I know the contest for Ringing and Singing is officially over, but I made the call to our friend and associate Rainer, Gary Waters this pass Sunday afternoon while I was trying to catch folks at home to get that last entry for Debbie’s contest. Since Gary returned my call, I was thrilled to go ahead and visit with him that day. He spared me some time while he was getting ready to go to his 2 year old granddaughter’s birthday party.
Gary Waters is the Broker and Owner of Waters Realty of Brevard, LLC in Melbourne, Florida. We had a lot in common as military veterans, since Gary retired from the US Navy in 1996 after serving twenty years for his country. After some 25 plus years in the health care administration, he made the career change to real estate in 2003. He became a real estate broker and opened his own company in 2014.
We talked about how nice the weather was in Florida compared to all the snow and storms other Rainers were having in the East. Temperatures did drop down to the mid-30’s this winter, but it’s normally above 65 in their winters. Folks were so used to temperatures in the 60’s that many would complain whenever it dropped below 65.
Like most markets around the country, Gary said that they had experienced a Seller’s Market last year, and that business was great in his area. He was planning on improving his systems, and concentrate on recruiting and adding more agents to his brokerage in 2016.
As far as Active Rain for 2016, he naturally wants to blog more and move up the leaderboard in his area. He plans to put out more market and community reports and do more Localism posts. If you don’t know Gary Waters, and need a contact in the Brevard County in Florida, I recommend you follow his blog, and give him a call. I am sure he’d love to chat with other Rainers.
