About Bailey Team
I became a Realtor after retiring from Federal Aviation Administration as an Air Traffic Controller. After having a few businesses I decided to try Real Estate and found I loved it. I love people, I love the beautiful Alabama Gulf Coast, I love making people happy by finding them the exact right property for them. I love selling property from $49,000 to $4,000,000+, you are treated the same with me no matter the price. I am an Associate Broker with Century21 Meyer Real Estate. You can reach me at any time, I will be available for you. I was on HGTV's Beachfront Bargain Hunt and got many, many great reviews.
