Joe Howerton

My guiding principals for a successful career in real estate are responsiveness, knowledge and integrity. My goal is to earn your trust, represent your best interest from start to finish and help make your experience as enjoyable as possible.

I know from my own experience buying and selling homes that not only is it one of the largest financial investments you can make it can be emotionally draining as well. The process requires guidance from a dedicated real estate professional throughout.

Prior to becoming a full time real estate agent I had a successful career spanning 22 years with a local financial institution most recently as the CIO. During my career in banking I became very familiar with the real estate process as a residential and commercial Business Development Officer guiding hundreds of clients through the borrowing process.I also served as the bank's Community Reinvestment Officer promoting financial education to low income residents, promoting various housing programs and assistance to local charitable organizations. I served on the board of Rebuilding Together Montgomery County and assisted Habitat for Humanity on multiple local housing initiatives. The skills I learned in banking translate well to real estate.

I do business throughout Maryland but have chosen to specialize in the town of Damascus and surrounding communities. It is the place I have chosen to raise my own family because of the wonderful schools, convenient commercial district, extensive rural areas and all around slower pace of life. Thank you for reading my profile and if you are considering a move to the Damascus area or need to sell your home please give me a call at (301) 370-5560 or email joehowertonsales@gmail.com
