Agent affiliates with Re/Max Central
Re/Max Central announces real estate professional Sherrie Stafford is now affiliated with its Lansdale office located at 1110 N. Broad St., Lansdale.
Stafford has been a resident of Montgomery County for more than 40 years and currently lives in North Wales with her husband, Scott, with whom she has been married for 20 years. Together, they have two children, Grace and Alexander. Stafford enjoys time spent with family, photography, crossword puzzles, yoga, mentoring, riding her Harley, skiing, gardening and travel.
Stafford is a graduate of Temple with a bachelor’s degree in accounting.
Prior to becoming a real estate professional, Stafford worked as a bookkeeper for lawyers, jewelry wholesalers, wine and spirits distributors and an airline, in addition to working nights and weekends expanding the commercial construction company she and her husband began in 2008.
She is a member of the Montgomery County Association of Realtors, PA Association of Realtors and the National Association of Realtors.
Before joining Re/Max 440, Stafford was affiliated with Berkshire Hathaway Fox & Roach.
When asked why she joined Re/Max 440, Stafford said, “I joined Re/Max Central due to their reputation in the industry. There’s power in Re/Max being worldwide; plus, the training is better than any other place I’ve worked — it’s not even comparable.
“The great thing about real estate is that you have the opportunity to be whoever you want to be. The ReMax team helps you find what you’re good at and supports you in your efforts, everyone can plan their own business and work hard at developing it, but the standard of what’s set up already, of what happens automatically, is high. The additional fact that local Re/ Max offices use hot air balloons for educational programs, nonprofit organization fundraisers and donate to the Children’s Miracle Network Hospital each year should not go unnoticed.”
“We are very pleased to have Sherrie join our Re/ Max team of real estate specialists,” President and CEO of Re/Max 440 Thomas Skiffington said. “We look forward to her continued success in the real estate business. Bucks and Montgomery County buyers and sellers can expect to receive 100 percent commitment to service and integrity from Sherrie.”
