Owning your own business is like taking a leap of faith for yourself and those around you. It's risky, but you take the chance because you believe in yourself and know that the outcome will be worth it. Many people view owning your own business as such a daunting and overwhelming journey. A study by Bloomberg states that 8 out of 10 businesses fail within the first year of their existence. For us at Burgan, even more than 40 years after opening our doors, we still operate with a mentality that we need to be better.  

We believe doing things right.  We believe in being transparent in everything we do and that learning from experience is the best educator.  If you are trying to start up a business or figure out a way to make your business better, this week's...

Planning a trip is very similar to finding the right house.  Before you commit, you want to make sure you find the right place and have as much information about where you are going because, let's face it, you're going to have to live with the decision you make for you and your family.  It requires research and, while you can do it on your own, having the guidance of someone who is an expert makes the entire process better for everyone involved. Yep, choosing your home is a lot like planning a vacation and the team at Burgan is happy to have the newest member of the Burgan Bunch, Kim Sauerwein, a proven expert at both of them.  

For more than a decade, Kim Sauerwein has been a successful real estate agent in the Mahoning Valley.  A native of Columbiana and al...

Burgan Real Estate has been winning in straight sets this year when it comes to landing new agents for their Burgan Bunch. The addition of Canfield real estate agent, Jill Herock, has the area's largest independently owned real estate agency serving up aces to their clients.

A graduate of Youngstown State University, she earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration and put it to good use immediately. Through her career, she found success in sales positions at both Hammer Corp. and with Superior Beverage Group, both in Cleveland. It wasn't until 2015 that she realized her game was better suited in a different game – real estate. She decided to acquire her P.P.S. designation and enter into real estate, landing here now, at the top of her game,...

Finally…SUMMER!  The weather has changed, the sun is out and, let's be honest, finding how to say motivated during the summer is more challenging than the tasks themselves.  The last place you want to be is in the office.  We often find ourselves losing motivation to achieve the goals we have at our careers and jobs because we'd rather be doing something else out in the sun.  From golf and swimming, to enjoying Mill Creek MetroParks or a day on the lake in boat, there is some place else we'd rather be than in the office.  But leaving unfinished work or coming up short at the end of any sales month and, most importantly, the kick off to the best selling period for real estate because you wanted to take off a little early to enjoy the weather, actually does more h...
