married early on and I had nieces and nephews almost before I could spell the words.

I played High School football and was actively involved in local theater during my school years. My interest in mathematics led me to Drake University eventually majoring in Statistics and Market Research.

I met my wife-to-be at Drake and eventually returned east to join the "family business". I have a daughter now older than I care to mention who is a true delight. She hopes to become the star of the family actively pursuing performing possibilities while working in a home for troubled high school students.

For many years, I have enjoyed outdoor, adventure activities. I have run four New York Marathons, rafted and canoed rapids from Maine to Idaho, biked hill races in the Berkshires, and taught Yoga. The last five years have been much more sedentary and I am slowly returning to a more active lifestyle.

Animals, especially dogs, have been an important part of my life. I have had bearded collies and the current love of my life is Shelby, a Wheaton Terrier/Australian Shepard mix. She is quite the character and is forever bringing a smile to my lips and even a tear to my eye.

I came to Martha's Vineyard 14 years ago, fell in love with the island, and never left. Please come to visit and let me show you the Island I love.

For Sale By Owner >Listing Presentations The listing presentation is the first step most sellers take when they are looking for a real estate professional to market their home. They communicate what they expect from the real estate agent who will list their home, and the agent explains their marketing strategy, including pricing recommendations, advertising, and any special programs they or their companies offer. A good listing presentation takes careful planning. A written market analysis will help you get a clear idea of local market conditions. Many real estate agents will include a marketing plan, as well as suggestions on how to make sure that your home shows well and is accessible to agents. If you are talking to several companies, resist the temptation to go with the person who quotes you the highest price for your house. Look for an agent who is well prepared, professional, and has the best ideas. The most successful transactions involve careful collaboration between the sellers and the real estate agent.
