For those of you who know me well, you know that I am very close with my family. I feel so privileged, because there are so few children this day and age that can share that feeling with me.
Well, as many of you may know, I come from a background of entrepreneurs. My family has owned and operated restaurants since 1923. You would think I would weight 300 lbs, right! Well, growing up I’ve always looked up to my father for his work ethic. He always provided for my family the entire time throughout my childhood. He’s had lot of different businesses and has always been successful.
A couple years ago he made a gamble to come to Fort Myers and start a food chain called Lion’s Choice. It’s the most amazing food EVER! Well, the circumstances in Fort Myers certainly changed some, and needless to say he was forced to close down both the restaurants he had opened. In a situation where many people would just want to give up, my dad had been studying the real estate market down here for a couple of years. He actually took the closing of the restaurants as an opportunity to follow his passion in real estate. I think we can all learn from his courage to continue on, even though the temptation to quit was staring at him in the face.
Well with his studying of the local Fort Myers Real Estate Market, he has positioned himself to do quite well and I’m so incredibly proud. His website can be found at this link Fort Myers FL Homes. If you are considering purchasing (or selling) a home in SWFL, the opportunity is ridiculous right now! I actually saw a home on his site that was a 4 bed 2.5 bath home built in 2006 that was almost 2,400 sq.ft. under air for $94,000. No kidding. It even had granite countertops. Like I said, there are amazing deals out there right now.
