Hello all!

Firstly, I have to say that I truly enjoy listening to BiggerPockets regularly.  

I recently earned my Real Estate license, signed on with Trade Winds Realty, and joined the Pinellas Realtor® Organization (PRO).

My focus area is the beaches (and near-beach areas) of St. Petersburg, FL, primarily residential (and of course, investment) properties.

I grew up here, so I know the area extremely well, from the pockets of bargain-priced but near-beach neighborhoods to the multi-million dollar estates. If you have ever seen the movie Cocoon or Summer Rental (both 1985) or The Punisher (2004), those were filmed in my area.

If you want to strike up a conversation with me, ask about the house the pool scenes in Cocoon were filmed at.

I'm also a licensed Community Association Manager, and had a portfolio of properties covering much of Central Florida. I know Condos and HOAs very well, and some neighborhoods well outside of my home area.

I'm happy to be here, and glad to help any BiggerPockets members if I can, and I look forward to learning from you as well.
