The fire destroyed everything!

True story! I sat down today with a man named Waldy, and his story shook me. Just two months after moving into his new home, a lithium battery from his Polaris Slingshot exploded in the garage at 4 a.m. The fire destroyed everything—his documents, belongings, even his dog—and his wife nearly lost her life. What stood out to me was how our property management team, led by Jay and Saloni, stepped in and had Waldy and his family placed in a new home in the same neighborhood within just days. It reminded me that real estate isn’t only about houses—it’s about people, community, and stepping up when it matters most. Have you ever experienced anything like this, or dealt with lithium battery issues in a property?
