Good morning, Dorie... when I look back on my real estate career, there's no doubt that my veteran clients have always been amongst my most favorite clients. And like you, I consider it an honor to be able to serve them.

I have always felt it an honor to represent my veteran clients Nina Hollander, Broker , they deserve every perk available and I've been very disappointed in how they have not been a top priority in this past administration.
