Professional Philosophy

“Growing up in the Half Moon Bay area, my father was the town doctor. He made house calls, delivered babies and cared deeply about what was happening in the lives of his friends and patients. In my Real Estate practice, I learn all I can about what is happening in the lives of my friends and clients before I suggest what opportunity they might consider. Like my father, I feel I must be honest and accurate with people so that they can best make the important decisions in their lives."

"Knowing the inventory is the key to success in Coastside Real Estate, so I never miss touring properties. Going beyond what is expected to help my clients has become my trademark. “Pulling a grant”, is what my peers call the extra care that I provide. From helping my clients come to terms with the passing of a loved one or getting our hands dirty while preparing a home for sale; it is all part of working together to reach a goal. Sometimes, helping someone decide not to buy or sell, is the best decision of all.
