Thomas Martin

After graduation from Syracuse University, Tom worked in advertising, publishing and marketing on Madison Ave in NYC. Learning direct mail, advertising, copy writing, publishing, printing and client management for 5 years.During the time in California, Tom developed a hobby of fixing and flipping homes. The hobby turned into a life calling when an opportunity arose to become part of a home building and development company in Wisconsin. That change led to 12 years of custom home building where the company that Tom worked for as general manager and eventually owned built over 200 homes in Ozaukee and Washington counties. In addition to building and development, Tom owned a real estate brokerage to complement the home building company. The methods developed here to sell spec homes and some clients homes led to the next phase in his career when the market crashed in 2007/2008. When the market crashed in 2007/08, no one was building any new homes. But people still had to move due to a variety of life changes. That meant homes still had to be bought and sold. Moving his brokerage firm to Shorewest, Tom went from 1st year agent in 2008 to the Shorewest Presidents Club (#31 out of 895 agents) by the end of 2009! Staying at those levels during the worst real estate market since the depression was no mean feat. In fact, by 1st Qtr 2014, Tom was the #1 agent at all of Shorewest.
