I earned a BBA in Accounting from the
I earned my Texas Real Estate Salesman’s License in May of 1982 and my Texas Real Estate Brokers License in December of 1984.
I worked briefly with JB Goodwin Realtors before joining RE/MAX del Norte in 1982.
From 1984 to 1987 I held several different positions in the real estate industry. Besides working with another RE/MAX office, I worked as an on-site sales representative for a local home- builder. I also owned and operated a residential property management company.
In 1988 I joined RE/MAX Associates and worked there for twelve years. I opened my own office, RE/MAX Advantage, in August of 2000. In January of 2003 I merged my office with another family of 5 RE/MAX North offices. In 2006 I sold my interest in RE/MAX North and joined RE/MAX Associates in Stone Oak.
In my career it has been my pleasure and honor to help hundreds of families buy and sell their homes. I have closed over 1,500 sales in my 26+-year career. Many of those have been a family member or friend of another client. In 1995 I made the commitment to work “By Referral Only”. This commitment means that I will rely on references from my clients. Consequently, I work even harder to gain my client’s trust. If I do a great job for my client, they will use me again and refer others with confidence, knowing that their friends and loved ones are getting the best service and counsel.
As a result of this commitment I have built a business on the fundamentals of integrity, knowledge, and experience and customer service. I have an exceptional staff that shares my vision and understands the value of a happy customer. We are committed to working with great clients who trust us and appreciate that level of service and support that we offer. If we exceed our client’s expectations they will continue to bless our business.
In order to distinguish myself from my peers I have worked very hard and invested a great deal time in continuing education far beyond what is required by the state. I currently hold the following designations recognized by the National Association of Realtors.
Certified Residential Specialist: Less than 1% of all the real estate agents in the nation hold this designation. The CRS designation requires a body of work over several years as well as specialized classes. There are fewer than 100 CRS designees in
Certified Residential Broker: This designation is specifically for owners and managers of Real Estate offices. The classes focus on profitability, management, risk and other aspects of owning an office. There are fewer than 20 CRB designees in
Accredited Buyer Representative (Manager): The ABR and ABRM designations are for those agents who represent buyers and for managers who oversee agents. Classes focus on agency, relocation, services and issues related specifically for buyers. This information has been very helpful in building my relocation practice and improving the services we offer to buyers. It has also been helpful representing sellers because I have enhanced my negotiation skills and have the insight to protect my clients. There are only 150 ABR designees and only 3 ABRM designees in
Certified Commercial Investment Member: The CCIM designation is considered the PhD of Real Estate. This designation requires several classes, and written demonstration reports as well as a comprehensive exam. There are only 50 CCIMs in
Certified Relocation Professional: The CRP is one of the most difficult and time-consuming designations to acquire. The CRP focuses on the needs on relocation candidates as buyers and sellers with special attention paid to the value of properties and the specific needs of a transferred employee and their family. There are only 10 CRPs in
Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist: The CLHMS designation is awarded to agents who distinguish themselves in the Luxury Home Market.
Of the approximately 7,500 members of the San Antonio Board of Realtors, I am the only person that holds this combination of designations. However, these designations are only a part of my continuing education. Each year I attend sales and marketing seminars across the country to expand my body of knowledge and to build my network of like-minded agents. I want to continue to improve my skills and build my practice.
