About

I am a third generation Realtor, I began my career working for a competing company to the one that once employed my father. I initially volunteered for over year as an assistant and buyers agent with a local top producer in 1999. I believe whole heartedly in the mentoring process, I did not want to just learn how to put together some sales I wanted to learn how to be a great Realtor. My experiences in real estate under this agent ranged from: selling homes, delivering flyers and digging in sign posts. In addition to the time invested in working in real estate, I worked evenings driving a forklift for a year and a half for financial support. This was soon unnecessary as my sales began to rival my mentors; we then became partners and formed Leigh & Johnson Real Estate Marketing Group. As partners our sales have exceeded over $43,000,000 in a year, and average over 30 million per year. The success of our partnership motivated us to purchase a Windermere franchise. I was now an owner of a franchise of the same company that employed my father. In 2006 Terry Leigh and I opened Windermere Metropolitan on Commerce, the first national franchise to locate in downtown Tacoma, a revitalized community cultured on high tech and the arts. We enjoy a trolley stop at the front door of our office that adds a unique urban attraction to our location. Our location has not only been attractive to our clientele given the increase in urban housing developments but it has been appealing to perspective Realtors as well.
