The man, the myth…
I’ve lived in Madison since coming here for college in 1993. Attractive for it’s proximity to Milwaukee and the idyllic university experience I had heard whispered about the halls of Riverside University High School in Milwaukee, my bachelor’s degree came years later from the Communication Arts school, a concentration on Radio, TV and Film.
Targeting local media to satisfy my creative and financial desires, I took a position as Account Manager with Woodward Communications. Later to become Entercom Communications, they own and operate local radio stations WOLX, WMMM and WCHY. The position allowed me to service a broad customer base, develop and implement marketing campaigns and provide an avenue for my creativity through copy writing.
During my 6-year tenure at Entercom I achieved many personal milestones. In no particular order they include meeting and marrying my wife Sandy, buying our first and second rental properties, and the arrival of a daughter, Evelyn.
Challenging myself academically and in new career directions, courses in Marketing and Advertising Sales earned me a spot in the Entercom 2003 President’s Circle, honored for exceeding annual goals and developing true partnerships with my clients. I also completed courses in Home Inspection, the required education for my Real Estate License and more recently acquired my Brokers License.
In April 2005, I joined Home Realty, learning the ropes from friend and mentor Stephanie Miller. Since that time I have worked with buyers and sellers on deals ranging from luxury downtown condominiums to suburban homes nestled in the woods.
In July of 2007, I saw that in order to achieve some of the goals I had set forth, I would need to call on the resources of a larger real estate firm to take my career and my ability to serve to the next level. It was then that I decided to join Bunbury and Associates. In 2008, we added a second daughter to our family, Lola. As such it was also the year I renovated a former two unit into our current home. I do enjoy many other pursuits, ranging from remodeler and landlord, to copywriter and urban chicken rancher. Many have something to do with real estate or home ownership and others allow for creative outlets or the pursuit of larger goals.
Home ownership, Real Estate Sales and Rental Property ownership has shown me a road to wealth and a career path that brings success not at the cost of others but in helping others achieve that same success. Whatever your location on this road, I can help you to your next exit. I look forward to working with you.
Warm Regards,
Ben Anton,
Bunbury and Associates
