I may have been born with real estate in my blood. From the very beginning I had a strong desire to “own”, which led me to purchase my first home in St. Louis, MO at the age of 19. This occurred just in time to celebrate Christmas 1979 in my own home. I moved from my parents’ house directly into my new home, which was in close proximity to Lambert Airport, skipping the usual opportunity to become a renter.

Even at that early age I was fearful of making a 24 year financial commitment. I would be assuming a VA Mortgage of approximately $13,000.00! To bring those feelings back into focus, I need only to recall a realtor explaining to me at the time, that I would owe the principal, the interest, 1/12th of the taxes and 1/12th of the insurance premium each and every month. This PITI mortgage was $155.26 per month. Boy, how things have changed since. My cell phone bill easily approaches that number now!     

I had invested a $2,000.00 down-payment and by the following year this little house of mine had increased in value about $2,000.00, representing a 100% return on my little down-payment. That first experience with real estate was my motivation to enroll in classes at the local Community College, where I specialized in Real Estate law, appraisals, and sales.

In the years which followed, I found work in the construction business. This afforded me an opportunity to acquire valuable experience and to hone my skills in roofing, concrete flat-work, plumbing, windows, as well as kitchen/bath remodeling. The high costs of construction and repair services, along with my lack of funds at the time were deciding influences on my vocational and training interests. I worked, and more importantly, I learned. This soon led me to open my own construction company under the name of Construction Consultants.

Over the next twenty years of business and home ownership, I was able to acquire nearly fifty homes in St. Louis. This all gave me the experience of working through multiple mortgages, owner financing purchases, utility expansions, insurance policies, owner financed sales, and all phases of home maintenance and improvements. As a young man I always strove for excellence and developed my hands-on approach, working on-site with the various tradesmen, never expecting them to do something that I would not, or had not done.

I came to Cape Coral FL and first purchased in 1999.  I initially found work as a mortgage broker with Florida Mortgage Trust, and continued to buy more real estate whenever I saw the opportunity.

Entering the years after 2006, I was working on exit strategies and asset preservation. Bringing all the real estate skills and knowledge I’d learned I entered into the listing and sales of homes in the local area.

Now well versed and experienced, I am grateful for the trust of repeat business and referrals which bring me a large volume of business today. Being engaged in teamwork and education in a continually evolving field I can enjoy the rewards of dedication and respect for professional colleagues and customers alike.
