I work with Coldwell Banker, a worldwide company with over 100 years’ experience in the real estate market. Coldwell Banker has consistently been voted as one of the most ethical real estate companies in the country and has unparalleled marketing tools. Its leading-edge capabilities include unmatched data mining to find you the right home as a buyer; and for sellers, concierge-based website design, professional photography, social media exposure, and much more.
Through my diverse set of career experiences, I have found that building relationships, being a good listener, and having great conversation skills, are all paramount in successful sales. I have an innate ability to find a common denominator with anyone I interact with and am immediately able to open up a line of communication. My military background (my own and my father’s) has taught me that respect for all people, politeness, and punctuality are essential in getting a task done well. I have stellar negotiation skills, having been involved in hundreds of transactions over the years. I’m proud to note that the respect, trust, and confidence I gain through relationship building with my clients has led to long-term friendships with many of them, who have been happy to work with me repeatedly and to refer me to their friends.
I am a graduate of the University of Oregon (Go Ducks!), where I was a Division I baseball player, after which I played baseball professionally in Italy for 3 years. I’m also a military veteran (US Airforce Special Forces Pararescue). Although you can’t tell from my accent, I was born in London, England, but spent most of my life in the Portland area. I moved to Los Angeles 4 years ago, to the delightful neighborhood of Carthay Square. Its alleys have been a treasure trove of finds for my hobby of restoring discarded old furniture here in my garage. I call it Alley Cat furniture, and it’s been a lot of fun during the lockdown. (Please feel free to let me know if you spot something with potential!)
When it’s time to buy or sell your home, let’s work together. Even if you’re just at the ‘thinking about it’ stage and have any questions, please reach out to me.
