Who am I? I am a native of the Tampa area and a retired law enforcement officer. After 20 years of chasing bad guys, I figured I should get out while I still had most of my health and some of my sanity! I knew I'd miss my friends in the law enforcement community, though, so I stayed on as a reserve officer.

Get the local advantage! A lifetime in the Greater Tampa area and 20 years of public service have made me uniquely qualified to be your real estate advocate: knowledge of the entire Tampa market area, dealing with people/the public, an understanding of local governments and working within them, research and investigations, and a unique and extensive network are all "tools in my tool box". Words like honesty, integrity, moral terpitude, ethics, and loyalty have been a part of my vocabulary for my entire professional life.

My Creed:

Whether the property you are buying or selling is a modest home or a mansion; Whether it´s your first home or if it´s the home where you plan to retire; I will use all of the latest technology to build a marketing strategy that fits you to get you the results that you want and deserve. You can count on me to work for you; honestly, fairly and frankly!

P.A.C.E.: These four tenets are some of the most important ingredients in making our relationship successul.

Promptness: Doing what I said I'd when I said I'd do it! Most tasks will be done within 24 hours. Action: More than just sticking a sign in your yard or searching the multiple listing service, action means rolling up my sleeves and getting the job done! Communication: Keeping you updated every step of the way...answering my phone...returning phone calls promptly. Listening will be the most important thing I can do in our communication. Empathy: Buying and/or selling your home is very stressful. I don't want you to think of me as your agent, but as your advocate and friend. I will be there to walk and talk you through each step of the process. Wayne Gabriel, GRI  813-781-9529
