I joined Realty Executives in 2011 when my Broker of 16 years retired and chose to merge with Jim Berns, and I am grateful that he did. Jim's total commitment to help his agents both new and experienced, achieve their full potential shows in everything he does. Jim is constantly researching the latest tools and technology and makes sure we are provided the best training in the industry. His professionalism, honesty and genuine enthusiam set him apart. I feel privileged to be part of his team.

The TRAINING that I have received from Jim has been priceless. I came into the industry knowing absolutely nothing about Real Estate, but with Jim's help I feel confident on where my career is heading. I have friends who have been agents for over a year and still feel unsure of what they are doing, they tell me that I am lucky to be receiving this type of detailed training. So, Thank You Jim.
