Manage and provide training for team of real estate agents and negotiators. Highlights:◆ I have successfully negotiated "short refi's" allowing borrowers to refinance their mortgages for hundreds of thousands less than their original balance, allowing them to afford to stay in their homes. I don't know of another broker that has accomplished this with a first TD (outside of HARP).◆ Featured at Tom Ferry event for marketing strategy, successfully executing 54 listing contracts my first three months in operation.◆ Created and host public outreach presentations at community centers in Orange and Riverside Counties, providing free educational information to homeowners on their legal options in times of fiscal crisis.◆ Still batting a 1000 negotiating to get all buyers under contract for their FIRST choice of home--even under the most competitive of situations. Favorite recent accolade (made by the listing agent while presenting my buyer's offer): "Man, when I go to buy my house, I want to hire YOU to be my agent!" Show less
