MAGGIE BOLADO In a time where markets don't care about anything but profits, I'd like to welcome you to a brand new real estate approach - one that transcends buying and selling, one that connects with you.

Homebuyers are on the sidelines, consumer confidence is shaken and your average real estate agent can only sympathize - I want to gravitate you into an organization that will help you grow as a consumer. To do that, I've taken the first step into re-inventing myself as a professional as I work towards distinct professional endorsements within this industry - as an added service for you.

Choices are life-altering decisions, both personally and financially. That sought-after quality service is now available to you in a Realtor as an inclusive service. The commitment of an accredited Buyer Representative is also available to you - and it's all part of an introductory package at Troy Giles Realty.

WILL GREENWOOD was born in Houston, Texas in 1988. He grew up in Houston for eight years during which his family would take annual summer vacations down to South Padre. Because they loved spending their time on the Island so much, Will and his family made SPI their permanent residence in 1995, trading Houston's freeways and fast paced city life for South Padres beaches and serenity. He grew up and was a resident on the Island until 1998 before his family moved to Palm Beach, Florida for work related reasons. Will has been venturing into the entrepreneurial realm since childhood. He still remembers his first business, selling lemonade in front of his house on Gulf Blvd to Valley locals and tourists. In 2006 hewas accepted into Florida State University, where he attended college for the next four years. During his tenure at FSU, wanting a sound education in small business and financial planning, Will double majored in Entrepreneurship and Finance. He also gained a solid background and understanding of the Hospitality industry by attending a summer long Study Abroad program in Switzerland. While there he toured a variety of Hotel and Service operations across Europe, learning from their management what it takes to operate and run these organizations. Wanting to gain more experience in the Sales industry, Will spent the summer of 2010 on the Island working at Coastal Lifestyles, a property rental agency, and at the Palms Resort and Café on the beach. While working in Padre, he saw enormous potential in the local economy and especially the real estate market. "South Padre is a one of a kind destination to live, work, and invest. This is one of the last undeveloped coastlines in the nation, consisting of miles of gorgeous beachfront and has tremendous growth potential" Immediately after graduation Will decided he wanted to move back to the one place he always considered home, South Padre. He recently began working at Troy Giles Realty and Management as a sales agent and working in their property management division with a concentration on the Interior management of properties
