ERIC LANGHJELM Eric is the former owner of VPG Realty. Like many new Realtors, he entered the industry thinking this business is about selling homes. Now 13 years in, he’s come to realize that selling homes isn’t really the business we’re in. This business is about people, their lives, and the problems that need to be solved. Over the course of Eric’s real estate career, he’s been fortunate to have sold over 250 homes on the North Shore and have been just as fortunate to have had the crucial learning experiences that come from all of the deals that he has tried, but failed to put together. Eric knows the North Shore like the back of his hand and knows this business inside and out. With his experience, knowledge, and skills with people, transactions, and the detached market, he can provide guidance and empower you to sharpen your skills.
