WORK WITH ME

A Simple Premise

My real estate practice is guided by a simple premise. I always do what is right for the client.

If you are considering a sale and you should consider a remodel instead, I will communicate that and explain why. If you are buying a house that will be problematic to sell in 5 years, then I will guide you to purchase a salable property with good bones and a healthy appreciation possibility. I have to tell you the truth even if it is not what you want to hear. I can’t live with myself if I don’t. I simply provide the same level of service to all clients because I believe in serving the client’s needs no matter what the price, timing, or location.

Top Producing Team

I am part of a top producing team called JPAR® Iron Horse Real Estate, based in Pleasanton, CA. Our team truly operates as a concierge business – first class service, with style, professionalism, and deep market knowledge. You can rest assured that you will be working solely with me, but I have an experienced support team behind me.

Working Style

My hallmarks are thorough communication (about everything you need to know), a calm demeanor, and a commitment to service. I also coordinate, manage and problem solve with transparency and confidentiality. I look forward to helping make your next move!

5 reasons you should work with me!

It’s good to question who you’re taking on this journey with you.

  1. If you are looking for an agent that you trust, respect, like, and who will always tell you the truth, (not just what you want to hear), then I am your guy.
  2. If you are looking for an agent who has lived and worked in the community, and who has raised his kids here, then that would be me. I truly know the schools, recreation, doctors, restaurants, and transportation options here in the East Bay.
  3. If you are looking for someone who has a team of “tried and true” vendors behind him, that is me.
  4. If you want to hire a down-to-earth, patient, and authentic person, that is me.
  5. And 5th, if you want to enjoy the process as we go through it, hire me! I love to make people laugh and can always find humor in the challenges.

Let’s talk and see if we are a match.

I look forward to hearing about your goals, dreams, and the next stage in your life.
