If you are a first time home buyer come to me and we will work out how to get the most for your dollar.  I will stand by your side and not only help you find your dream home but I will also help you plan for the future to get the most for your dollar should you want to sell your house at a later date. Knowing what investors are looking for in houses and what their goals are, is important and because I grew up with the real estate business I understand that.  I have seen the ups and downs of the business as well as the pitfalls and successes.  My father started with Walker and Lee in the Newport Beach area in 1961, became very successful at a young age.  He moved to Santa Barbara where he built a very profitable business.  Starting at a very young age my father took me everywhere with him and because of these experiences I have learned to appreciate all of the incredible income and tax benefits of selling, buying and owning real estate.
