He began his real estate career as an agent in 1996 and has won numerous industry awards for his work in local real estate and charitable organizations.
Hogan says that of all the job’s characteristics, he’s most excited about the travel it will allow.
“I’d lie if I didn’t say the traveling!” he said. “I’d say travelling is about 50 percent of the job.”
