I am available, preferably by introduction, to provide select types of client services. I have an existing book of business with a number of closely held private partnerships - this steady foundation allows me to choose to work only with clients I respect and in situations where I am proud that I add value.
My independent brokerage allows me to offer different compensation structures unavailable to brokers who do not own their firms.
Experience: I have 30 years experience in Property Ownership, Development, Management, and Leasing for all classes of real estate.
Commercial Real Estate Brokerage and Oversight Experience

Office Building Leases of suites, floors in high-rises as well as office building sales to owner-users
-
Industrial Building Sales and Leasing
-
Retail Property Sales and Leasing from freeway frontage to Malls to Main-street Boutiques
-
Special use properties like Schools and Gas Stations
Residential Real Estate Brokerage Experience
-
Luxury Homes, especially where I grew up in or live now. Beverly Hills, Marina Del Rey/Venice, and Malibu.
-
Moderate and Low income apartments and rental homes - I have owned and know these types of properties from the time I spent cutting my teeth on them in my first 10 years out of Berkeley.
-
Vacation homes and rentals - These are viable options for investors to get their feet wet or to park money when good quality investment properties are overpriced or unavailable.
My Past Client Types:
-
Local Governments: I served been the sole representative in site acquisition for the County of Marin, helping them located multiple Library and Health and Human Service branch locations
-
Corporate Operations: Relocated and re-leased office floors for fortune 500 companies, and national chains.
-
FDIC and Banks: liquidation sales of repossessed properties
-
Entrepreneurial Business Owners: both buying and leasing their business locations - from building contractors to motorcycle dealers to insurance brokers to tech company owners
-
Highly Experienced Real Estate Investors: finding buildings with the best intrinsics for their investment partnerships to acquire - I am most flattered when the professionals call me to represent them - they understand the role a broker adds (like a good attorney will never have himself as a client) but they also have an enormous list from which to call from.
Ad-hoc Property Management Services
-
Event-based assistance and professional oversight assistance services (as described further in it’s own section)
-
I would like to grow this area of my daily efforts in ways that stretch and leverage my life-experience to the edges of the traditional real estate manager stewardship role.
My Enthusiasm:
I enjoy situations that draw upon my multi-faceted experience.
Ultimately, my satisfaction is as important to me as the money that I earn; My satisfaction is the greatest when my experience-derived input enhances value.
