Ive always believed that success comes from two simple things: honesty and hard work. My 22-year career in real estate illustrates the truth of this philosophy. From breaking records in my first year as a sales agent to building a multi-million-dollar real estate company from the ground up, Im driven to lead with integrity and outwork everyone else.
As the founder of Lone Star Realty, I collaborate with an exceptional group of agents to showcase and sell a stunning array of waterfront and residential homes, farm and ranch properties, and rural tracts in 13 counties across East Texas, including my office on World Famous Bass Fishing Lake, Lake Fork. Since Lone Star Realtys humble beginnings as a home-based company in 2003, it has grown into a network of four offices which have collectively closed almost $700,000,000 in sales, including more than $122,000,000 I have brought in personally.
Buying or selling any property represents a major transition; I help customers feel confident as they achieve milestones and realize long-held dreams. As a trusted guide, I connect with clients and understand their priorities throughout the process, from narrowing down initial options to negotiating the final purchase. Recognized by the Greater Tyler Association of Realtors for my industry acumen, I served on GTARs committees for 11 years. Recently I was nominated to 2021 Five Star Real Estate agent. This nomination came from my past clients.
Although Ive lived and breathed real estate for over two decades, I started on a very different path. After graduating from the University of Texas in 1974 with a degree in Advertising and moving to East Texas with my wife Barbara, we launched Alexander Campbell, a womens sportswear line, in 1985. The venture proved a success, becoming a multi-million-dollar sportswear company shipping to approximately 33 states in the US as well as Mexico, Canada and Puerto Rico. We sold the company in 1997 and, at my wifes suggestion, both of us became licensed realtors in the summer of 1999. Wish I had made this decision when I was 25.
Our three children are a source of continual pride, as are our grandchildren. We love Great Danes and currently have two, a Mantle and a Harlequin. Outside of work, my wife and I are dedicated Longhorns fans. I enjoy fishing with Barbara at our lake house and playing golf whenever I get the chance with my family. My passion for my work, however, is my main interest. In these uncertain times, I hope to continue serving our customers with the same honesty and integrity that have helped my business flourish. As Mark Twain advised, Always do right. This will gratify some people and astonish the rest.
