Craig Blakeley retired 25-year combat veteran at United States Air Force: Before launching a career in real estate, Craig was already established as a successful, highly respected and decorated non-commissioned officer in the United States Air Force. Raised in San Diego, CA, Craig joined the United States Air Force in 1981, entering the Medical Materiel career field. It was here over the next 25 years that Craig honed his skills as a manager, leader, strategic thinker and negotiator, attributes that have equipped him well to be the successful realtor he is today. When the United States Air Force transferred him to San Antonio, TX in 1994, Craig continued his faithful and honorable service to the Armed Forces of the United States of America, eventually retiring in 2006 as Superintendent, Air Force Medical Operations Agency (AFMOA), Port San Antonio, Texas (Lackland Annex). It was after the birth of his son in 2000 that Craig began to consider a change of career so he could work closer to home and it was his love of anything to do with customer service that led to his decision to become a realtor. He has become a rising star in the real estate business for the same reasons his first career was marked with early and sustained success. It is the application of all his considerable talents to the task at hand combined with his intelligence, maturity, focus and attention to detail in the service of his clients that comprise the winning formula that has led to Craig’s rapid success in the real estate business. Sustained success depends on satisfied customers. The reason Craig has an unsurpassed record of client satisfaction can be found in his unique approach which combines the attributes of a successful business-man with the client-service focus of a 5-star concierge to deliver an extraordinary quality of service to each and every client.
