ROGERS, AR., - Even as a little girl, Virginia Blackford enjoyed looking at houses. She remembers visiting construction sites to check out how the homes were being built and to study their architecture - a childhood pastime that led her into a successful career as a real estate agent.

 

For two years, Virginia has been a licensed Realtor in Arkansas enjoying helping people with all their real estate needs. She started out as a new agent with Charles Burt Realty and recently transferred her license to Crye-Leike, REALTORS.

 

"It is exciting to be part of a company whom so many people recognize and who is the leading real estate company in the region, and one of the top companies in the nation," said Crye-Leike Agent Virginia Blackford. "In the summer of 2007, I saw a sign advertising classes to become a Realtor and I thought why not?

BRENTWOOD ? With their children grown and their golden years upon them, Sue Harris and her husband are ready to sell their large Brentmeade house with its big yard and live in something smaller.

 

But the housing slump and the competition for buyers in their price range have made it very hard.

 

After trying to sell their 14-room home for $959,000 last year, they gave up in December and decided to bide their time.

 

"It was just not worth it, trying to keep everything clean all the time for showings and waiting for a phone call that wouldn't come," Harris said.

 

In the meantime, the 61-year-old must continue to confront the maintenance and cleaning demands of a one-acre yard and 6,280 square feet of house.

CONWAY, AR., - Conway Realtor Gelinda Mudgett takes her real estate business very seriously.  When the time came to consider taking her ?decade long career' of buying and selling in a new direction - she went straight to the top.

 

"When I made the decision to switch companies after Henry Hawk's retirement, I checked-out several companies," said Gelinda.  "One in the running was Crye-Leike Realtor's. After speaking directly with Cofounder & CEO Harold Crye I felt his company had the most to offer."

 

Gelinda says she likes the Crye-Leike framework and how that will enhance her business.  The company's integrity was also a big reason why she decided to join up. Prior to joining Crye-Leike Gelinda served as an Executive Broker with Henry Hawk Real Estate.

 

"I have been very busy since I arrived at Crye-Leike Realtor's in Conway," said Gelinda.  "I love learning about all the new opportunities here and m...
