Gail Dugas-smith
Originally from New England (Rhode Island to be exact), my husband and I relocated to sunny Charlotte County Florida back in late 2003 to escape the cold and that dreaded 'snow.' I realize some people actually enjoy the snow, but we were ready for a change in climate. Having been a REALTOR there for several years prior, and enjoying the many customers I worked with, it seemed only natural that I would continue in the profession here. In addition to the years in real estate up north, my diverse background includes 12 years at the corporate offices of CVS pharmacy, as well as 15 years in inside sales positions in successful marketing firms in New England.
My husband, a retired police officer, and I reside in Port Charlotte, FL, along with our two dogs, Buffett (yes, we're Parrotheads!) and Shadow (also a retired police officer). Our two-legged family members, a grown son and daughter, as well as many other endearing family members, still reside in New England, which gives us great reasons to travel up there in the warm weather and enjoy all the great food!
In 2004, I joined the Coldwell Banker Sunstar Realty office on Kings Highway in Port Charlotte, FL. I am very pleased and excited with the many relationships I have experienced since arriving in Port Charlotte, and look forward to meeting and hopefully working with many more of you!
In addition to the professional real estate and civic affiliations listed below, I am also active with Habitat for Humanity in the Charlotte County area. I am a Certified Notary Signing Agent, and as a Notary Public, perform marriage ceremonies.
