Real Estate is Team Sport
Here’s the Man Behind the Scenes
This weekend marks Brett’s and my 29th wedding anniversary and 30 years together, since we got married exactly one year to the day after our first date.
For those of you who may not know, Brett plays an incredibly important operations role within The Oldham Group. He is truly the man behind the scenes who keeps everything moving.
Real estate transactions are complex. There is paperwork, disclosures, inspections, scheduling, lender coordination, title deadlines, buyers, sellers, agents, transaction coordinators, and about a thousand moving parts in between.
You may see me out front on social media, but just like life, real estate is truly a team sport. Brett makes it possible for me to focus on what I love most: caring for our clients.
Honestly, he does the same in life. He cooks, he cleans, he takes care of our Half Pint Ranch property, and he keeps the whole operation moving forward with steadiness, humor, and a whole lot of heart.
So today feels like the perfect time to say: happy anniversary to us — and a huge thank you to Brett for being such an enormous part of our business, our family, and our life.
While we’re celebrating the team, I would be remiss not to give a big shoutout to Fintan Perrins, who is absolutely killing it as an agent on our team. It has been such a joy to know him personally and professionally, and it is incredible to watch his growth.
Rylee Oldham, who plays such an important role as both an agent and the creative force behind so many of the pretty social media posts you see from The Oldham Group. She also helps coordinate many of our charitable efforts, from Operation Turkey to park days, and keeps us connected to the community we love.
Here’s to marriage, teamwork, family, real estate, community, and all the people behind the scenes who make the magic happen!
