A six or seven figure transaction deserves the best qualified and most experienced agent to protect your best interest. This is especially critical here in Alabama where we are a "Caveat Emptor"/ buyer beware state.   I'm not salesy.  If you want the best advice and representation, I'm your guy.  If you want someone great at selling you something, I can recommend a few agents to you.

What I do: I help you find the ideal property that best suits your individual and family goals. More importantly, I make sure that you contract for the property at the best possible price and terms and that we close as and when scheduled, problem solving if necessary along the way.

As a Beach Realtor and Resort Market Specialist, I help buyers and sellers achieve their real estate goals along the Alabama gulf coast. With more than 30 years of experience as a successful attorney and as a Realtor for more than a decade, I have the skills and knowledge to negotiate and close great deals for my clients. I am certified by the National Association of Expert Advisers as both a Home Selling (CHSA) and Home Buying Adviser (CHBA), which demonstrates my expertise and commitment to excellence in the real estate industry. My local peers have recognized me as a Certified Resort Specialist, a rare designation based on production, client satisfaction, experience, community service, specialized education and recommendations.

My legal experience includes four years as a prosecutor of felony cases in a four county district, and I handled approximately 40 jury trials. I enjoyed a thriving private practice afterwards, and successfully litigated a wide variety of civil cases, including all aspects of domestic relations, workers compensation, personal injury, contract, insurance, business and real estate matters.

I enjoy real estate because I prioritize my clients' needs and represent them with the same zeal as I did as an attorney for my law clients. I now work with Coldwell Banker Coastal Realty. I've created a strong real estate practice successfully handling sale transactions of coastal condos and homes for clients that purchase or sell as second homes, investments, rentals and tax-deferred exchanges.  I enjoy working with out-of-town buyers who want to use passive rental income to pay for their dream beach property. I use my local market knowledge and study of economic trends to advise my clients on the best opportunities and strategies. I have a strong background in finance, marketing, investment, economics, and law, which gives me an edge in understanding and addressing the unique intricacies of the purchase and sale of beach properties.

I love hearing from clients that they are happy with their results and that they would recommend me to their family and friends.  Most wind up adding more beach properties to their portfolio.  I can put you in touch with them to talk about their transactions and even talk about how they use or manage their properties. I would be honored at the chance to win your business.
