10 Pro Tips for a Smooth Home Move
The process of buying a new home can be both exhilarating and exhausting. But the journey doesn’t stop when you close on your property. On the contrary, you still have quite a bit to...
As a teen growing up in Southern California I was mentored and inspired by an adult who was a Realtor for Century 21 La Palma. Even as a teen I knew I was different. I had an entrepreneurial spirit about me. I had two paper routes for the Anaheim Bulletin, went door to door selling newspapers, and helped other Realtors in pass out marketing materials in a large town house community. It became crystal clear to me that as an adult I would be a Real Estate Professional just like my mentor.
In 1989 I moved from Southern California to Washington. I have been a resident of Snohomish County since that time. My wife and I live with two crazy cats. All three of our children have grown and moved out. They are now building families of their own.
The pages of life have turned. Some pages have been filled with joy and happiness. Some have been filled with tears and regret. That is how a good life goes. Overall, the joy and happiness far outweighs any tears or regret.
My last chapter called "work life" is complete. I have begun this new chapter titled "dream life." This is the chapter that allows me the space to be who I was always meant to be… a successful real estate professional who is assisting others to create their chapter of "wealth" through home ownership and real estate investments.
The good things that I learned in my "work life" chapter were personal leadership, team building and team work, accountability, and building good relationships. These strengths will be a solid benefit to you as we work together for your chapter titled "wealth."
It is my absolute mission to serve you and all of your real estate needs, wants, dreams, and goals through hard work, integrity, and care. Let me go to work for you to craft and create that wealth through real estate ownership.
