My business philosophy is simple…always treat people with respect, honesty and patience, listen carefully to their needs and concerns, and give 110% to even the smallest transaction!

While growing up on the Island greatly enhances my market knowledge, I work tirelessly as a “Student of the Market” by staying well-informed on market conditions and continually previewing new listings.

I am directly involved in each transaction from start to finish.

DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS

I have also set myself apart from most realtors by:

• The countless hours I have invested to enhance my real estate knowledge – I obtained my Real Estate Broker’s License (2004) after 250+ hours of coursework. I also earned the “GRI” designation (Graduate Realtor Institute) after hundreds of hours of study.
• Consistently being one of the top-producing real estate agents in the county and being supported by a first-class team of personal assistants and support staff.
• Being supported by a powerful Think Tank atmosphere – Ferguson Dechert has been the top-producing real estate agency in Avalon/Stone Harbor every year since 1995!
• I have given back to the community by dedicating years of service as Chairman of the Board of the Realtors’ Professional Standards Committee and Grievance Committee, as well as serving as Director for the Cape May County Board of Realtors.
• These credentials are distinguishing characteristics that combine to help me provide YOU with strategic insight for a more profitable and enjoyable transaction!
• In addition, I actively participate in the Avalon Lions Club and currently sit on the Board of Directors. The Avalon Lions raises over $100,000 per year and we donate the money to local charitable organizations who help those in need in Cape May County.
