I am a full-time, full-service broker and have been dedicated to assisting buyers and sellers for more than 30 years.  To buy or sell a home wisely you need knowledge, dedication and experience on your side. I bring you all these elements and more. 

Originally from Minnesota, I have lived in the San Francisco Bay Area for more than 40 years and began my real estate career shortly after moving here. When I represent buyers my focus is to lead them through the complex maze of negotiations, finance, disclosures, inspections, etc so they make the best buy possible. And when I represent sellers my focus is to guide them through an even more complex maze including effective planning and marketing, negotiations,  disclosures, contract clauses and other aspects so they realize the most for their properties in the least amount of time and with as little inconvenience as possible.  I am a State of California licensed real estate broker.  I am also an e-PRO Certified Realtor® And, I am a member of Bay East Association of Realtors® and a top producer for more than 30 years.
