I specialize in helping investors buy and sell industrial and commercial properties. I am a Realtor with 20 years of experience, passionate about my work, and constantly honing my skills to keep up with today’s fast-paced market. My career has an unusual origin, one stemming from the need to communicate. It all started when a family friend was purchasing their first home. The buyers spoke Russian—and since I am fluent in both Russian and Ukrainian, I was able to serve as a translator throughout the home buying process. This sparked my passion for real estate. I went on to earn my real estate license in 2002, and have been seizing opportunities ever since. I have built a business from scratch, and am experienced as both a buyer’s and seller’s agent, specializing in commercial properties and investments. I am also experienced in industrial real estate, developments, land acquisition for multi families and hotels, HUD properties, 1031 exchanges, REOs, short sales, bulk properties, and more. I frequently pursue certifications and designations to expand my knowledge base. Today, I hold the following certifications and designations: Real Estate Negotiation Expert (RENE)—This certification is awarded to real estate professionals seeking to sharpen their negotiation skills. In earning this certification, REALTORS® learn tips and tools needed to skillfully advocate for clients. Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR®)—A certification for real estate buyer agents who focus on working directly with buyer-clients throughout the home buying process. Certified International Property Specialist (CIPS)—Awarded by the National Association of REALTORS®, this certification is for REALTORS® from the US and abroad who have completed the CIPS program and gained the skills needed to grow and develop their international real estate business. NAR’s GREEN Designation—This designation is reserved for agents who have demonstrated their knowledge of energy efficiency and sustainability in real estate. Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist (CLHMS)—This designation assures affluent buyers and sellers that real estate professionals have the knowledge, experience, and unique skills to meet their needs. Master Certified Negotiation Expert (MCNE)—This certification is reserved for agents who have mastered various negotiation skills in order to better navigate real estate transactions. CCIM: 101 Financial Analysis for Investment Commercial Real Estate. 102: Market Analysis for Commercial Investment Real Estate 103: User Decision Analysis for Commercial Investment Real Estate

I own a handful of rental units and 4 flips and have experience in residential infill rezoning. I am a licensed agent specializing in Senior housing transitions, Probate, Divorce sales, value add investors, SFR Portfolio liquidation, and 1031 exchanges. In addition to my experience in residential brokerage, I am an active real estate investor and developer. I work on residential development projects in Folsom, Auburn, and Foresthill, CA. My experience in residential rehab provides my clients with an added dimension of service. I am a valuable resource in analyzing investment opportunities as my experience enables me to see values that others overlook and to work with architects, engineers, and builders to monetize them. This perspective can be useful to clients as they decide whether to purchase, improve, or sell one of their most important assets. I pride myself in finding deals for my buyers that are off-market and at a discount while I strive to bring my sellers top dollar as quickly as possible. It is not uncommon for my buyers to purchase for tens of thousands under the appraisal or get a premium property at the standard market comparable sales. I pay extremely close attention to local politics and land use so my clients can be out in front of the path of progress surrounding new anchor projects and developments. I hold a BA from the University of Tennessee in Psychology with focused studies on consumer behavior. I am is widely recognized as one of the best-trained negotiators in the business with an extensive continuing education in Negotiation Mastery from Harvard Business School Online and The Black Swan Group. I am the proud father of two wonderful kids who live in El Dorado Hills. I am a native Sacramentan that attended Jesuit High School and Sacramento City College before earning a baseball scholarship to the University of Tennessee. I love introducing those new to the area to its various neighborhoods and niches. I have lived all over the Sacramento Metro area. In my spare time, I am a rabid college sports fan (GO VOLS!), youth sports coach, fledgling golfer, architecture buff and aspiring art collector. When not doing that... I mostly enjoy spending time with friends and family in Carmel or Truckee.
