Summary
Networked into a Company With high pay and stressful work schedules. Creating many new hires with financial opportunities to buy homes. Divorced individuals selling. Along with empty nesters with high pay retirements looking for second vacation homes or just to downsize with cash assets. While working 3rd shift at Canadian National Railway. I would be able to service every one in the shop and beyond within the company. As a well liked and known individual in the building with a fluid 75 employees I am confident in my ability to find and follow through with leads at a consistent rate making the brokerage and myself money in the process.
