Changing the World... Two Homes at a Time
Changing the World...
I am a committed Christian that desires to change the world through my career in real estate. My professional motto, "Changing the world...two homes at a time," comes from my commitment to donate my entire net commission from each transaction to fund and build homes for the working poor just south of Ensenada, Mexico. In April of 2024 we funded and built our 23rd and 24th home in Baja!
To transform the lives of those in Baja, I understand that I must be an exceptional agent who provides my clients with a fantastic home selling and/or buying experience from start to finish. I bring to real estate a lifetime of business, finance, and construction experience to help my clients successfully navigate the intricacies of the buying and selling process. I also have extensive personal experience in investment real estate and the 1031 exchange process. In addition, I have actively strived to improve my knowledge and skill set as a realtor, earning the Accredited Buyer's Representative designation and Senior Real Estate Specialist designation for working with those 50+.
However, more important than my experience, I promise to represent my clients with the highest degree of integrity, passion and commitment. As your agent, you can count on me to always have your best interest at heart!
Let's work together to change the world!
SOLD! Changing the world has begun! (Home of Hope #1)
My first home as a new realtor sold in March of 2021. We set the price aggressively at $349,500. We felt like this was a good price, but maybe a little high. We ended up selling it for $371,000. Praise God!
I want to thank Gary Maze for trusting me with his investment. I worked really hard to help prepare the house, stage it, and take care of all the details. Then, I believe I negotiated well, getting several buyers to bid against themselves, driving the price up. It paid off!!! Thank you to the Maze family for all your hard work preparing the house. It looked great! I also want to think my awesome partner in ministry, Kendel Rodriquez. He took fabulous pictures and made a fantastic video, capturing all the beauty of the house. He has partnered with me to help fund homes in Mexico as a ministry. His work is superb!
On March 28, I led a 6-day mission trip to build the home for the Ayala Family, our first of 8 homes that year using the proceeds from my real estate transactions. Our energetic team ran a vacation Bible school, worked with women, delivered food & prayed for people, and completed the home build in just 3 days. Typically, our teams take four days to build a home, but several team members had to return a day early so we finished the house faster than normal. We dedicated the house and gave the keys on Wednesday, March 31. Then, on Thursday, April 1 the Maze home, my first real estate transaction, transferred title. Had we built at our normal speed, it would have been a story book finish with both houses exchanging keys on the exact same day. Nevertheless, the ministry of "changing the world...two homes at a time" was off to an exceptional start.
On all of our trips, the sellers and buyers are invited to come help build the home, and give the keys to the family. Want to be part of a build? Contact me!!!
That's me, even more excited than normal, as the team starts the very first home build funded by my real estate career.
