A New Mexico native, my first home was an adobe house with dirt floors. I didn't even own a pair of shoes until first grade. Now I wear out plenty of shoes showing homes all over Manhattan.

So how did my surreal road to real estate come to pass? Arriving in the Big Apple in 1968, I found it amusing to see "Your Very Own Piece of Paradise in Rio Rancho, New Mexico" posters plastered all over the subway cars. Meanwhile, the only housing I could find in NY was a five-story walk-up with a bathtub in the kitchen! In the early seventies, buying a co-op instead of renting emerged as an innovative concept. Yet many of us weren't convinced. We just couldn't fathom paying both a mortgage and a maintenance payment. We "lived for today" while the opportunity to buy a classic six-room apartment on West End Avenue for a $30,000 or less just passed us by.

Twenty Five years ago, with a young son to raise, I put my free-spirited sensibilities aside and made real estate my career. Having witnessed the diverse history of New York real estate, gave me the insight needed for understanding changing markets. I diligently acquired a thorough knowledge of the co-op and condo boards, the physical condition of the buildings plus the apartment layouts and their exposures. What my clients refer to as "a natural instinct for timing" is just being fully informed at all times and is why I can facilitate a meeting of the minds under any market conditions.

Ultimately, the key to my success is what I call "people wisdom...understanding (and caring) about the process that goes into the important life decision of buying or selling one's home. I credit my negotiating skills to maintaining a direct and honest communication with my clients. Fully committing my time to serve your individual goals, and having the perseverance to follow through makes a difference to a seller trying to get the best value for your home or a buyer securing your dream home in a highly competitive market. As a result, my client base continues to grow from happy buyers who eventually became sellers, many of whom I've brokered two, three, or more transactions.

My son has grown into a fine individual and is a working actor, as a main character on HBO's Entourage! I continue to take great pride in my work as a real estate broker with roots in the soil, a mind for business, and your interests at heart.
