Going the Distance

It’s been said that from humble beginnings come great things. It doesn’t get much more humbling than wearing a six foot peanut suit and having children chuckle and throw peanuts at you. That’s what Greg McCoy remembers most about his first job. He was just a teenager with a willingness to work hard to earn money, so he donned a giant peanut suit and handed out samples in local grocery stores.

Although it was far from his dream job, that anecdote tells you a lot about Greg. Even as a young boy, he demonstrated a strong work ethic and a willingness to go the distance to get a job done right. Greg credits growing up on a farm for instilling those defining traits in him – traits that endure to this day.

Mr. Peanut No More
After graduating high school as the valedictorian of his senior class, Greg earned his bachelor’s degree in industrial engineering at Bradley University and embarked on a 30-year career with Caterpillar, Inc. During that time, he oversaw many high-profile projects from building new manufacturing plants to developing and monitoring business plans for entire divisions of the company. He even spent four years on assignment in Brazil, where Greg and his wife enjoyed absorbing the local culture, meeting new people and experiencing a stunningly beautiful part of the world. During his tenure at Caterpillar, Greg built a reputation for persistence and hard work – the kind of guy you know will get the job done right.

After more than 30 years with the same company, Greg retired and sought a new professional challenge. His independent streak has always found him leaning toward running his own business, so he decided to pursue a career in real estate in 2002. He’s never looked back.

One Important Project
As one of the Tri-County area’s leading real estate professionals, Greg brings a unique perspective to real estate. Much like the positions he held at Caterpillar, he views his role as a project manager, orchestrating every aspect of your home sale or purchase to ensure its success. He doesn’t think of himself as a salesperson, but rather a facilitator whose persistence and hard work ensure a successful conclusion to your transaction.

For buyers, Greg brings a patient, guiding hand that helps them discover the perfect property to fit their needs. When he works with sellers, Greg excels at helping the owners price the house competitively based on their personal goals and aspirations. He also uses proven marketing techniques to ensure every home he lists receives maximum exposure to buyers.

Going the Distance
When you work with Greg McCoy toward the sale or purchase of a home, you can rest assured he is Going the Distance to help you accomplish your goals. Call him today to make the most of your next move.

"Profit occurs when preparation and experience meet opportunity."

When it’s time to sell, you must be confident that every element of negotiating the best terms and the highest price has been set before your home is even listed. Start with the resources I’ve provided. There is no charge for this information. These will help get you started in terms of assessing your real estate situation and planning for a stress-free and successful sale.

The real estate market in Peoria is volatile, especially lately, and it takes an experienced professional to move your house quickly, professionally, and profitably.

When you’ve decided to sell, I will be your advocate, your guide, and your fierce negotiator. I will work hard to make yours a great sale.

I look forward to it.

Sincerely,
Greg
