Author Information

Ross Wilson's first inclination to write emerged at the tender age of 10 when he penned a little boy's adventure story. To him, it was exciting stuff. But it was a decade later before his skills were officially recognized when, while attending Sheridan College, he was awarded the Archdeacon W.P. Robertson Prize in English. Since then, he has contributed to magazines and Real Estate Monthly (REM), a national trade newspaper, and enjoyed a sojourn as a columnist with a small town newspaper. After studying business at Ryerson and a stint in the new home industry, he entered the resale realty business. Forty years later, he can boast a career that encompassed a highly productive referral sales practice and extensive experience as a sales person, brokerage owner, manager, trainer and mentor. It's been said that those who can't do, teach. During a tumultuous life mixed with both personal adversity and much reward, this quiet introvert did it. It's also been said that a writer should write what they know. As an ardent reader and life-long student in the field, he knows real estate. He currently lives a peaceful life - with occasional business travails to the city - in rural Ontario. He may be reached at www.realty-voice.com.
