Real Estate


With over 37 years of experience in residential, commercial, and industrial real estate, I bring extensive expertise in property acquisition, renovation, and development.

Throughout my career, I have played a key role as an investor, owner, or developer in more than 350 real estate transactions totaling over $500 million—not including the 20,000 lending transactions I’ve been involved in.

Over the last few years, many people have encouraged me to get more involved in retail real estate sales, believing I have a lot to offer clients. After discussing it with my family, we agreed it was the right move. I started my career in 1985 in retail sales, working with individual clients, and I’ve now come full circle—choosing to finish my career by helping individuals achieve their real estate dreams. As a result, I formed the PowerPro Team in 2024.

Since we’re just getting started in retail sales and listings, I may not yet be a multi-million-dollar retail sales agent in the traditional sense. However, my track record in high-value real estate, my involvement in over 20,000 loan transactions, and my general contracting experience set me apart. As a luxury homeowner and investor, I understand the challenges that come with buying, selling, and investing. PowerPro™ is a full-service real estate group, combining expertise in investment, development, construction, and financing to guide clients at every stage of their journey.

My focus is on helping individuals and families secure their dream homes, offering expert knowledge and a personalized approach every step of the way. Below are some highlights of my accomplishments and major real estate projects over the years.
