ALLYSON SULLIVAN<br />
Passion And Excellence<br />
In Delray Real Estate<br />

There’s only one thing that<br />
Allyson Sullivan loves more<br />
than Delray Beach – and that’s<br />
selling real estate. The Boston<br />
native came to Delray Beach and<br />
declared it “Love at first sight.”<br />
“It was my love for Delray Beach - and the vibe of South Florida<br />
- that caused me to come here and call Delray Beach my home.<br />
I fell in love with the unique cultural flare that this charming<br />
beach community offers - the architecture, the palm trees, the pristine<br />
beaches, and especially the tropical weather,” said Sullivan, a top selling<br />
realtor for Lang Realty in East Delray Beach.<br />

Sullivan is also bullish about buying a home or condo instead of renting.<br />
She advises young people to think of home ownership as a great<br />
investment for your future with great tax benefits. “It’s a great idea to<br />
pay off some of your mortgage in advance because a lot of it is interest<br />
the first 10 to 15 years. That way you build more equity and paying off<br />
your mortgage early is a fabulous step toward financial freedom.”<br />
Another word to the wise when it comes to creating wealth – according<br />
to Sullivan – is to buy investment property. She advises finding<br />
property that has a positive cash flow (because cash flow is a no<br />
brainer she said). Sullivan suggests finding a good real estate agent<br />
you can trust to advise you about what to invest in and where to invest.<br />
“There are some great opportunities to buy in our area. You can’t count<br />
on social security to survive when you retire.”<br />
Retiring is far from Sullivan’s mind right now. She is steeped in her<br />
real estate career, and helping others reach their financial and domestic<br />
dreams. “I believe the recipe for a success story includes a strong and consistent<br />
track record of integrity, honesty, reliability and a lot of hard work.<br />
According to clients Sullivan is doing just that.<br />
“Allyson is one of the nicest, hardest working, professional, and<br />
knowledgeable realtors I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. I’m<br />
glad I met Allyson, who has brought a wealth of knowledge to me about<br />
all real estate matters. If you’re reading about her now, stop where you<br />
are because you already made the right decision. Allyson is the right<br />
choice to handle, list or purchase real estate for you,” said Alex.<br />
Sullivan has earned all the accolades she has incurred. She has<br />
worked very hard to establish her brand the past 18 years and is always<br />
thinking of ways to help clients. She knows that good relationships and<br />
real estate transactions are not a one-size-fits-all solution. And the results<br />
show her inventive and consistent approach is working.<br />
