The wife and I are building a new home through Fischer Homes. Today we did our "price-out" with a sales counselor named Tony. When we arrived at the model home, Tony had a picture of his kids next to Larry Johnson up on his computer. The idiot that I am could not piece together the clues, despite knowing that Tony's last name was also Johnson. When he finally told me that Larry Johnson is his dad, I was so impressed that my wife almost told me to calm down.
It has been a great pleasure working with Tony through out this entire process. He has been an absolute professional, and a humble gentleman. You can tell he was raised by great parents. I also had no idea that Tony's brother played in the NFL.
Tony did say that his dad will probably coach for another 3-4 years. Later this evening, Tony texted me the picture of the "Sold" sign sitting in the lot that I just purchased. I casually turned to a buddy and said, "hold on, Larry Johnson's son just texted me... we're talking business, no big deal." haha
If anyone is in the need for a new build, I'd highly recommend Fischer Homes, and using Mr. Johnson.
