We moved to Las Vegas because I am allergic to the trees and shrubs around the beautiful home we built in Fremont, NH. The fact that Steve is a professional poker dealer is another plus for choosing the location.
We made this life changing decision on February 22, 2012. Nearly everyone we encountered told us to “go for it.” Many people told us of their personal regrets and wished us well with even more words of encouragement.
Jay and Monika McGillicuddy are the great real estate agents who helped sell our house. They became friends in the process.
Our friends in real life and on line cheered us on all the way to our final destination in Las Vegas. Our drive across America was enhanced by the many tweets, FB and Google+ comments we shared with folks along the way. We even got to meet online people like Todd and Sharon Jordan, Miss Dazey and Mr. Bruce and Becky McCray.
Before coming to live in Las Vegas, we knew Carolyn Stephens on Twitter, Chris and John Hawkins on Twitter and a casual meeting through our son Chris Brogan, and Steve knew Julie Campbell on Twitter.
The Twitter Gods of good fortune blessed us when Steve received a tweet one day from @Vegashomepro “When you need a realtor, give me a call.”
Debbie Drummond is @Vegashomepro. She and Monika McGillicuddy use social media the same way. They promote the community. They provide great videos about the area. They seldom promote a particular property. They are good people.
I contacted Debbie Drummond. She started sending me a daily listing of properties in the area so I would get a feel of what was available. When I had questions, she and I exchanged emails. She knows her stuff.
Her partner, Michael Petit, is as dedicated to Las Vegas as she is. They are good people. Our new home in Las Vegas is different than any we have owned before. We need a pool person. We need solar shades for the windows, We need lots of stuff. That is not part of the sale, but Michael Petit is connecting us with the people who can supply us with these services. That is way above and beyond the scope of his job description. Maybe he does this for everyone or he just knows how very much we appreciate his kindness.
Look at all these links. These are just a few of the great people who helped us move to Las Vegas. We thank you all sincerely.
