Gary Blake, Sales Associate

Falling in love with Venice while visiting my in-laws during Winter breaks made it easy for my wife and I to decide to buy a home here in 2022. We both retired from education, with me working in a leadership role in Special Education in the 8th largest school district in Minnesota and my wife as a high school vocal music teacher/theater director. In my educational career, I was always driven to help people (students and their families) identify their goals and work to accomplish those goals. Once I retired, I knew I needed to identify my own career goal and work to achieve it. Having a son who sells real estate in Minnesota, our conversations sparked my interest in making real estate sales my next career. I am excited to be part of Gulf Shores Realty so I can use my skills to help others reach for and attain their dream lifestyles of living in this vibrant and thriving community. I look forward to our work together in buying and selling homes and making your dreams of having your perfect home or second home come true!
