Principals and Staff

The principals of Park Real Estate, Inc. have a deep background in real estate investment, business management, finance, construction and real estate development. Typical of a family-owned business, each member of the management team has come through the ranks of the company's operations. Over the years brothers Ray, Randy and Rick Alcorn gravitated to the functions of the business that captured personal interest, and their combined expertise covers every facet of the organization. They work with key non-family members to create and maintain an organization committed to operational stability and strategic growth.
