After decades in real estate and an abundance of production awards, I still pride myself on customer service; I genuinely care about my clients. From strategizing with Sellers on pricing their home to obtain the highest value to finding the ideal property for Buyers that's both sustainable and within their budget, this is how I achieve your goals in today’s competitive market.
I have a proven and reliable network of local professionals to assist you in selling or purchasing your property: lenders, property inspectors, escrow and title, contractors, tradespeople, stagers, house cleaners, landscapers, architects, and the list goes on and on.
With established, professional networking relationships I have built with my fellow Realtors®, specialized real estate search, and communication platforms, I work diligently in finding a suitable home that fits your needs. I offer professional photography and videography showcasing when listing your home, with virtual and enhanced drone tours, print, and online marketing systems with a strong social media and digital presence. I have also aligned myself with a progressive real estate company and the team of professionals at Vanguard Properties, which shares my philosophy of “forward-thinking real estate”.
I started selling real estate in my twenties, and live with my wife, Elaine (who is also my real estate partner) on a three-acre ranch in west Petaluma. I was born and raised in Petaluma and met Elaine in high school. We also raised our family here and have seen Petaluma grow from a sleepy agricultural community known as the “Egg Basket of the World” for its bustling egg industry in days past to an acclaimed area of regional wines, world-class beers and ales, award-winning olive oils and artisan cheeses that are served in some of the finest restaurants in the nation. Despite all the changes, Petaluma remains a town known for its farm-to-table fine dining, rolling hills, open space, and family atmosphere.
Elaine and I have a plethora of impressive real estate designations, awards, and community plaques we have received over the years. However, the accomplishments that mean the most to us are how we helped people and the lasting impression we made on them and their lives. Elaine and I have built personal relationships in our career in the community in which we live and volunteer, which are more valuable to us than any award. But, if you want the trophy list, we are happy to provide it.”
