The company is committed to providing the best resources to its growing team of real estate professionals, including training, support, marketing assistance and professional development opportunities.  “One of the reasons I chose Davidson Realty over other real estate firms was for the extensive training opportunities, sales and marketing support they provide their Realtors,” said Davidson Realty Agent <a title="Suzy Evans" href="http://www.davidsonrealtyinc.com/our-team/davidson-realty/suzy-evans/?id=sevans@davidsonrealtyinc.com" target="_blank">Suzy Evans</a>.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s an interesting coincidence that both Christine and Andrea hail from the Boston area.  Or is it?  Maybe a childhood of Massachusetts winters makes you dream of a warmer, sunnier place like Jacksonville and St. Augustine where you can hit the <a title="World Golf Village" href="http://www.worldgolfrealestate.com/" target="_blank">World Golf Village</a> golf courses, take a bike ride and enjoy other outdoor activities year-round. </p>
<p>In addition to her customer-service oriented work experience, Christine Skaggs&#8217; life experience has also shaped her interpersonal communication and multitasking skills. Skaggs is a supportive military spouse and mom to two kids.  Her husband&#8217;s military career included stints in Honolulu, Hawaii and San Antonio, TX.  She chose St. Augustine as the home base to raise her family almost two years ago for its relaxed, safe environment and excellent St. Johns County school system.  In her new role as a Realtor, Skaggs takes pride in bringing the same level of commitment, resourcefulness and people skills that have defined her success as a military wife and mother in helping her clients sell their homes or find the perfect place to call home.<span id="more-2228"></span></p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2233" href="http://www.davidsonrealtyblog.com/2011/12/20/jacksonville-realtors-join-davidson-team/andrea-gallagher/"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-2233" title="Andrea Gallagher" src="http://www.davidsonrealtyblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Andrea-Gallagher.jpg" alt="Andrea Gallagher" width="216" height="314" /></a>Andrea Gallagher&#8217;s move to Florida came in 2005 when her and her husband of 15 years and two children traded the wintery northeast for beautiful, sunny Florida. Prior to joining the Davidson Realty team, Andrea served as Director of Credit and Sales Support for a New England based firm specializing in small business lending. She was ultimately responsible for three branches and over 100 employees. Her financial background and communication skills provide a great foundation for her new role in real estate. Andrea graduated from the University of Massachusetts with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Communications. Her passions and hobbies include spending time with her family and friends, kickboxing, helping others and rooting for her beloved Boston sports teams. </p>
<p>We&#8217;re looking to add more self-starters to our Davidson Realty team.  Give us a call, send us an email or stop by our office to learn more about a career in real estate.</p>
