Immediately following graduation Tim worked at two local auto dealerships in the greater Seattle area for 3 ½ years beginning in 1986. Tim and his father open their first pre-owned auto dealership in the Green Lake area in 1989. That grew to 3 dealerships in a short amount of time. Following this, they opened what was one of the first pre-owned super stores in the Seattle area that offered a much larger selection than the majority of their competitors. In 1994 they purchased a Pontiac-GMC new car franchise in Lynnwood, WA, known as Duffy Pontiac-GMC. Shortly following this, they purchased a Nissan Franchise in Seattle, known as Duffy Nissan. 3 ½ years later these two dealerships were both sold and Tim licensed himself as an independent auto broker.
