PROFILE: CHRISTINE BEARDEN

Sales Associate : "When buying my own home in Summit I turned to Burgdorff ERA because of its market share and high level of professionalism. In choosing real estate as my new career, I knew I wanted to be associated with a company that shared my own philosophy and level of ethics, and once again chose Burgdorff." Business Philosophy When I learned about the Burgdorff ERA “Golden Rule” philosophy, I knew this was the company for me. I treat people as I would like to be treated: with honesty, integrity, and compassion. The experiences I have gained from my own relocations provide valuable resources in helping to serve both buyer and seller.
