    Vince-MuscatWe’re most pleased to announce the latest addition to the Thompson’s Realty agent team – Vince Muscat.

    Vince got his real estate sales license in 2002 and is the managing member of Apparent Technologies, LLC – which is creating PaperFree Agent — an advanced computing system for real estate offices. I’ve had a look at both the lead routing product and the beginnings of a real estate transaction management system that is, honestly, second to none. Look for more about PaperFree agent soon.

    Vince is a graduate of Springhill College, where he received his B.S. degree and the Maston Medal for excellence in chemistry. He is also a graduate of Florida State University, where he received his doctorate in chemistry. He is a published author of scientific work and is recognized with a National Registry in Clinical Chemistry.

    I could throw out some fancy job titles Vince has held in the past:

    • Director of Marketing and Client Services at Sunquest Information Systems in Tucson
    • Co-director of IT at Maryland Medical Lab in Baltimore
    • VP of Marketing at Motorola/Emtek Healthcare Systems in Phoenix

    Yes, he’s crazy smart. But you know what’s more important?

    He’s a good man, and treats his clients right.

    Vince has two children, a son Chris who is the Assistant Women’s Volleyball coach at the University of Missouri and his daughter Jen teaches 3rd grade in Avondale.

    He’s the proud Grandfather of Will and Hannah, has another grandkid due in two weeks and #4 will be here in four months.

    If he had more time, he’d be on the golf course. He even makes his own clubs! (I wonder if he can craft something to fix my slice…)

    We like Vince. You will too.
