To all our visitors:
A MESSAGE FROM ANDREW PECK

    The diversity and quality of our web site I hope will reflect Teran's ability to provide far more than courteous and professional help in buying or selling a home.

    Our expertise in the field of property tax reduction has benefited our regular clients as well as many homeowners who are not buyers or sellers. Our recent victory in Ulster County Supreme Court on behalf of clients resulted in more than 80 homeowners receiving property tax reductions, each between $600. and $1,700. every year, and these savings will continue for a number of years.

    My 15 years experience as an investor at real estate auctions enabled me to find bargains for Teran clients like a 3 bedroom farmhouse on 14 acres for $7,000. near Hunter Mountain Ski Center. Is there a catch? Not really, just that we don't find them every day, but with diligent searching, we do find several each year, and immediately advise those auction clients who retain us. One of our agents does nothing for Teran but research auctions.

    I am available for consultation with you about any real estate question or problem. My education and experience are extensive. Click Here if you would like to read my resumé. Your comments and suggestions will be most welcome. We'll send more information, no obligation, or you can e-mail Teran. For personal service you may call us toll-free: 1-800-57-TERAN.

    If you've read this far, your interest is appreciated, I hope to hear from you.

    Yours truly,

    Andrew Peck Broker & Owner, CENTURY 21 Teran Realty P.V.P.M.P.C.

A Brief Resumé

Email Andrew
Education:
  • Wooster Preparatory School, Danbury, CT: diploma 1961
  • University of Vermont "Straight A" Student & College Dropout 1962
      Medieval prohibitions of the era prevented freshmen from developing a career (no telephone or car allowed). Quit to become stage manager for the Turnau Opera Company as "Artists in Residence" at Antioch College and for the National Tour of 27 other colleges in the U.S.
  • Psychoanalysis: 1962 - 1974
  • AA: Mathematics, Ulster County College 1974
  • BA: Psychology, SUNY New Paltz 1976
  • MSW: Washington University, St. Louis 1978
  • "ABD" Clinical Psychology: SUNY Albany 1981
Business Experience:
  • Building Contractor, Woodstock, New York, 1970 t0 1976
      New homes and renovations. One home featured in "Woodstock Handmade Houses."
  • Landlord 30+ years
      I've had more than enough of this thankless job.
  • Real Estate Investor: 70+ purchases/sales
      I love it, like a child on a treasure hunt -- for real treasure.
  • Tax Reduction Agent since 1986
      Ulster County's leading tax reduction specialist from 1986 to 2002, winning property tax reductions for over 500 clients' properties in Supreme Courts of Ulster and Greene Counties. Of the 27 Supreme Court Article 7 (tax) lawsuits I have filed, 23 resulted in savings for every property petitioned for. Total savings for clients exceeded $1,200,000. Regrettably, the law recently changed for the worse, making it far harder to win fairness the way we used to.

A Career in Real Estate

Recently I ran the ad below. It can be quite difficult getting started as a real estate agent, but extremely rewarding for those who achieve success. I've heard the statistic that in the current market 9 out of 10 who begin as an agent drop out within a year, and that is certainly possible. Therefore I try to emphasize and enumerate the difficulties and the hurdles to anyone thinking of making the commitment.

I'm happy to speak to or meet with anyone who is considering becoming a real estate professional in our area. This page is brief because I believe speaking with you is the only way to satisfactorily convey the nature of the profession. If you're interested in the varied career experience I bring to Teran, check my resumé.


I LOVE MY WORK!
Andrew Peck, Owner/Broker
CENTURY 21 Teran Realty
