Business Name: RE/MAX Gateway Business Description: Licensed as an Agent/Realtor since 2004, Pete Stamison has sold over $250 million of property to and for his clients. His passion is to help people and in Real Estate that means first and foremost to navigate what is typically their largest financial transaction. How Business Creates Value: "Whether my clients are buying or selling their home, the trick is to help them recognize exactly what they want out of the transaction and then get it with as little stress as possible." Pete works tirelessly to set himself apart from other realtors, by adopting what he calls the "Jerry McGuire Philosophy", meaning that he focuses on service and quality of his transactions not the quantity. The philosophy has worked for Pete in a big way. Over 90% of his clientele are either repeat clients or referrals and his stellar reputation has landed him as a featured realtor on 4 different HGTV Real Estate shows. "I want to make a positive impact on each client I represent. I provide service with the level of integrity that I would expect someone else to provide for me." After a few years selling Real Estate, Pete recognized a segment of his clientele was growing and in need of a special type of assistance. "Sadly, the Above 50 + market is largely ignored by brokers. They are too focused on the quick sale and not on the opportunity to truly make a difference in someone’s life." Peter sought out specialized education in this area of Real Estate and has since earned the designations of Senior Real Estate Specialist, Accredited Staging Professional, Certified Distressed Property Expert, Short-Sale foreclosure Resource, Certified Trust & Probate Agent.
