Find the perfect Oakley real estate agent

When I left Cal Poly State University I had an education in broadcast journalism. I worked for 7 years in television as a Sports Anchor and reporter. During this time I met many interesting athletes from Barry Bonds to Jerry Rice. It was a lot of fun but I knew it was going to require a lot of moving from City to city as I worked my way up the ladder. I made the decision with my wife, Jen that we would move home to the Bay Area shortly after we started our family in 2004. When I made the decision to get into a different career I knew I had excellent listening skills. When Real Estate was suggested to me as a new career path I did not believe I had the skills to "sell" people anything. It was apparent many people I spoke with had been burned by a fast-talking real estate agent. Before I stepped foot in a real estate office or wrote my first contract I decided I would spend my time taking care of people and exceeding their expectations. My success comes from my clients referring me to their friends and family members. This can be a tough business but when you know you are making a positive impact on people and their families it's invigorating. We are helping more people than ever, even in an ever-changing market. And we're having fun doing it. We are here to serve you with all your real estate needs, whether it's buying, selling, or investing in real estate. This is how I built my business from the very beginning and how we will continue to build our business into the future.

ABOUT MY REAL ESTATE CAREER My involvement in the real estate industry began in 1979. I started in my real estate career, straight out of high school, in Southern California. I was offered an opportunity while employed with a new home builder, to throw my hat into the ring as a New Home Sales Person. I relocated to the Northern California area in the early 1980’s. At the end of my New Home Sales Career, I had spent nearly 20 years selling new homes and condo’s for publicly traded builders all over Northern California. It was highly suggested that I accept a position in a senior management position with the builder I worked with at the time, Richmond American Homes. Long story short, I subsequently held positions as Director of Sales and Marketing for Richmond American Homes and KB Home, both in the Bay Area. I was then lured away to take a position at Meritage Homes as VP of Sales and Marketing for the Bay Area. after 27 years in that sector of Real Estate Development and Marketing, I voluntarily decided to take a 1 year long, self imposed sabbatical. In 2007, I brought the skills and training I learned in the corporate builder world to the Real Estate Resale sector. Real Estate is all I know. I have been with the same office for 10 years. My office is located in The Streets of Brentwood. You will see when you read the list of my past sales, that I help clients all over the Bay Area, and not just in Brentwood. In 2008, 2009 and 2010 I assisted investors in the purchase of about 100 homes at the Contra Costa Court house steps, with buying at the Foreclosure Auction. I assisted in renovating thee homes and listing the homes for resale. During this same time, and extending to 2011, I helped about 125 Sellers move on with their lives by negotiating the Short Sales on their homes, so they could start rebuilding their lives. Many of these Seller’s have become my Buyer clients in the past 10 years. My positive attitude and dedication to customer satisfaction, assisted in all the above builders in maintaining their positions in the top 10 builders in the Bay Area, as voted by the home buyers. I have close to 40 years of experience in all aspects of residential real estate sales and marketing. PROFESSIONAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS Prior to moving into the resale end of Real Estate Resale I was recipient of the Platinum Award from the National Sales and Marketing Council for assisting and managing residential escrows totaling 176 million dollars of real estate in a single year. I was awarded the Top 5% -10% Producer Presidents Award in 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2013, 2012, 2011 and 2010. Currently, out of over 4000 Intero agents nationwide. Approximately 70% of my business is from referrals from previous clients. I truly feel that “Experience Matters”. I have been involved in thousands of transactions. Nothing can replace the experience one learns from the shear volume of transactions I have been a part of. ABOUT ME PERSONALLY I moved to Brentwood in 1999, after 18 years as a resident of San Francisco. I have lived in the same home since 1999, and been with the same Real Estate team since 2007. I have had the same assistant since 2007. I have been a mom to a family of French Bulldogs for 18 years. I think what I am saying is, I am really consistent. I spend quite a bit of time working on keeping my mind and body healthy and fresh. I am happy to say many of my clients, have become my dear friends. I invite you to read my testimonial section, to see what my clients are saying about their experience with me. My positive attitude and dedication to customer satisfaction, assisted in all the above builders in maintaining their positions in the top 10 builders in the Bay Area, as voted by the home buyers. My many years of experience in all aspects of residential real estate sales have assisted both Buyers and Sellers with negotiating a seamless transaction.

I have been licensed since 2005! I love helping people navigate thru major financial purchases and sales trying to keep the process simple and as stress free as possible. I am a straight shooter, I pride myself in my direct, get it done attitude and find that most of the time, my clients become friends long after a transaction is done. I've been at this long enough and have been successful enough to be having repeat clients and many referrals which makes me overjoyed to know that I am a trusted financial adviser. I look forward to answering any questions you might have too. My consultations are always free and 100% confidential.
