Meet your Agent!
“Don’t take candy from strangers.” As true today as it was back when days your mom, dad, teacher, or local policeman warned you. Except candy wasn’t a metaphor for the brilliant condominiums we have waiting for you.
Getting to know us better is probably as imperative to you as getting to know you better is to us. You are as busy as you say you are, and we get that. In a perfect world we’d all have the time to sit down for breakfast or lunch with strangers so that we could make them new friends. In lieu of that, take a look at our agents’ bios. And when you come in the first time, greet us by our names and as a friend.
DEACON ANDREWS
Deacon was born on a home on, believe it or not, a range. After graduating from The University of Maryland, “GO TERPS!”, Deacon decided to take a stab at big city living.
In 1997, he traveled from his hometown of Mt. Vernon via bus to New York, got off, grabbed a New York Times, and immediately found an entry-level position in real estate. Despite having majored in Physical Education Deacon was put to work immediately opening doors to apartments citywide.
His 10 years of experience is really more like 20. You can just see it in his face. Seriously, he looks 10 years older than he actually is!
In his own words, “I am here to make peoples’ lives better by assisting them with THE most important decision they’ll even make; moving to The Willy-B. My father used to say, “I take great pleasure in putting butts in seats.” He worked as an usher for the triple A farm squad in our hometown, but I think it rings true for me too. I want to see you sitting somewhere here, in a happy home, for the rest of your lifetime.”

KATIE NORMAN-KRUEGER
The irony of having two last names that are shared by two of cinema’s most notorious villains isn’t lost on Katie. But having both has always been a convenient conversation ice-breaker at the many charity social events that her and her husband throw throughout the year.
When Katie isn’t doing everything she can to help people just like you find home sweet home, she does the rest that she can. The everything she does to help you takes out a lot, so the rest is all she can do to do some good in this world. Riviera Real Estate hired Katie because of her undying determination to put everyone else first. Way to go Katie!!!
In her own words, “I do what I can, and most of the time I feel like that isn’t enough. If you aren’t happy than I’m not happy. And when I’m not happy my husband, my dogs Scoot and Mushy, my cats Gilber and James, and my best friend Lisa are all not happy. That kind of pressure pushes me to make sure that when you work with me YOU will always be happy.”

JUSTIN D. THOMPSON
Justin’s father worked in real estate, Justin’s father’s father worked in real estate, and Justin’s father’s father’s father has been credited with the creation of the half-bath. Google it and you’ll see. Bottom line, homes is what Justin knows. His only shortcoming is using too much technical jargon when describing the creation of brand new units with clients just like you.
We welcomed Justin with open arms, and a few extra bucks, to make sure that he was with Team Riviera. And we did that for you, because you deserve it. Anything less than Justin or people just like him isn’t what you deserve, the last time we checked.
In his own words, “I am here to serve one purpose, and that purpose is pretty evident from the minute you walk through our doors. I’ve never had a dissatisfied client. And I don’t intend on letting you be the first one. I think my record based on the number of times I’ve been invited to a young couple’s painting party, 63, speaks for itself.”

Matt Hairyman
Our most senior resident Hairyman is here to make sure everyone understands that Williamsburg isn’t just for kids anymore, sorry silly rabbit.
A long time pro with a decorated career in the field, who has decided to make Riviera Real Estate his last stop. He is infamous in the industry for inviting people to play “one quick game of checkers” before ever mentioning a single property to them. This has made him a favorite amongst the staff here, who love him for his disregard for the old slogan “time is money”; what a guy.
In his words, “Everything I am is right there written on my forehead as it were. What you get from me is the real McCoy. Buying a home is tricky business, and most of us have been fooled a time or two, so basically what I do is try and make you the magician. What can we pull out of your hat together?”
