I can definitely relate… thank you for sharing this. So many little things that add up. It still stings in my memory when a franchise owner said he didn’t see “someone like me” being a broker in a top area of town where I desired to expand his franchise. I asked why and he couldn’t give a reason. His loss as I went on to grow a firm in that very area.

I reached out to Lee Davenport who was the author [of There Goes the Neighborhood] that Lennox had forwarded to all of us to read. She’s an incredible person.
