Born and raised in Michigan, Chris joined the US Army and spent over five years as a Military Police Officer while raising his two sons. After his time in the Army, he returned home to work for the family business where he climbed the ladder and became General Manager within three short years. This role allowed him to hone his abilities to work collaboratively and to lead others.
Following a relocation to Massachusetts, Chris spent the next 12 years working for a Fortune 500 company as a business-to-business Sales Manager. There, he developed a passion for providing top notch customer service, a passion which is still evident to anyone who spends any time with him.
After transferring to Florida in 2016, he decided to apply his vast experience in sales, management, and customer service to a role in the real estate industry, where he has the distinct honor and privilege of assisting his clients with the largest and most significant transactions in their lives. This is a responsibility that he never takes lightly. No matter how many successful negotiations he handles, or how many happy homeowners he assists, Chris still approaches each client with the same drive and determination to exceed their expectations by going above and beyond.
Chris Thompson prides himself on his ability to understand his clients' needs and work tirelessly to achieve results on their behalf. It's no wonder, then, that Chris's clients rave about his attention to detail and his commitment to help them reach their goals.
