Ron Taylor is a first generation auctioneer. But with three sons and two daughters in the family, it certainly will not be the last generation of auctioneers. Living in a rural area on a fifty acre farm in the Inez community of Warrenton, NC, auctions have always been a fascination to Ron. It all started with a local auctioneer doing auctions in a hay field directly across from his farm. In fact, before becoming an auctioneer himself, Ron had the local auctioneer sell some of his farm equipment he no longer needed and got a good price at the auction. Just out of college and after spending three years in the US Army (1966-69), Ron started his professional career in the insurance and investment business in 1974 with the Prudential Insurance Company in Raleigh, NC before starting his own agency in 1980 as a financial planner where he worked primarily with business owners. In 1978 he received the coveted Chartered Life Underwriter (CLU) professional designation and in 1983, the Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC) designation. In 1999 he started his present company The Restorer, Inc., as a real estate investment and management company. Ron has experience in the foreclosure and bankruptcy markets. He has helped owners in a foreclosure situation by working out a "short sale" with the lenders, thus stopping the foreclosure before it reached the courthouse steps. He has also worked with Chapter 13 individuals and couples that were "dismissed" from their filing. In addition to holding an auctioneer license, Ron is a real estate broker. He is a graduate of the Mendenhall School of Auctioneering located in High Point, North Carolina. He is married to the former Paula Carraway of Snow Hill, North Carolina.
