After a 26-year career in the banking industry and moving across the country, Dick Brown decided to settle down in Calgary and become a REALTOR®.  That was in 1981 when the real estate market in the city had a downward trend that lasted five years, so even though it wasn’t easy at the start, Brown didn’t give up.
