About Richard

“There are those who do their job very well... And a small few who define excellence. Richard Mishkin defined the EXTRAORDINARY in every dimension of the sale of our home”* If you need a real estate broker who is highly sophisticated, ask yourself these questions; "Who will honestly care about me? Who is going to help me expand my knowledge? As a seller, who is going to offer me the most comprehensive web presence? Who can offer me a national presence while still being community focused? Who is affiliated with the largest real estate company in the country? I can satisfactorily answer all of these questions. I am passionate about providing a level of service that stands out from the competition. Exceptional service doesn't necessarily mean working more hours; it means utilizing a comprehensive knowledge base and leveraging technology to work smarter. My experience includes over 30 years in real estate; 22 as a branch manager. I retired from management in January 2014. I am now focused on working exclusively with friends, family, business associates or people they recommended. My experience is entirely unique in the industry. As a “hands on” manager I was involved with literally thousands of transactions. My agents not only came to me for advice when encountering problems, but to simply get a second opinion on how something should be handled. People hire Brokers when they need to buy or sell.
