A reputation for excellence is an invaluable asset that is never gained cheaply. In my 30 years in real estate I believe I have earned my reputation — for integrity, professionalism, knowledge, attention to detail, and sensitivity — through hard work and consistent performance. I've earned it the hard way, and in the only way that matters. Performance
Integrity, Experience, Attention to Detail--
Expert Service Since 1972
What does "performance" mean? You tell me. Tell me what you expect and what you want, because I haven't performed until you are satisfied. I'm proud of the relationships I've developed with my clients over the years: They've told me what "performance" is, and I have listened. Making It Happen
But the past doesn't mean much without a program for applying what it has taught to you today. I expect to continue to succeed for my clients because of:My Team —
I have learned the importance of maintaining a high level of service, so I personally employ a full-time Marketing Manager and a full-time Escrow Manager. They along with my Listing Coordinator, Home Staging Specialist, Telemarketing Specialist and Office Staff work closely with me and my clients to make sure that every detail of each transaction is clearly understood, closely monitored, and carefully completed.My Use of Technology —
I have learned the value of time, so I use the latest information management technology in every aspect of my business; not because it's fashionable, but because it's effective.My "Tool Kit" —
I have learned that some of what I do is a craft so, I like many good craftsman have customized my tools.For sellers I have a finely tuned marketing plan and proven techniques for arriving at the best possible price. For buyers I find the homes that you want to see, and I show you just those homes.
My Knowledge of the Area —
I have learned the value of "knowing the territory." I was raised in Contra Costa County. I have lived nearly all of my life in this area, and I have watched neighborhoods grow. and change.I know the "feel" of those neighborhoods, whether they're quiet or noisy, whether they're growing or not, how good the schools are. Growing up in an area gives you a kind of intimacy with it that I don't think you can get in any other way.
Why Me?
Simply put, I like what I do and I'm good at it. I have the experience, I have the tools, and I have the talent to help you:
Buy the home you've always wanted
Sell the home you have outgrown
Smooth your corporate relocation
Manage your tax-deferred exchange
I am proud to be an active member of the Contra Costa Association of Realtors and the National Association of Realtors. Education is an important part of my success. I consistently take higher education courses to sharpen my skills in marketing, appraisal, consulting, and negotiating. I am also proud to have earned the professional designation Certified Residential Specialist.
The Certified Residential Specialist (CRS) is a professional designation which has been earned by only 3% of all Realtors. A CRS brings special qualifications to your needs:
Successful completion of advanced courses in listing, selling, investment, taxes and more.
A history of demonstrated sales performance through the documented execution of residential sales transactions. What this means is that when you work with a CRS, you are working with someone who is more connected, more knowledgeable and more experienced.
I want to be your real estate broker. You could pay the same commission to an agent without my knowledge, my experience, and my careful, sensitive approach....but why would you want to?
