Background & Career Highlights

My real estate and construction career began in 1978, starting as an investor and later expanding into brokerage, new construction, mortgage brokerage, and residential design. Over the years, I have:

• Rehabbed more homes and apartments in Palm Beach County than any other investor of my era

• Set a record with a 21‑day single‑family home build

• Personally built homes from raw land to Certificate of Occupancy — often with little or no help

• Pioneered simultaneous closings for property acquisition

• Completed numerous highest‑and‑best‑use conversions

• Advised thousands of homeowners, investors, contractors, and aspiring business owners across Florida and Georgia

These experiences shaped my ability to diagnose complex issues quickly, communicate clearly, and guide clients toward practical, defensible solutions.

Today, I work full‑time as a construction and real estate consultant, offering clients unmatched insight drawn from decades of hands‑on experience and proven results.
