Born in the suburbs of Washington, D.C. in 1975, Phillip Vongsavang spent most of his childhood in Bangkok, Thailand before returning to the D.C. area to complete his schooling. After graduating from Watkins Mill High School, Phil “The Realtor” Vongsavang  joined the U.S.M.C. but his enlistment was cut short due to medical reasons. Even so, Phil “The Realtor” Vongsavang takes great pride in his service and all the fighting men and women of all branches of the U.S. Armed Services.

                In late 2001, Phil “The Realtor” Vongsavang met a beautiful young lady from Columbus, Georgia. After charming this lovely lady with his incredible sense of humor and good looks, she agreed that, Mrs. Vongsavang wasn't actually that hard to spell and did have a nice “ring” to it. Phil and Hannah were married in  September of 2002. Shortly after the birth of their eldest daughter the Vongsavang family relocated from Maryland to Hannah’s home town of Columbus, Georgia. “It was just too hectic in D.C.. It would take me forty-five minutes to an hour just to drive the 5 miles from work to home” remarked Phil “The Realtor” about the family's decision to move to Georgia. Phil “The Realtor” Vongsavang received his Real Estate license in October of 2007 and, shortly after, teamed up with Shepherd Brokers.com.GMAC, the only Premier Service providers in the Columbus, G.A./ Phenix City, A.L. area. Phil has celebrated (and survived) his first year in Real Estate in one of the toughest markets many of his veteran contemporaries have seen, still having managed to make a few sales!  With almost a decade and a half in retail management Phil understands that excellent Customer Service is the most important part of any buying or selling experience. When asked about his service philosophy, Phil said: “It only takes 20% effort to provide 80% service. But to achieve that last 20% takes 80% effort. That’s were most folks drop the ball.”
