Where I grew up: Houston, Texas

Reason I work at Wes Hill: I own the place

I spent some time in Dallas/Fort Worth in commercial real estate. I was back in Houston in 1980 and received a call from someone I had been associated with in Dallas. He asked if I remembered the property in Colorado he had purchased in 1972. He said he wanted to develop it and would I be interested in moving to Colorado. I told him I had only been there once but let's take a look. Nancy and I flew into Chaffee County with him, spent four days and said "lets do it." We were here permanently January 1981 and will never live anywhere else.

The development (Mesa Antero) went well. Realizing that it would sell out some day, we got an opportunity to buy the Century 21 franchise in 1985. I have worked with clients from across the world, in Saudi Arabia, Berlin, Germany, Caribbean and all over the United States. My philosophy is that property will sell itself in Chaffee County. Once you see this beautiful place, you will want to own a piece of it. We have enjoyed everyone and everything we experience in the real estate business.

Some of my best friends today are people I would never have met if I were not in the business.

My clients, my employees and my associates give me a reason to look forward to every day. I look forward to being of service to you and making a new friend.
