In the world of real estate, fortune often favors the brave. One such fearless contender is Phil Herman, who plunged headfirst into the profession without a safety net and emerged as a prodigious force to be reckoned with. Inspired by Pat McAllister, his landlord/mentor who was a jack of all trades, Phil embarked on this journey despite holding a well-paid job, primarily due to an innate yearning for a professional challenge. His initiation into the field was swift and unforgiving, and he was merely handed a desk and a phone, with a curt “good luck.” The audacious Phil faced the challenge head-on. During the Ohio snow blizzard of 1978, while his colleagues huddled indoors, he pounded pavements door knocking in kneedeep snow, pitching property assessments. Despite being barely out of adolescence, Phil carried an indomitable spirit.
He believed in multiplying his value ‘a hundredfold’, a philosophy that has continued to shape his relentless approach towards real estate. He constantly pursues knowledge, saying, “What I know doesn’t concern me; it’s what I don’t know that keeps me awake at night.”
