Rick, a native of East Hampton, has experienced the continuous changes in the local area and maintains that this is still "a most wonderful place to call home."
Born to a local family that was involved in the building business, Rick grew up learning what real estate and development was about, but it was not until 5 years ago that he chose it as his profession.
After graduating from East Hampton High School, where he dated his wife, Kim, Rick went to college at University of South Florida with a major in Education. Upon graduation, he returned to his roots, joined the East Hampton Village Police Department, where he served 20 years, retiring as Police Sergeant.
Retired from the police force enable Rick to get into what was always in his blood- the business of development and real estate. While developing his own properties Rick became a licensed sales associate originally with the former Allan M. Schneider firm before moving to Town & Country Real Estate. Being a local, Rick felt the locally owned and operate real estate company was the best fit for him. It is here at Town and Country Real Estate that The Slater Team, comprised of Rick, his wife Kim and Jason Keyes, was formed.
Rick resides in Amagansett with his wife and four girls. He is active in the Amagansett community, where he sat on the Board of Education for 8 years, as well as maintains all his involvement in the hamlet of East Hampton.
