I started my career as a travel agent. From working
very very hard to get the clients the best prices on air and cruises
and giving them the best service I could, I opened my own agency
8 years later called Byrd House Travel & Cruises Inc. I had
a very large clientel with 6 inside agents and 22 outside agents.
I enjoyed pleasing my clients and they were like family after 28
years of serving them. It was very sad when I made the choice, back
in 1995, to sell. I am so grateful that so many still stay close
to me and now refer me to Real Estate. If your reading this, after
I send you the link.. I will always love you and thank you for a
great past. You all were terrific.
I decide to sell the agency after the airlines cut out all our
commissions. I just couldnt bring myself to charge a service fee.
I have great faith in God and with all the massive praying for guidance
He lead me to Real Estate. I thought it would be hard being 50 years
old, back then and changing careers. But with all the working hard
and time I spent getting the best prices on travel, the transition
was unbelievable easy. I did it for over 28 years. It was a natural
thing for me, I haven't changed, I work the same... But, I get the
best prices on homes.
I am very grateful to God and the clients he now sends me in Real
Estate.
