He wanted the residents to enjoy top amenities, such as state- of-the-art fitness centers with onsite trainers, movie theaters, beautifully designed pools and grand clubhouses. Each unique community evolved with his influences throughout.

You do not have to know all the answers but find someone that does. Be direct, be honest and be respectful. Real estate doesn't have to be so serious. Don't lose your sense of humor; you will need it."
