Agent
I am British and have lived in Orange County for 30 years. I was CEO of a famous British Franchising company which took me to many countries, and I came to the USA to run an operation here. I entered the Real Estate profession at the same time as my wife and I founded an animal rescue, Modjeska Ranch Rescue, which has since rehomed over 8000 homeless cats, dogs and horses. I bring to my clients a professional, and if necessary, an analytical approach to what can be a very confusing process for buyers and sellers. Having said that I also bring a sense of value, a sense of honor, and sometimes a British sense of humor! Although I do the majority of my work in Orange County with residential buyers, I have also identified properties for clients in LA, Glendale, Pasadena, Temecula, and Riverside, as well as worked with investors from overseas wanting to find properties that will provide good cash-flow and capital growth. I am married to an American, and have 3 daughters. I live in Modjeska Canyon, where the animal rescue is based. I realize a real estate transaction can be life changing for my client. My job is to make sure that change is a good one!
