Gibsons Public Market Team Announces They Have Raised $178,000 in Donations Towards the Purchase of the Market Property

Friday, December 13th, 2013


Gibsons, BC (PRWEB) November 13, 2013

The Gibsons Public Market Team announced today that, as of October 31st, over $ 178,000 in donations has been raised from more than 60 families in the Gibsons and surrounding communities. Donations have ranged from $ 25,000 for a life Founder to groups of people who have each donated $ 250 towards together becoming a $ 5000 bronze Founder. These funds are to be donated to the Town of Gibsons and go towards the Town owning an equity interest in the Gibsons Public Market building i.e. the old Yacht Club building in Gibsons Landing. At a meeting on September 10th, the Gibsons Town Council agreed that a target of $ 250,000 was required to support the Towns objective of becoming the largest equity owner of the property. This outpouring of community financial support now makes that requirement likely attainablebefore mid-December when the proponents need to remove final subjects on the real estate.

I am very pleased with the response we have seen to the idea of establishing a public market in Gibsons, said Wayne Rowe, Mayor of Gibsons. While we have not yet met our target, having achieved $ 175,000 at the end of October, we have proven the viability of the concept. To have amassed that level of contribution from the large number of families behind those commitments, in just over 6 weeks, the community has clearly told us they want a Public Market in Gibsons that serves the Sunshine Coast.

The level of engagement we have seen in the community is quite astounding, says Brian Smith, Executive Director of Community Futures, one of the proponents of the market along with the Zipursky and Sonntag families in Gibsons. Not only have these donors agreed to put their hard earned money forward through donations to the Town but everyone has expressed strong support for the establishment of a community Hub at the Market. This has been an extraordinary community effort, one that is indicative of the level of support for the Market. People from up and down the coast want public spaces to gather, to celebrate and to enjoy local art, produce, food and entertainment. The Gibsons Public Market will be that space.

Community Futures and the two Gibsons families, who have each committed to invest $ 100,000 towards the purchase of the property, spawned the Gibsons Public Market idea almost a year ago. Through a series of small parlor meetings with Gibsons residents plus presentations to a number of community organizations, over 600 local residents and groups have had the opportunity to offer ideas on the Market, and in many cases became engaged by providing pro-bono professional skills, sweat equity and materials to help make the Market a reality.

We are now at a stage where people are asking how they can get more involved in the initiative. Not just in the provision of funds but also in working together with others in the community to create a place where individuals and families can meet for a diversity of activities from shopping to eating to enjoying local entertainment, says Gerry Zipursky the team member who has taken the lead in formulating the overall program. We have been encouraged and touched by the ground swell of support and donations to the Market fund raising program over these last few weeks. Along with the Town, we are very optimistic we will meet the target of $ 250,000 by the middle of December. This will then allow us to proceed with the purchase of the property and the establishment of a non-profit society that will develop and run the Gibsons Public Market. It is an exciting time for all of us.

The Gibsons Public Market Team is accepting donations from $ 250 to $ 25,000 to cover the final $ 72,000 needed to meet the $ 250,000 goal set by the Town. The levels are Life – $ 25,000; Platinum – $ 20,000; Gold – $ 15,000; Silver – $ 10,000 Bronze – $ 5,000; and Donor – $ 1000 to $ 250.

Stacey Zorzi Celebrates 15 Years With Seattle Real Estate Team Bennion & Deville Fine Homes

Tuesday, November 26th, 2013


Seattle, WA (PRWEB) November 05, 2013

This week Stacey Zorzi celebrates her 15-year anniversary with the Bennion & Deville Fine Homes team in Seattle. Since joining the team as transaction manager in 1999, Zorzi has become an integral part of the companys success as Bennion and Deville Fine Homes has evolved into a hallmark example of a progressive, luxury real estate team serving all of Seattle, the Eastside, and the greater Puget Sound region.

Prior to working for Bennion and Deville Fine Homes’ owners Bob Bennion and Bob Deville, Zorzi was a licensed real estate assistant for an agent on the Eastside. When a position became available with Bennion & Deville in 1999, she took the opportunity. I was attracted to the position because even at the time, the Bobs were known as this successful, dynamic duo that were selling all these homes. I loved being busy and I was really thrilled about being a part of a wonderful team that had such a great reputation. Zorzi was hired as a transaction manager for her strong passion for helping people solve problems and achieve their goals, as well as her demonstrated ability to understand the unique needs and demands of real estate clients.

Zorzi has assisted Bennion & Deville Fine Homes in achieving many years of success. Her dedication in focusing on the special needs of their clients has been well rewarded, earning them a highly loyal clientele. She is a true model of consistency for both the company and our clients, says Bob Bennion, president and co-owner of Bennion & Deville Fine Homes. She places incredible value on her relationships with people and thats the bar she has set on our team. She has used her depth of experience and capability to care for our clients and to really help us grow the business into what it has become today.

