Whippet Good: Allen and Barbara Doeringer’s Success Model

Celebrating Small Family Businesses

In this episode, we celebrate the inspiring journey of Allen and Barbara Doeringer, the dynamic duo behind Whippet Properties.

From their serendipitous meeting in the real estate industry to enduring personal challenges, they have successfully navigated their professional and personal lives together for over 25 years.

The discussion explores their start in a manufactured home community, the establishment of their real estate careers, and the formation of their own brokerage. We found many parallels between our lives in this story, because our own business journey included developing a mobile home park a few miles from where the Doeringers worked and a later transition into real estate brokerage.

They share insights on working as a team, handling crises like terminal illness and divorce, and the impact of COVID-19 on their business.

Their story highlights the importance of leveraging individual strengths, the value of patience, mutual respect, and the benefits of creativity in overcoming market challenges.

Join us for an engaging conversation filled with wisdom, resilience, and the power of teamwork.
