Jim Brouse comes to Jack Chivers Realty with a wealth of business, sales and life experience. Having grown up in North Dakota, Jim is no stranger to Midwest ideals and work ethics. He took those qualities and applied them to serving in the United States Navy in the early Sixties. During his four year tour of duty, he was stationed on the USS Cabildo LSD 16, an amphibious landing ship.

Starting early in direct sales with one of the nation’s largest, most successful insurance companies, Jim quickly rose in the ranks to senior management. His integrity coupled with management and sales intelligence paid off by earning him a coveted office just down the hall from business icon, W. Clement Stone.

Jim’s success allowed him the luxury of an early retirement and time to spend following his son’s successful athletic career in the Perham school district.

Jim continued to reside in the Perham area. But Jim’s urge to sell was starting to surface—once a salesman, always a salesman. The time in the Perham lakes area gave him an appreciation for what the area’s real estate can provide both in enjoyment and in a new career. That, coupled with Jim’s vitality and passion for working directly with clients in helping them achieve their financial goals, drew him into the real estate marketing industry.

It’s no wonder that Jim became an instant success in real estate, becoming a high-volume sales producer. Jim made an unprecedented quick ascent in production totals landing him in the top five real estate sales agents [in production] in the area, his first full year! He has also served on the Lakes Country Association of Realtors Board as Director and President. Jim lives by the philosophy, “My desire as a realtor is to provide honesty, integrity and client commitment.” That commitment translates into proving the best service for Jack Chivers Realty clients and customers.
