The Realtor Helping Veterans: Alain Oliveros

Growing up in Miami, Alain Oliveros always loved his hometown because of the weather, beaches, diverse culture, variety of food, and the people.

As an ambitious creative with marketing and people skills along with a passion for architecture and design, it was an obvious choice to choose a path in real estate. A choice he made in 2018 when he became a real estate agent with his primary focus on Miami Lakes, Downtown Miami, and Pinecrest.

He began working with veterans thanks to his sister, an Army officer in Doral SouthCom who first referred some of her friends that were in the process of buying a home or transferring over. He really enjoyed helping veterans,  for Alain, it was a way to show his appreciation for their service, and as a reminder, he always leaves them a little gift after they purchase a home.

“Social media will play a key role in real estate for the next generation of homes,” buyers says Alain. “Social media helps keep you top-of-mind, when someone hears the word real estate, you better be the first person they think of.
