Ben Preston, Associate Broker

I am a Lafayette, AL native, but settled in Birmingham after graduating from Auburn University in 2000 with a Criminology degree. After working as a private investigator for six years, I became a full-time real estate agent in 2006 and have worked my way up to Assistant Manager of the Hoover office. I have all the experience needed to guide a buyer or seller on their next real estate transaction. 

I am a Hoover resident with my wife and best friend, Laura, who teaches in Vestavia. Additionally, we have two wonderful girls, Claire and Mary.
