About us

A little about us ... 

I love what I do, and I hope it’s reflected in the way I do business. I’m asked many times, “What’s your secret?” For those of you who are wondering the same thing, I can only tell you to love what you do, do it with pride and enthusiasm, and always "be the best you can be".

When we get involved in a property, whether selling or buying, I develop goals and strategies, pursuing each transaction with the same enthusiasm and dedication as I have for the past 30+ years of business. I am truly motivated to do the best we can and to represent our clients with the utmost integrity and service.

I’m competitive by nature and really enjoy "winning" for my clients. That means making them as happy as possible with their new home and/or striking the best deal we can for their benefit.

I started in real estate as a contractor doing remodeling, then custom home development, and now selling homes. My real estate background highlights include:

• Construction since 1975: remodeling, pools, waterscapes, hot tubs, hardscape, tennis courts, additions, landscapes.

• Developer since 1985 in new construction, custom homes and residential lots.

• California licensed general contractor through the early 1990s.

• Ground-up construction & remodeling of 50+ homes since 2000 in San Diego County.

• Designing and developing tennis courts and fantasy backyards with swimming pools, waterfalls and natural rock hardscapes.

I bring a technical, analytical approach to our business, with emphasis in market analysis, marketing, construction, negotiation, contracts and applying lending-edge technology. I enjoyed working with my late wife, Cheryl Betyar (a real dynamo in San Diego real estate), and now working with my sons.
