HISTORY
In 1944, when Mrs. Frank T. "Billie" Ross opened AVR Realty, the Dow Jones average was approaching 153. Everyone knew the war was over and the GIs would return jobless to factories closing down their defense manufacturing. Interest rates were below 2%, and two years later, inflation would be at 30%. However, AVR has been selling, renting and managing San Mateo County properties out of the same office at 1169 Broadway, Burlingame, since that time. AVR's second broker, from 1961 to 1988, Anna V. Bruce, was also president of the San Mateo/Burlingame Board of Realtors during the years of 1978 and 1979. Under her administration, the board changed from printed, mailed information to computers. The current broker, Ross C. Bruce represents the third generation at AVR, making it the oldest continually operating family-held real estate firm in San Mateo County.
