While helping thousands of clients successfully invest in a home and a lifestyle, Virginia Cook, Realtors has made its own investment into the communities it serves.

“Most of our sales associates have lived and worked in the Fort Worth area all of their lives,” says Brenda Sims, vice president and manager of the Fort Worth office.  “Our connection to the community, and giving back, is absolutely essential to how we do business.”

It really is all about heart at Virginia Cook, Realtors.

Based in the heart of the City in an office that was originally a furniture store owned by two of the company’s sales associates, Richard and Alden Karotkin, the Fort Worth team has a unique synergy and spirit all its own.

Talented and experienced industry veterans gladly share their wisdom with energetic and enthusiastic rookies, who are just as eager to share their social media savvy in return. And when the call goes out to fill a need in the community, it’s all ‘hands on deck” from the newcomer to the Top Producers.

“Our associates are visibly pouring their hearts into the community,” explains Brenda. “The list of non-profits and charities where we are making a positive impact is as broad as the territory where we are listing and selling properties.”
