Advocate for the LGBT Community and Improving Our Quality of Lifestyle

Commitment, passion and dedication to changing what you perceive as a social injustice and prejudice was the drive that encouraged Jeff Hammerberg to create a monumental service to the American LGBT community, one that he had envisaged for a quarter of a century. 2004 was a significant year in realizing his dream, as Jeff Hammerberg, founder of the largest LGBT real estate marketplace in the world, reaped the rewards of his vision that had been nurtured for 25 years.

During the 1990s, he worked in residential real estate, and observed first hand the "quiet homophobia" that pervaded the industry and silently but effectively hampered the lives of LGBT consumers nationwide by placing barriers between them and home ownership. By 1997, with little more than foresight, a strategy, and zealous fortitude, Hammerberg broke away from the traditional real estate community to create the first virtual real estate marketplace for LGBT clients.

Beginning with homelounge.com, an Internet company dedicated to assisting home buyers and sellers in the USA, Hammerberg gradually added services and sites, while adhering to a strict personal commitment to donate proceeds from his businesses directly into the LGBT community.

By 2004, he had created www.lesbianhomes.com, www.gayrealestateplanet.com, and www.gaymortgageloans.com, which are all ground-breaking companies in terms of concept and adherence.

Hammerberg developed the mortgage site, for example, to enable his clients to obtain financing, and after experiencing no response from many of the premier mortgage companies in the United States, he sort out other avenues of approach. "I was continually shot down by national lenders while trying to secure a lender that could service our clients in every city in America," Hammerberg explains. However, 2004 proved to be a significant year with www.gaymortgageloans.com expanding into a database of more than 150 lenders that stretched from coast to coast, and were eager to serve LGBT consumer with financing options in every American city.

This saw Hammerberg celebrate a landmark accomplishment, with the doubling of the prior year's sales, and more than 30 million dollars worth of real estate transactions successfully closed for LGBT clients. His vision became achievement upon launching www.gayrealestate.com, a global real estate services company with markets beyond the borders of the USA, and beyond the imagination of most conventional real estate firms.

Hammerberg is proud of the fact that he donates 10 % of gross revenues to the LGBT community, while most corporations in America donate not more than 1 or 2 percent of their net income. "We are well on our way to closing at least one deal per day! We have donated thousands of dollars to hundreds of organizations, including HRC (Human Rights Campaign), GLAAD, Lambda Legal, National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, Dozens of AIDS organizations, Breast Cancer Organizations, Gay choir's, Gay Theatre, and others" says Hammerberg, "2004 was our best year ever, but this is just the beginning!"

And, as Jeff predicted 2004 was just the beginning, as 2006 has proven to be his most monumental year and the best yet, with Hammerberg closing more than a deal a day nationwide, resulting in over $60,000,000.00 in closed business for the year.
