Bradley Snyder

I have called Sierra Vista home since 1988 and have been actively involved in the community. Before launching a career in real estate back in 2007, my lengthy background in sales and management in Sierra Vista prepared me for my real estate career. First with Kinney Shoes as a manager for 9 years and 13 years with Famous Sam's Sports Grill in several positions including District Manager and Director of Human Resources. In addition to my business skills and experience, I have been a primary home buyer and seller 14 times, and we have also bought and sold investment property and vacation properties and became a landlord for the first time when I was just 23 years old. WHY DID I BECOME A REALTOR? I am a proud proponent of homeownership and believe people are crazy not to own real estate as either a primary residence or as an investor. It was that passion for real estate that motivated me to pursue a full-time career in real estate. I started my career at Haymore Real Estate where I trained under Gary Haymore who shared his experience and knowledge that set my career on track. I have been an Associate Broker at Sierra Vista Realty for the past five years. I had the pleasure of working under Bob Watkins, a true Pioneer of Real Estate in Sierra Vista and Cochise County. I learned something new from Bob every day. I wear many hats at Sierra Vista Realty including residential/ commercial sales and residential/commercial property management. I am a Full-Time Real Estate Sales Agent specializing in working with first-time homebuyers and investors. I am also a Full-Time Property Manager managing over 200 single-family rentals and a number of commercial rentals.
