ABOUT

Real Estate Broker | 24 Years of Excellence in San Diego County I'm not just another agent—I'm a licensed Real Estate Broker, the highest level of professional expertise in real estate. Think of me as having the equivalent of a law degree in real estate transactions, negotiations, and strategy—without ever needing to take the bar. With 10x the education, licensing, and hands-on experience compared to the average agent, I bring unmatched depth to every deal. Over 24 years, I've facilitated 500+ transactions totaling more than $300 million in volume, consistently delivering exceptional results for buyers, sellers, investors, and developers. My expertise covers: Residential (first-time buyers, luxury homes, VA loans for our elite armed forces) Investment properties (fix & flips, rental portfolios, short-term rentals) Commercial, land development, ADUs, and value-add projects I practice what I preach: I personally own and manage multiple rental properties, short-term rentals, and flips—leveraging real estate to build lasting wealth, just as I've coached hundreds of clients (now friends) to do the same. Why Choose a Broker Like Me? Superior Knowledge & Independence: Brokers require significantly more education & experience. Local Market Mastery: Deep, insider knowledge of San Diego County for precise pricing, powerful marketing, and winning negotiations. Client-Centric & Transparent: I prioritize your goals with personalized guidance, integrity, and long-term relationships. Extensive Network: Vast contacts with top vendors, resources, and professionals that directly save you time and money.
