About Terry

The REALTOR® in the Arena Inspired by Theodore Roosevelt It is not the critic who counts — not the one who questions the pricing strategy, or critiques the marketing plan from the sidelines, or comments on how the negotiation could have been handled. The credit belongs to the REALTOR® in the arena — the professional who shows up every day, facing a volatile market, rising expectations, and emotional transactions. The one whose phone rings long past business hours, who juggles contracts, closings, and countless “just one more” showings. Who strives valiantly — who may fall short when a deal unravels at the last minute, who absorbs disappointment with grace, and still shows up — polished, prepared, and positive. The REALTOR® who keeps going, who advocates fiercely for their clients, who knows the pressure of putting dreams into contracts, and the responsibility of guiding people through one of the most significant decisions of their lives. At their best, they know the triumph of handing over the keys and changing a life. At their worst, if they fail, they fail while daring greatly — invested, committed, and all in. So their place will never be with those who stand safely on the sidelines — the ones who neither risk nor sacrifice — but with those who lead from the front, who elevate the standard, and who define what it truly means to be a REALTOR®.
