Description:
WHAT IS MONICA SHAY ALL ABOUT? Monica was born and raised in Fort Myers. Her parents, John and Doretha Shay, owned and operated a very renowned business in Fort Myers called Shay's Restaurant. This gave Monica her skills in Management, Personal Relations, Sales and Service. From the time she was 5 years old, when her Daddy took her fishing, she fell in love with the water and all that it entailed – fishing, boating, snorkeling and skiing. After catching fish for dinner on Sunday, her Dad would stop at A and W Bulb to get some gladiolas, for her mom, and a bushel of corn to go with the fish we caught on the way back from Punta Rassa way back in the 1960's. Back then, you knew just about everybody and their families. After graduating from college at University of Florida, Monica came home and worked for the family business until it sold in 1981. Monica has always been independent and hard working when she decided to embark in a cleaning business called Rent-A-Service until 1987. Her career in Real Estate began in October of 1989 when the market interest rates were in the two figure column. And now, the interest rates are at their lowest in history with plenty of inventory to choose from and the many exciting new and resale locations to live.