Fifteen years, and over 600 transactions amounting to more than $ 750,000,000 in sales, Zorzi has helped thousands of clients settle into Seattle homes.

We spend so much time with our clients at integral points in their life that we develop these relationships with them that fall under very unique circumstances. When a deal closes, as a joke I often say to people were not breaking up, were just moving on, says Zorzi. I have met so many amazing people over the years that have become friends. Working at the tail-end of getting a deal closed means I work hard to represent the Bobs and our team to make sure that clients leave with the best experience possible. Getting to celebrate milestones in their lives as they return to us for business when they get married, have children, move in other directions, etc. is truly a blessing.

In small, tight knit communities like Seattles, reputation means a lot. Bennion & Deville have long been recognized for their commitment to their clients, as well as the professionalism, reliability and integrity with which they conduct business. As organizations often take on the personality of those who work for them, Stacey is no exception to this reputation. She is an amazing person on many, many levels, says Bob Bennion. She always considers the clients needs before her own, makes her schedule accommodate theirs, and will work any hour of the day on behalf of a buyer or a seller. She approaches every day with enthusiasm and determination and that kind of attitude is infectious in this business.

Most importantly, Zorzi gets the job done. As a Seattle native, she has extensive knowledge of Seattle and the Eastside areas. She specializes in closing and securing transactions with buyers and sellers who can be assured, based on her guidance and the efforts of Bennion & Devilles full service team, that their transactions will close on schedule and smoothly.

I have felt humbled and lucky every day to have lived out a career with the Bobs. Over the years they have built up my confidence level and taught me so much about the business for which I could not be more grateful, concluded Zorzi. We work so hard to provide clients with the best experience possible and I could only be so lucky to work with such a wonderful team for many years to come.

The Sellin’ With CC Team Makes Its Television Debut

Saturday, November 9th, 2013


Jacksonville, Florida (PRWEB) November 01, 2013

Throughout the month of November, Jacksonville’s local Fox affiliate, Action News Jax, will be airing two fifteen-minute TV commercials featuring Keller Williams Jacksonville Realty’s CC Underwood. The commercials feature Underwood speaking about both the Homes for Heroes program as well as her “Guaranteed Sale” program that are geared toward potential home buyers and sellers in the Jacksonville area.

As a local affiliate of the Homes for Heroes program, Underwood hopes to serve the large military community of nearby Mayport Naval Base, as well as teachers, police officers, firefighters, and healthcare workers who may also take advantage of the program. Founded in the aftermath of the September 11th terrorist attacks, affiliates of the Minneapolis-based Homes for Heroes give back twenty-five percent of their gross commission back to the ‘Hero’ whenever they buy or sell a home through them as their realtor. To date, the program has given back over $ 3 million nationally.

In addition to this generous rebate, Underwood also offers home sellers a guarantee that the home will be sold within 60 days or it will be sold free of commission. While this program has its guidelines to ensure sellers are marketing their homes properly, it has been wildly successful.

State Farm Agent Vicki Catsimpiris Congratulates Team Member Sarah Law on Achieving Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC) Designation

Wednesday, July 24th, 2013


(PRWEB) July 18, 2013

Tallahassee insurance agent Vicki Catsimpiris and her team are celebrating the achievement of one of their own, Sarah Law, who recently received the top designations for the insurance and financial services industry. Already a Chartered Life Underwriter, or CLU, for a number of years, Sarah took it upon herself to round out her abilities as a financial advisor to her clients in the agency, by earning the coveted Chartered Financial Consultant, or ChFC, designation as well.

Mastering courses in insurance, income taxation, group benefits, and retirement, estate, and advanced financial planning over a period of several years, Sarah went all out to acquire a level of expertise that’s incredibly rare among insurance professionals, the vast majority of whom have not put in the time and effort it takes to earn the ChFC designation. Contrary to the norm for her industry, Sarah worked hard to earn this accreditation because it allows her to truly serve all of her customers’ insurance and financial services needs.

“The Charted Financial Consultant designation gives me full expertise on a wide variety of financial and insurance matters that can impact my clients’ ability to achieve their dreams. While many life insurance professionals such as myself are satisfied to be able to offer just two or three products they know how to recommend, I know that no two clients are alike, and that what can positively or negatively impact their futures in this day and age isn’t just a few standard products.” Because of the increasing complexity of the financial services industry, Sarah told us she finds it critical for her to be able to “help my clients see the whole picture of their financial lives, and make a plan for the future that’s easy and effective.”

Sarah’s “full-service” approach to insurance and financial services is an expression of the value system Agent Vicki Catsimpiris and her team of insurance professionals have brought to their agency. “It’s not about applying a one-size-fits-all approach to insurance and financial services,” Vicki told us. “Our passion is for responding to the real, changing, and unique needs of each individual client. Sarah Law’s dedication to put herself in position to help our customers make the best possible decisions for themselves, their families, and their futures is a testament to our agency’s approach to insurance, and we commend her for taking this important step forward both personally and professionally.”
