Long & Foster Real Estate welcomes James Kelly to its Easton office. Kelly will specialize in working with homebuyers and sellers.

“We are very excited and fortunate to welcome James to our team of highly trained professionals,” said Martha Witte Suss, manager of the Easton office. “The combination of Long & Foster and James unique skills and knowledge will no doubt provide the highest level of service to local buyers and sellers.”

Kelly is participating in Long & Foster’s Success Path program, which offers extensive training and resources for agents at any stage of their career. The curriculum includes tools for agents to build their business, mentor-style programs, techniques for prospecting, advice for working with buyers and sellers, skills for negotiating and more. Kelly holds membership in the Mid-Shore Board of Realtors.

“The dynamics of today’s residential real estate market are constantly changing. Participating in our Success Path program has provided James with the right tools to meet those changing dynamics,” said Gary Scott, president of Long & Foster Real Estate. “We welcome James to Long & Foster, a company that has helped local buyers and sellers reach their homeownership goals for over 50 years.”

Kelly relocated to the Eastern Shore after retiring from a long career with the Federal Aviation Administration as an air traffic controller in the Washington, D.C., area. An avid boater and a veteran of the US Navy, he needed to return to the shore. His love of the water and his passion for the Eastern Shore make him an invaluable asset in helping area consumers find a home in the perfect location. Together with the support of the Long & Foster family of companies, Kelly is the right person to help buyers and sellers fulfill their real estate needs
