I Was In Good Hands Today

I was in very "good hands" today as I visited the David Gonzalez Agency Inc. at 200 Connecticut Avenue in  Norwalk.  Christian Flores has been a big fan of DoingItLocal.com for a couple years now and wanted more information on adverting on our site.  I've been a customer of Allstate since 1974 (told you I'm old) so it was a good time for me to go over my auto and homeowner's policy.  I also added their auto club for just $37.50!

The DoingItLocalMobile Needed A Battery Change!

Financing A Home Will Be a Pleasure With Nima

I've purchased two homes in my lifetime.  I remember the realtors, even the lawyers but funny I just don't remember the mortgage people in either transaction.   I do remember the first call I received from Nima to advertise on DoingItLocal.com.  Nima works with Primary Residential Mortgage, Inc.  I felt like I was reconnecting with an old friend.  I met with Nima the next day learned that Nima had the same passion for his work as I do bringing you the happenings in the area!  If you are looking to purchase a home I strongly recommend giving him a call.  It won't cost you anything to call him but like me you might feel like having him for burgers Memorial Day…
