Although 1991 was a turbulent year with the RTC and the Savings and Loan crisis, I was able to posture my relationships and helped them to take advantage of real estate that were being sold at deep discounts. Many of my peers thought I was crazy to venture out and open my own company, however, the belief and conviction that I had in my abilities and in providing a level of services that the giants could never offer, separated my company and propelled us to be a force in our market.
