Alexis McGee

We also train our investor clients to develop win-win scenarios that benefit both the homeowner in distress and the investor.

When I was a girl, all we knew was this neighborhood, ... The beaches were ?whites only.? So Turkey Creek is where we went to fish, pick blackberries, recreate.

Flip Saunders

We are at the tip of the iceberg as far as where we are and where we could be.
