Let the Voting Begin!
It’s that time again to vote for your favorite Genesee County Businesses! Last year all I had on my mind as I reminded everyone to vote ever day was winning. A little competition is fun and motivational. But this year, the BEST OF is a little more thought provoking to me. Sure, it’s still a fun game, but as we have watched so many of our favorite businesses close their doors or change... [Read more]

Adam Abt: Co-Founder, Broker, Big Daddy
Adam Abt, broker and co-founder of ChangingStreets.com, has been involved with real estate for 16 years. I can clearly recall the day he came into the doctor’s office where I worked and told me about some guy “Hoyt” he knew that he was going into business with, to start a new real estate company. He was a top producer where he was working at the time and he was making more money... [Read more]
