Scott Smolen established his roots in the business world by cutting lawns in his hometown of Bowie. When Scott was in middle school, he started a landscaping business with one employee—himself—and no plans for expansion. He was just looking to make a few bucks before going back to school. By the end of the summer, the business began to take root in the community, and Scott envisioned for the first time a future for himself as an entrepreneur.
Over the next decade, the business grew strong throughout Bowie, Crofton, Gambrills, and Odenton. It had 25 employees and a long list of satisfied customers when Scott sold the company. The experience gave him a solid foundation for success as a businessman and allowed him to branch out to pursue other business opportunities and interests. Scott moved from Bowie to Piney Orchard and decided to pursue a new career in computer networking. Although he enjoys computers and networks, it lacked the personal element that Scott had come to enjoy as he built his landscaping business. After careful consideration, he decided to begin his career in real estate in 1999 with ReMax and has never looked back.
