about Phil . . ._

My family and I have lived in the Atlanta area for over 35 years. My first
home was in Tucker, which back then was considered the farmland-
frontier for most of Atlanta.  My second home was in North Fulton which
was surrounded by horse and cattle farms, in an area now known as
Johns Creek.   Finally, in 2001, I built a custom home on Lake Lanier
and can’t imagine ever leaving.  Around that same time, I began my first
steps into the Real Estate industry and never looked back since.

I have a degree from Ohio University, Athens Ohio. (very similar place to
Athens GA). My background is primarily in sales/marketing and I spent
many years in the advertising industry.  I'm also experienced in
construction and remodeling from summer jobs during college.  I look
back and everything seems to have led me into the direction of the Real
Estate industry and I draw on all those prior experiences every day.  

Most important, I was taught the value of long hours, honest, hard work
and achieving successful results. I always give clients more than they
expect and that’s not just sales talk.  My goal is simply to work harder
and do more for my clients than any other agent.

Feel free to click the Buying/Selling tab to get more information on
the things I do differently and why I’m a better choice when you are
seeking the assistance of an experienced Real Estate Professional.

I'm pleased to be working with a great  team at Coldwell Banker, one of
the most trusted and well known national brands in the Real Estate
industry.  The Company was founded on August 27, 1906 on the heels
of the devastating 1906 fire and earthquake that leveled San Francisco.
A young real estate agent, Colbert Coldwell saw the need for honest,
knowledgeable real estate services to help the city rebuild. As the
company grew, he hired Arthur Banker as a member of his sales staff.
The two businessmen eventually formed a partnership, and in 1914 the
real estate company known as Coldwell Banker was born.

The Coldwell Banker® brand has a global reach, with offices in 49
countries and territories. There are more than 600 Coldwell Banker
offices outside of the United States.  I'm proud to say that our local office
is consistently number one in our franchise.

Please feel free to
contact me anytime.  I look forward to the opportunity
to show you what Coldwell Banker has to offer.  If you're in the area, we
hope that you might stop in to say hello sometime.  
 . . . Be sure and ask for Phil.
If you are considering SELLING your home
Give me a call to set up an appointment for a free, no obligation consultation on marketing
your property.  I can provide you with information on current and recently sold homes in your
area, as well as tips on preparing your home for maximum value and a quick sale.
You will find that I don’t just list your home on the FMLS and hang a for sale yard sign. I draw
up with a specific marketing strategy, a scheduled plan of action; I keep you informed on all
activity, client feedback and overall, work very hard to make sure you get the desired result.
Be sure to browse through my
"Selling Info" page for more on what Coldwell Banker has to
offer and why we're a better choice when listing your home.

If you or a friend is considering BUYING a new home
Representing you as a buyer’s agent, I can help you find a home that best suits your needs
and will negotiate and advise for the best possible price and terms.  
A buyer's agent works
at
no cost to the buyer. A specific commission is negotiated in advance and paid by the
seller.  That same commission amount is most always paid regardless if a buyer's agent is
representing you or not. The difference is that the seller's agent is bound by the listing
agreement to work
on behalf of the seller's best interests. I'll represent your best interest.  
Be sure and click the "
Buying" tab for more info.

If I can assist you in any way, please don’t hesitate to call or drop me an email.  
I look forward to hearing from you and hope to
have the opportunity to work with you in the future.
