Ron set a blazing trail to become Top Producing agent at Century 21, then in his 2nd year moved to the Re/Max, which was at the time the largest office in the area. This is when the magic happened, Cathy chose to become an agent as well and Team Pepka was born!  

For 5 years Team Pepka broke the record books in sales and achieved the #1 status in the office as well as the county. In 2004, Ron went to passed the Real Estate Brokers Exam and was awarded a Keller Williams franchise in New Tampa. In 2006, territory in the Manatee area opened up.
