A Salute to Our Veterans – Three Real Property Management Veteran Franchise Owners Who Support Their Communities

The Real Property Management franchise organization salutes the many veterans who own a Real Property Management franchise. Meet three franchise owners who support military veterans and make a difference in their communities.

Pedro Cedeño – Real Property Management Dade

In a recent interview with Pedro, this is what he had this to say about his military experience and giving back to pedrofellow military veterans.

“As a Marine I’ve chosen Homes for Our Troops (HFOT) as our office’s charity. HFOT is a nonprofit organization that builds mortgage-free, specially adapted homes nationwide for severely injured veterans post – 9/11, to enable them to rebuild their lives.

We support HFOT through our program called “Rents for Vets” in which we donate a set amount for every lease we sign. We also dedicate some time in creating awareness within our community.

Earlier this year, I ran in the 2016 Walt Disney Marathon to support Homes For Our Troops. As a team, we raised nearly $75,000 for the charity. My Real Property Management Dade office also raffled a three night stay at the team resort the weekend of the race.

We’re grateful for the men, women and their families who continue to rise to the challenge and sacrifice so much — we will always support them.”
