Other awards consist of Platinum, Chairman, Hall of Fame and The Above the Crowd award.

Investment Real Estate >Investment Property
Individuals who invest in real estate are doing very well these days. The potential for income, appreciation and possible tax savings makes investment property especially attractive.
It is important for you to get professional advice before you decide to buy investment property. You may want to start with a personal financial advisor who can help you set your investment goals. Your real estate agent can help you select a competitively-priced property that meets these goals, and can answer questions about why a particular property would be a solid investment. What features would make it easy to rent? What kind of maintenance expenses are you likely to incur? What will your cash flow be, and how will the tax savings affect your bottom line? While agents cannot predict how much a particular property will appreciate, they can give you the history of price trends in the market area.
