His experience as a Product Manager in High-Tech directly relates to Real Estate planning while orchestrating each stage of the transaction toward a successful completion in the purchase or sale of a home.
Don’s work style is to offer pertinent data and guidance based on his years of demonstrated experience, allowing first-time and seasoned buyers and sellers to make informed decisions based on their circumstances. Don uses proven skills and strategies specializing in ‘regular’ sales & purchases, short sales, foreclosures, REO's, and relocation.
Don is highly recommended by his family, friends, and colleagues in the real estate field. In his free time, Don enjoys practicing piano and guitar, going to concerts as well as biking and snow skiing.
To Don, a transaction is considered successful if it meets or exceeds the client's expectations and produces a "Win-Win" outcome for all parties.
