About TGR Realty
Income Property Specialists

TGR Realty – Income Property Specialists was founded in 1992 and is owned and operated by Bob Ritchey.  The company was named for the book, “Think and Grow Rich,” by Napoleon Hill.

The goal of TGR Realty is to help educate investors so that they can successfully invest in income producing real estate.  We don’t want to “just sell you a property.”  Knowledge always increases your probability of success.  TGR Realty has developed a series of books, reports and seminars that will provide you with the knowledge and tools necessary to make intelligent decisions.  After reading our books and reports, viewing our seminars, and counseling with our broker or associates, you will have the confidence and ability to look at properties and determine whether a property will meet your investment needs. “We want to be the company you choose to become a member of your master mind group to help you reach your financial goals.”
