Powur- Solar energy- Ted Coates, an icon in the real estate industry joins us…

Power- Solar energy, making a difference, changing peoples lives… Ted Coates, an icon in the real estate industry for years…joins us… My Broker was a guy by the name of Hyman Adler, He was one the best men who ever came into my life. When I told him what had happen his face lit up and he grabbed me and hugged me and said my boy that’s the best thing they could have done for you. I was thinking Oh really! Well I went to work; at the end of three years I got my Brokers license, and became an associate broker and within three years after that I became sales Manager. He taught me the business from A to Z including how to buy at Auctions. Time Had passed and Hyman was in his 80’s and still going strong, but he must have sensed something. He started talking about retiring and we cut a deal and I purchased the Business. He and I shared an office for about a year or so and he passed away. I purchased a real estate franchise and grew the Company from 15 agents to over 100. I have downsize it now, but in 37 years in the Business it’s the only Real Estate company I have ever been associated with. That’s me, as you can see this is not my first rodeo.
