As a lifelong Ramona resident with years of experience as a Realtor under a nationwide corporate brokerage, Thomas saw the value of having a local, specialized real estate office that could operate freely to meet clients needs. He became a broker and created TL & Associates by following a vision that combined the latest technology, intimate knowledge of the area, and an upscale, comfortable office to give clients top notch service and personalized expertise. When he assembled a team of agents, he chose only those with integrity, work ethic, experience, enthusiasm, and Community involvement. The team includes members of the Chamber of Commerce. Thomas is also active in local government, staying current with complex zoning changes, projects, and county improvements. Thomas says his favorite part of real estate is getting to know his clients well personally. He enjoys the ability to respond to each individuals unique needs, and matching them with the perfect property. He also takes great pride in the fact that he is available to clients long after the deal has closed, making sure to vet all services and assistance he recommends. Stop by the office on 780 Main Street, enjoy a cup of coffee while reading the rows of framed letters of recommendation written by Thomas' former clients that hang on the wall. You'll quickly understand why TL & Associates is thriving while others call this a difficult real estate market.
