As a real estate professional, William Robison provides his clients with a suite of services aimed at the buy and hold investors. Most of their clients purchase properties with the intent to renovate and hold for rental. This is a hybrid buy-hold model where a property is purchase is distressed condition, renovated through a team of contractors, then held in property management.

First, the acquisition of properties is managed through Storybook Realty, a company founded by William in 2008 after several years with larger real estate brands, lastly RE/MAX. Through traditional and non-traditional channels, properties are sourced at discounts and contracted for clients.

Second, once acquired, William works with a team of contractors to renovate the property to the specifications recommended for best tenant finish, or as instructed by the client. These services are financially managed by his company, Plaid Management. Through this process, a high degree of transparency is established. This service is managed at a modest project management fee, ideally under retail.
