I created a web site different from any other agents or major real estate sites. I used 30 years of first hand knowledge, working in the field and research to put together this site.

Please do to contact me to see if my experience would make us working together a good fit. Do not let your next agent be selected by random chance of a form you filled in.

The site is broken up into groups of pages on the following topics:

1. What to do if your thinking about selling.

2 Buying your first home and what you need to know to get started.

3. Location, Location, Locations across the East Bay. Community and even Neighborhood photos and information about most of Alameda County and Contra Costa County cities. Some home builders and model facts.

4. Buying, Owning and Managing rental property, taxes, regulations, rights and rules.

5. Knowledge relating to real estate; Historical things, current trends, tax loop holes, government and local assistance programs.

6. The skills I have learned to be a professional real estate agent and as property owner involve so many fields. After viewing a home I know the area where buyers will get turned off when they see your home. I also know repairs, staging, maintaining needed to create the optimal impression when your home is on the market. I help you to get the work done with the lease amount of inconveniences but get the most return for what you spend. Having been a Land lord and an agent for over 30 years and attending over 400 home inspections and understand the process of almost all the issues that have come up on each inspection because I have done so much of the repairs for myself.

Internet marketing, e mail blasts, web site lay out and photography and working the description of your home to present it in its best light with out exaggerating ( which turns folks off when promise more than what is there).

Home evaluations; I have the on line tools and the resource of 30 years first hand experience not to mention the top real-estate franchise with all their resources to draw from. It is also my job to include the correct paperwork to not only be compliant with the law and mitigate as much for my client to limit possible liability by including extra paperwork designed to disclose, explain forms and guide to get them filled out accurately.

I have experience with the following; Probate sales, independent administration, court confirmed sales, Single Family Sales, Duplexes, Triplexes, Fourplexes, Land sales, Contract of Sale, Seller Cary the loan sales, 1031 tax differed exchanges, non recourse loans, FHA loans, VA Loans, Adjustable Loans, Fixed Rate Loans, Town Homes Sales and Purchases, Condominium Purchase and Sales, Senior Mobile homes and Mobile homes in Family parks.
