Every now and again, things happen to us on the road of life, an unexpected birth, an equally unexpected death. A job promotion or the loss of a job – we all face the dreaded DETOUR….

We come to a point where we get to choose where we want to be NOW, since where we thought we were headed changed.
Seven Gables was born out of a desire to deliver a different kind of real estate brokerage to the community. We hired only experienced professionals – professionals who throughout the years, would continue to enhance their understanding of the market, the trends, and the vehicles by which to market and advertise your property. We were and still are quite proud of the reputation that we have built over the years, one building block at a time. Integrity. Honesty. Commitment. To us these not mere words that look good on a page. They define use and serve as the bar by which we measure every decision.

Times have changed. This is neither good nor bad, it just is. Economically, we have all faced our share of challenges. We have hit this:

How did we adjust? Easy. We took stock in what was important to us. Our relationships with our clients. Our agents. And each other as a company. We acknowledge that the market has shifted and have never taken our eye off of what that shift is and where it’s going. We have redirected how we focus our energy and resources so that everyone – our Clients and the agent who work for us benefit.

Despite the market downturn, we have invested in our future. We hired experts in their fields to evaluate our company, our technology and our options and guide us with regards to what we can do to be better at everything.

Will the market continue to shift, adjust and readjust? Of course. This is a certainty. It always has and it will continue to do so. Will we be in the forefront, learning how to shift with the market while holding to our core values and principles? Definitely! Where will this ultimately lead? It’s hard to say.
In life there are few things you can control or guarantee. But the fulfillment of promises made should be one of those things that you strive to do under every circumstance. We don’t know what the future will bring, but our promise to be a part of it is one we plan on keeping.
