With over three decades of award-winning sales experience under his belt, Brian Patella has earned a solid reputation as being a strategic thinker, powerful marketer, and savvy negotiator. Although he values the skills of his profession, Brian credits his success primarily to the strength of his client relationships and expansive business network.

l've sat on both sides of the desk; been both a buyer and a seller. That experience brings home the importance of communication, of asking questions, and above all, of listening to your client's specific set of desires, parameters and needs. In order to do your job effectively and efficiently, you need to be familiar with every detail of your client's particular situation and/or business. By responding to a need rather than dictating a solution, your interaction/transaction is guaranteed to meet if not exceed all expectations.

An avid reader and self-professed information wonk, I love solving puzzles - Brian approaches each and every transaction as a unique, one-of-a-kind challenge Portfolios are customized to meet a client's specific circumstances; includes a comprehensive search and/or marketing plan based on their rigorous input and participation; is supported by in-depth market research.

Let's talk. I'm listening.
