Virgil Adams Real Estate
In 1953 Virgil Adams, then 28 years old, developed his first subdivision. Virgil died in 1994. He worked for various real estate agencies until 1971 when he formed his own company to assist him in the sale of the more than 25 residential developments he successfully completed over the years. Virgil Adams Real Estate, Inc. has grown to be the most successful and respected of all of the more than 60 companies comprising the Olympic Multiple Listing Service. In 1984 he sold his real estate company to his son, Dennis Adams, who acts as broker. Dennis has been an integral part of the company for more than 30 years.
PHILOSOPHY
To provide the public with the utmost professionalism, integrity and intelligent, dedicated service. The company is purposely kept at a maximum of 15 full-time only sales agents. We feel this is optimum for our market and results in fully informed, knowledgeable and hard-working sales people with a teamwork attitude. As a result, when a person hires Virgil Adams Real Estate to do a job, they are not hiring one sales representative, they are hiring an entire team to do the job.
THE BROKER
Dennis Adams is the full time broker and participates in each transaction. He does not compete with the sales force, turning over most referrals to them. Dennis grew up in the real estate business and has over 30 years of experience in the trade. Dennis is known to be a fair and honest man with the highest degree of integrity. This ethic transcends the Virgil Adams Real Estate company and you will find similar values in the agents and staff.
