Thank you for taking the time to read my bio on Zillow! I wanted to include a personal note about my situation and what real estate means to me.I know firsthand how important the concept of home ownership is and how finding a place to truly call home can be life changing. When my son was just 3 years old we were renting a home that went into foreclosure and were faced with a lot of uncertainty. After living in half a dozen rentals we were tired of moving our family (dog included). We finally saved enough money to buy a home on an FHA mortgage and that's when I decided I wanted to help as many people as I could share in the feeling and pride that we felt.If you want an agent that is an advocate, friend and active member of the local community please do not hesitate to call. I really look forward to helping you out!Here's the cheesy bio:Dan's goal has always been to get a standing ovation from his clients.
