My name is Travis Tripucka and this is my story; While growing up in New Jersey, I developed passion and a strong work ethic from my father; two-time NBA All Star, Kelly Tripucka. After a two year stint in the NFL as a free agent long snapper with the St. Louis Rams and New York Jets, I turned to sales to curb my competitiveness. After moving out of my parent’s in 2013, I was a young guy looking for a rental and casually shopping to buy in Bloomfield, NJ. I had no idea where to start or what to do. After asking around, I was paired with multiple agents and lenders who had no clue how to help me. I had a million questions, but unfortunately my Realtor® didn’t have a million answers so I gave up. I had now worked and gained experience in business and sales for years, but after the monotonous office calls in a regulated and shifting pharmaceutical industry, I decided that I was too talented to stay in the same position, and not continuing to grow as a person. I passed the state exam in February 2018 and I was a licensed Realtor®! I stayed with Allergan Pharmaceuticals for 2 months before being laid off. I was nervous to jump full time into real estate with no salary and no benefits, but no guts no glory! After struggling through my first year and getting the word out to everyone that I was a Realtor®, business picked up. Ever since then, my entire world has changed for the better. To have a career that allows me to think critically, be creative, engage people without limitations, and affords me the freedom to work when I want is awesome! As a kid, I grew up wanting to be a Pro Athlete or a U.S. MarshalI. Never did I think I would end up a real estate agent, but I take pride in what I do and helping people find a home provides me a profound way of changing their lives for the better. I love what I do and I wake up every single morning with passion, excited to get into the office. I have made amazing connections and friends for life doing this, and I cannot wait to see what the future holds for me! Hopefully I can add YOU to that list. THE REALTOR YOU CAN TRUST.
