Corporate Giving

Thank you Brookside Real Estate Company for sponsoring 10 bags so far this year!!!

Brookside Real Estate was founded over 20 years ago @ 9 E 63rd Street. After 15 years in radio advertising, Jim made a career switch on his dad’s recommendation. “I guess it was ‘in the blood’ as I fell in love with it immediately and finally knew ‘what I wanted to be when I grow up’ at the ripe age of 40!!!” Jim purchased the company and building (formerly a “greasy spoon” called The Toddle House) in 2005, following in his father’s footsteps, a broker/realtor for over 40 years. While the former owner focused exclusively on Brookside, “it’s about the agent, not the sign or name of the company and they have sold in Lakewood, Parkville & Deer Creek to name a few so truly we service Brookside and Beyond… I love what I do, look forward to every day and love being a ‘matchmaker’ whether representing the seller or buyer.”

Having lost a child and having spent nearly 2 months in the NICU at Research Hospital, Gabby’s story touched Jim’s heart. The opportunity to partner with this organization was a “no brainer.” “We hope to be a sponsor with Bags of Fun Kansas City in some fashion for as long as it exists! All of us at Brookside Real Estate Company thank you, your staff, and the volunteers for everything you do for these kids.”
