1985
The year we started in real estate. With limited funds we worked a deal with some seller financing and bought a fixer-upper. After renovations, we sold it a year later at a nice profit. With the funds, we bought another fixer upper, and a townhouse to live in.

1987
We continued to do fixer upper projects and became licensed real estate agents to represent ourselves. Some of the contractors we hired, and friends, asked if we could help them buy a home. So we did that too, and really liked it.
1988
The year we joined the largest real estate firm in California and were the youngest among 55 agents in our local office.
1989
The year we did our first major remodel, converting an 1,100 square foot one-story home into a 2,700 square foot two-story. After that, we continued to build homes on the side, including an eight home subdivision.

1991
Our third year as Realtors and were honored to receive the Presidents Silver award – top 3% in California for successful homes sales.

1995
We started our own real estate brokerage. We taught and managed real estate agents, while representing clients full time on their real estate needs.
1998
Our busiest year yet. We never had the desire to sell the most homes, but in 1998 it happened. We sold 114 homes, tops in the Bay Area per the San Francisco Business Times.
1999
The Associated Press gave us credit for doing the first online real estate transactions. We created an online program to streamline the process of buying and selling homes. With the volume of home sales we were doing, we needed to be more efficient.
2001
This was a year of appearances on Channel 2’s Morning Show and several TV interviews. They were live and kind of nerve racking, but it was fun talking about real estate and the trends of the time.

2005
This was ten years after opening our brokerage. We had 4 offices, 60 agents and a mortgage company.
2009
Now in our brokerage’s fifteenth year, we had added a property management company and started offering incentives to our agents for working from home.
2019
After two decades owning and operating our own real estate brokerage, we joined Remax Accord. We stepped away from the day to day agent management and brokerage operations so we could devote more time to clients.
2021
Our 2nd full year with Remax, and we were honored to be recognized in the company’s top 10 among over 400 Realtors, and in the top 100 nationwide.
2025
This marked our 40th year in real estate. We celebrated by going to Maui with our family, bringing back memories of our first trip to the island in 1988.

Beyond Real Estate
We are Bay Area natives, undergrads at Saint Mary’s College. We live in Danville and are fortunate to be just a mile from our daughter, her husband and grandchildren.
We enjoy playing pickleball and still renovate homes. Helping the homeless has been something we’ve done for years, the Children’s Miracle Network is another.
