The Wellington Chamber of Commerce Welcomes
TSG Realty As A New Member
By Monica Kallas of SharpShooter Marketing
The Wellington Chamber of Commerce recently had a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for TSG Realty located at 12230 Forest Hill Boulevard, Suite 157, Wellington, Florida. The office is headed by Ivan Velasquez who has many years experience in real estate and in marketing which helps him move properties quickly. In addition, if you are an investor seeking a realtor who truly understands how to make money in today’s real estate market, you should give Ivan a call.
Ivan Velasquez was born and raised in Bogota, Columbia. He earned at B.A. in Marketing and Advertising from Politécnico Grancolumbiano in Bogota. After he graduated, he worked as an account manager with the largest travel agency in South America managing sales, marketing and public relations. Two years later he began work at the Radisson handling sales and big groups that came to their convention center. He briefly owned and operated his own advertising agency with a friend in Bogota but discontinued the business in 2000 in order to move to Miami.
Once in Miami, Ivan began working with his father who owned Home Healthcare Agency which was based in Miami. He was in charge of all the company’s marketing. He also attended FloridaInternationalUniversity at that time to study international business.
In 2003, Ivan became a mortgage broker with a small company and in 2005 he opened his own mortgage business. As the real estate market started dramatically changing, Ivan activated his real estate sales license in 2009 and he started working with Keyes Realty. In 2011, he began working with TSG Realty. In 2012, Ivan opened the doors at the Wellington location.
In describing the business, Ivan said that TSG Realty is one of several affiliates of The Solution Group which is based in Miami and was established in 2008. The website reads as follow: “The Solution Group (“TSG”) is the premier wholesaler of distressed real estate in South Florida.” It also states that it has “developed and successfully implemented a Distressed Assets Program to maximize return on investment in the local South Florida Market after the real estate boom.”
Ivan said that The Solution Group has investors who are primarily from Latin America and Spain and his company manages their real estate investments. The Solution Group found much success in Miami so they expanded into Broward and Palm BeachCounties. Ivan was contacted when the company was expanding to Palm BeachCounty and soon after he became the first person to represent the company in this area.
When describing himself, Ivan said, “I have a lot of experience. I am very familiar with mortgages and very familiar with real estate. I am active all of the time so I know what’s going on with the market. I’m not just buying distressed properties, I’m also putting them back on the market for rent. I also average five to six closings every month. And I am bilingual so I am here for the Latin Community too.”
Ivan noted that he and his company deal with all sorts of properties and people – not just investment properties.
