It's important to know and trust your Lake of the Ozarks real estate agent when you are buying or selling your home.  I recently sat down and answered a few questions about myself, and I wanted to share those answers with you.  You and I may just have quite a bit in common. How long have you been in real estate?   Most of my career through college and onward has been in the bar and restaurant field.   1995 to 2002, Tami (my wife) and I decided to get our own place in a small town area just west of Overland Park in DeSoto, KS.   Full restaurant serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner.   And we also had a pub on the other side.   We called it Kill Creek Pub and Grill because the actual Kill Creek ran 1/4 mile behind us.   When I sold out to my partner's brother in law in 2002, I wasn't quite sure what to do next.   And at my uncle's urging, I got my real estate license in KS and had it reciprocate in MO since that's where his office and most o...
