EFWBA was created to give business owners a place to meet, to have a voice for the advancement, development and improvement of the infra-structure in East Fort Worth, to provide an atmosphere for businesses to interact and develop relationships for friendship, community and business.
Member of the Month: Ialeen Cole
I am a full-time residential REALTOR® who takes pride in delivering extraordinary customer service. I am dedicated to educating my clients about the real estate market and walking them through the step of the buying, or selling process. My reputation has been built on being honest, trustworthy and always having my client’s best interest at heart, whether it’s helping a first time home buyer, seasoned buyers upsizing/downsizing, or trying to get top dollar for my sellers. I am also a proud East Fort Worth resident of 20+ years now and I love to brag on our side of town! When I am not working, I love to read, cook and bake, and herd cats. I volunteer for the Meals on Wheels Pet Program and support animal rescues, as well as groups that address food insecurity in our community. It’s great to be giving back locally.
