Native Son
Phil’s family is the focal point in his world—he’s a loving husband and a devoted father. His wife Kathy and his son Taylor are a never-ending source of inspiration and happiness. Whether spending a day in the park, or taking Taylor to soccer practice, Phil cherishes those special moments spent with family.

Children Bring a New Perspective on Life
“Having a child rejuvenates you,” Phil says. “Things take on a fresh new perspective. It’s a joy to see the world through Taylor’s eyes. Even the simplest things I used to take for granted now become exciting again because I can experience them with Taylor.”

The Dreams and Aspirations of a Great Place, A Great People
A lifelong resident of the Miami Valley, Phil wouldn’t dream of raising his family anywhere else. He believes there’s a quality of life here that begins with the ideals of its great people. “Our values, dreams and aspirations just seem to be the same wholesome, true and solid goals that our parents and grandparents strived for,” Phil explains.

For Miami Valley residents one of the top goals seems to be the American Dream of home ownership. And that’s an area where Phil has become quite an authority—his other passion is his career as a real estate professional. In fact, this very passion has driven him to the top of his field. His nationally renowned performance is the direct result of his extensive knowledge and expertise backed by an unwavering commitment to go the distance for each client.

From Bagging Groceries to Wrestling Champ
But Phil will be the first to tell you that passion alone won’t guarantee success. Phil is a true believer in—and a perfect example of—the Midwestern hard work ethic. Coming from a family of six, things weren’t handed to Phil, he had to struggle for most accomplishments. As a teen, Phil had a small dream to be the top wrestler in the area. He went to work after school, bagged groceries and saved his money for tuition to the best wrestling clinic in the Midwest. His hard work and intense training paid off that year. Phil won 32 consecutive matches.

Meet Phil, Dayton's Favorite Homeseller
The road to becoming Dayton’s top homeseller was not an easy one for Phil, either. From day one, Phil immersed himself with his typical zeal, taking every real estate class he could find, reading every book on the subject he could get his hands on, and spending hours studying with some of the top agents in the country.

Mastering His Craft: Day-To-Day Victories
But true to form, Phil’s hard work eventually paid off. He started doing innovative personal marketing and set up systems to ensure outstanding service. Soon Phil was breaking records with his phenomenal performance. Phil is flattered by the requests he receives from companies and agents to share some of the secrets to his success.

But to Phil, the status and accolades he’s earned in his profession aren’t as rewarding as the satisfying feeling he gets when he helps Miami Valley families achieve their dreams. “I work hard to master my craft,” Phil states, “Because so much is at stake when my clients have to sell an important part of their world. I want each of my clients to be confident of two things: they are working with the best and that I will do everything within my power to help them become successful.”
