New Team Name | Living Collective

 

 

Well... Our team keeps growing and our names aren't getting any shorter. Alex Wong, Nina Margiottiello and Andrew Carros have been working together for some time now. On social media Alex, Nina, and Andrew Real Estate is a pretty long handle, so we've come up with a name that resonates with us. Introducing:  *taaa daaaa* Living Collective.

"Living" - Real estate is not just about the four walls, so to speak. It's about the community, where you go for coffee, where your kids go to school, what activities you enjoy, and are they close to your home? It's about a feeling. Do you feel at home? Are you comfortable in your surrounding neighbourhood? In other words, do you feel like you belong and are you living your best life? It's important, in fact, it's the foundation that holds up those four walls; it's everything.

"Collective" - Everything we do is a combined effort. Sellers and Buyers. Listing agents and Buyers agents. Realtors and clients. Like the two famous sayings, 'Rome wasn't built in a day,' and 'it takes a village.' We believe, simply put, TOGETHER we are better. It's what makes the world go around. We are Living Collectively.
