"A quote that has stayed with me since my days as an account executive in healthcare is, ‘think in leaps, iterate in steps.’ I prioritize listening to my clients and understanding what they want out of a transaction, whether listing or buying, then work to ensure that each step of the process aligns with those initial considerations." ~ Mike Durbin
