Tom Kirchendorfer literally has been a REALTOR® his entire adult life, getting his license 40 years ago. He grew up on the westside of Cleveland, Ohio. Early evidence of his drive and focus on accomplishment was attaining both his Bachelor of Business Administration in Accounting and also his Master of Accountancy & Financial Information Systems, both in just over a four years while working 16-24 hours per week at a 9-11 store. This allowed him to attain his goal of joining the international CPA firm in the Business Consulting Group rather than auditing with Deloitte, Haskins & Sells (now Deloitte-Touche).

During his five years in the Consulting Group, he also worked as a REALTOR®. His love was real estate, not public accounting. It was a need to work in a more personal, outgoing industry which caused him to leave D,H&S in 1986 to pursue his love – real estate as his sole career.

During his 19 years as a REALTOR® in the Cleveland, Ohio area, he attained tremendous success in real estate. Having invaluable experience and knowledge in finance, economics, financial planning, tax, etc., allowed him to excel in residential sales, new home sales, investment and commercial as well as the sale of some businesses. Tom’s analytical acumen helped him to have success in the Builder Marketing Service group of a large real estate firm he worked for in the 1980s and 1990s. He had a true love of new construction, development and building and excelled in New Home sales at a new Golf & Country Club development.

The next 21 years were even better focusing on second home sales! In 2003, he earned his broker license and opened up his own real estate company. He has been the Top Producing Agent in the county he lived and worked in 10 years straight, truly dominating the sales in a Lake Community in Ohio. He attributes his success in this indeavor to a mentor who took him under his wing in the mid 1990s and taught him the difference between “Selling a LifeStyle, more than Selling Homes” at the Golf & Country Club community where he was again the top salesperson.

In addition to being a Real Estate Broker in both Florida and Ohio, he also is a licensed Auctioneer in both Florida and Ohio.

Tom came to Marco Island, Florida in 2013 on a Sunday morning after breakfast in Naples, Florida. Wanting to see Marco Island after hearing many good things about it, he drove down to Marco and fell in love with it that day. To this day, he remembers walking out on a lot on Dan River and saying to himself, “Wow. This is gorgeous … I will live here someday.”

The dream came true when he purchased his first home on the Island in 2015 and then another in 2016. Now with a home to live in and a vacation rental, he is truly “Living The Dream.”

Experience, confidence, knowledge and his drive and determination will be the traits that you will appreciate most about Tom. His skillful negotiating will also truly be an appreciated skill for his clients. Though, he has been told that his sense of humor and embracing smile may be some of his best attributes.
