Who is Jeff Stone?

See What Jeff has to say

Jeff Stone (me) is a 34 year real estate veteran who said good bye to a cushy, successful real estate manager's job of 26 years to pursue his passions. What are those passions? I love working with overachieving and high achieving agents, I love technology, I wanted to spend half the year on my island home 32 miles out in Lake Michigan and I wanted to spend more time with my current and first wife of 27  28 years-really.

So what does that tell you about me and more importantly why could someone like me help you out? I know real estate inside out to survive 34 years. It means I've lived through really good markets and really bad ones too. To be a manager for 26 years it means I've dealt with lots of different styles. To be a successful manager, I must have helped a fair number of agents become better over the years. Note above-likes to work with achieving agents.

The technology part is what makes dealing with me a little unique. I started in the high touch era of real estate and embraced technology after I was sure it was not going away. You'll find I have a way of explaining and using it that works with many different levels of agent.

OK- What about living out in the middle of Lake Michigan? I'm not afraid to take a chance or two. I can look at things from a different perspective. I understand that if you set goals and stick to them, you can achieve your dreams.

The same wife for 27  28 years and wanting to spend more time with her-what does that mean? I'm patient, flexible, stick with things and know something about sales and getting along with people. Also, she is pretty darn special. 

Sarah Rohner, My Current Wife

Sarah, my wife now applies her artist's eye to the custom graphics on many of the websites and applies her consumer's eye as well to make sure our web sites are on target.

...By the way, when I signed up with Next Level Solutions, I was looking forward to input from Jeff, but little did I realize that his current wife, Sarah Rohner would also be involved.

Sarah has added a additional, invaluable point of view. Her organizational and creative talents and tremendous wealth of ideas have built my web-site into what I've been repeatedly told is the "best one out there."  
Jeff and Sarah are really taking me to the "Next Level" John Adamson, "Mr. Evanston"

    Why the somewhat disjointed resume?

    Real estate is filled with ups and downs. You have to be able to roll with the punches. I take my job very seriously and value achievement but..things don't always work out as you want. You have to be persistent and find new ways to get to where you want. I enjoy life and a challenge. I really liked my job. A good attitude about life goes a long way towards success in real estate. My disjointed resume shows that I understand and have experienced the ups and downs of real estate.
