Local REALTOR®, Wes Ball, Receives Emeritus Award for 40 Years of Service as a Real Estate Professional in the Association of REALTORS®
February 10, 2014 – Carson City, NV – Local Carson City resident, Wes Ball, recently received Emeritus status at the National Association of Realtors® 2013 Convention and Expo in San Francisco. He also received recognition from his local chapter, the Sierra Nevada Association of Realtors®, at a recent membership breakfast meeting. This prestigious honor is awarded to real estate professionals who have been a member of the National Association of Realtors® for 40 cumulative years and who have made a valuable and lasting contribution to the real estate community.
Wes Ball's passion with real estate began in 1958 when he saw a billboard off of Highway 101 (before it was a freeway) that offered “New Homes with Zero Down and a $10 Deposit.” He and his wife, Gloria, made that purchase and sold their house a year later for a $1,400 profit and then moved to Carmel, California. In Carmel, Wes obtained his real estate license and eventually opened his own office.
Several years later, Wes and a construction partner started developing subdivisions in the Salinas Valley. His partner would build the houses and then Wes would sell the homes. During this time, Wes and his partner completed and sold over 1,000 homes in 13 subdivisions.
Wes and Gloria made their way to South Lake Tahoe, and then onto Carson City in 2,000. Since moving to Carson City, Wes has been with Charles Kitchen Realty, a full-service real estate company offering representation for buyer and sellers, and also offering property management expertise and services. Since he has been in Carson City, Wes has been an active member of the Sierra Nevada Association of Realtors®.
