My Story-

I was born in Mexico to a poor family where I had six brothers and two sisters.  Striving for a better life I came to the United States when I was 17 years old and after a few years got married.

My parents taught me to always be honest and above all to never compromise my integrity.  We did not have much in the way of possessions, but were rich in our heritage and our values.  It is my desire to continue my father’s legacy of integrity and respect of his peers in my real estate career.

My Accomplishments-

I completed a course in English as a Second Language and through night school courses obtained my High School diploma by completing my GED.  I later studied to become a car mechanic and received my certificate in 1987.  Feeling the desire to grow my knowledge and better my life, I pursued a commercial driver’s license in 1988 and worked as a truck driver and boom operator.  The company I worked for was very happy with my performance, but I yet again strived for more in life.

In search of a better quality of life for me and my family I took a job in construction.  During this time I went to college to study real estate and worked my way up to Construction Foreman.  In 2004 I finished my real estate classes, took the real estate exam and successfully passed and received my real estate agent’s license.  Additionally, in 2005 I was sworn in as a Notary Public for the State of California.

My Real Estate Career-

For several years I worked as a loan agent assisting renters in pursing the dream of owning a home.  I held numerous seminars at apartment complexes as well as at community centers and churches throughout the Napa Valley on the different options available in loans. 

After many successful years as a loan agent I was ready re-focus my efforts in real estate by moving into a real estate sales career specializing in single-family residential.  I met Burt Polson, broker of ACRES Real Estate Services through a member of my family who was a past client of his.  After seeing my drive to always grow and pursue a better life as well as my high level of integrity, Burt brought me in as a residential agent.

My current focus is to help the homeowners who have been affected by the sub-prime loan crises.  The owners who may be forced to sell because they can’t make payments, are having to sell-short or are approaching eminent foreclosure are my clients.  I also represent several lenders who may represent properties they have acquired that must be sold.  I like to think if myself as an advocate for the borrower, but yet able to represent the best interests of the lenders.
