Support You Won't Find Anywhere Else

When retired police lieutenant Ernest Kong made the move from part-time real estate agent in California to a full-time agent in Hawaii, he knew that he’d need the right support and resources to succeed in his second career. Ernie found the opportunities and tools he was looking for at Locations. Thanks to programs like retail sales, Internet leads and the global connections of a LeadingRE firm, Ernie has taken his career to new heights.
