New for 2012

I made a New Years resolution to offer 4.5% listing commissions to home sellers in the Rincon Valley area (95409) through 2012. For more information on why I am offering this service, and what types of Rincon Valley homes qualify, go to: Working smarter, or call me

  



"Your Rincon Valley Realtor:"  People ask me why I call myself "your Rincon Valley Realtor."  I've lived in Rincon Valley for almost 20 years.  I bought my first townhouse in Rincon Valley in 1994.  I then bought a single family home in Rincon Valley, and later acquired a rental unit, also in Rincon Valley.  My two kids go to two different Rincon Valley schools which has provided me with a huge group of social contacts with whom I talk to on a daily basis.  I believe it is this source of friends and neighbors that has allowed me to succeed as a Realtor in Rincon Valley, by bringing buyers and sellers together. 

IDX SEARCH
