MEET THE FOUNDERS
Lorenzo & Katrina Baldwin
Katrina and Lorenzo's journey began in the most unexpected of places—a McDonald's drive-thru where they met while ordering the classic All-American meal. Their chance encounter soon blossomed into a romance that led to their wedding in June 1991.
Over the years, Katrina and Lorenzo have traveled the globe together (military & civilian), embracing diverse cultures and gathering a wealth of unforgettable experiences. Their shared adventures have only strengthened their bond, providing them with a deep understanding and appreciation of the world around them.
Today, they reside in the Hampton Roads area, where they have turned their passion for real estate into a rewarding venture. Specializing in multifamily and commercial properties, Katrina and Lorenzo are dedicated to helping others achieve their investment goals while securing profitable returns for themselves. Their journey is a testament to the power of love, adventure, and the pursuit of a shared All-American dream(s).
