On a Personal Note
I
often tell my friends that 99% of the time, I love the mortgage business
absolutely passionately. The other 1% of the time... well, let's face
it - it is a demanding and often stressful line of work. I can truly say
that I consider myself very blessed to have found a profession that is
both so tremendously challenging and rewarding, and I look forward to
the future that lies ahead.
The relationships I have formed with clients, business partners,
and associates are the most important part of my daily business.
I have a deep commitment to consistently living up to my word, and giving
those relationships the attention and dedication they deserve.
Outside
of the office, I strive to live up to this same commitment with my church,
friends and most of all to my wife and children.
Sometimes people will ask what I like to do with my free
time. Although "free time" is a fairly scarce asset for me,
I answer that I do love to go to the beach, and watch my two boys play
soccer and football, and visit East Carolina University where my daughter
goes to college. But mostly, I pour my time, energy and passion into my
church, career and my family.
I believe that passion is at the very heart of what it takes
to be successful in business and in life. One of my very favorite quotes
is by Thoreau:
"Go confidently
in the direction of your dreams!
Live the life you've imagined."
And this would be my wish for you as well.

I truly look forward to working with you during the years
ahead, and growing our businesses and lives together.
Very sincerely yours -
Mickey Walker
