EXIT Realty Corp. International is proud to host the dedication of its most recent corporately sponsored home build. The ceremony is scheduled for 3pm, March 27, 2010 in Austin, TX.  Click here for a map to the dedication site.

Mirna Santana and her 15-year-old son, Brian have lived in the same, run-down apartment for 9 years. They have no control over the temperature in the apartment, there is mold from leaks in the pipes and there has been a horrible smell coming from the bathroom since the day they moved in, but it is Section 8 housing and it’s all they can afford. As a survivor of domestic violence, Mirna has found a strength and persistence that defines the amazing woman that she is. Owning a home will be the accomplishment of a life goal for Mirna. She says it will change her mental state, she will feel more complete. She looks forward to having a clean and healthy home, especially because her son suffers from asthma and the mold where they live now is so bad for his health.

“We had a tremendous turn out by EXIT Realty franchise owners and associates from all over Texas,” said Dion McCormick, Regional Owner for EXIT Realty Central Texas.  “The team worked side by side with Mirna and her son to take an empty lot and turn it into a home that all could be proud of.  I know that the team not only put their backs into the work, but also their hearts.  I am extremely proud and grateful for their efforts.”

This is just one more reason why EXIT Realty is now being referred to as one of the best in the industry.  Not only are sales representatives treated as the actual assets of the organization, EXIT reaches out to the community in an effort to provide assistance to those less fortunate.  Congratulations to Mirna Santana and her family, and all the best for a prosperous future in their new home.
