Experience - important not just as a salesperson but in all facets of the Real Estate industry.  Mine started with double majors in both Marketing and Economics from San Jose State University.  From there I worked in banking for over 11 years gaining experience as a Real Estate development lender and later as a mortgage lender.  For over 27 years I have immersed myself in real estate acquisitions/dispositions and management of investment properties in the Bay Area as well as out of state.  I have bought  and sold property in California, Florida, Texas and Nevada.  I have owned both Commercial and Multifamily Real Estate which gives me intimate knowledge as an "owner" not just a salesperson.  I have residential home development experience  which has given me extensive knowledge in the fields of construction and design.  My ability to inspect properties and estimate repair costs in a strong asset and well above average in the industry.  Equally important is my 27 years of Real Estate sales and marketing experience working with famed companies such as Alain Pinel, Better Homes and Garden and now my best move yet with Keller Williams Bay Area Estates.  This means that whether you are selling, buying or investing, I have the knowledge and expertise to help you with all your Real Estate Needs!
