I'VE LIVED IN THE FORT LAUDERDALE AREA SINCE 1957, AND IT JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER HERE, IN THE LAND OF SUN & FUN!
NOTHING COMPARES WITH OUR GREAT FLORIDA LIFESTYLE!
NOT ONLY THAT, THE BOOMING REAL ESTATE PRICES DOWN HERE ARE RECESSSION-PROOF, BUBBLE-PROOF, AND EVEN HURRICANE-PROOF!
I'VE BEEN HELPING MY CUSTOMERS WITH THEIR REAL ESTATE NEEDS FOR THE LAST 7 YEARS.
PRIOR TO THAT, I HELD DUAL POSITIONS AS A MENTAL HEALTH THERAPIST/ CLINICAL DIRECTOR/ ADMINISTRATOR OF A PROGRAM FOR COURT ORDERED CLIENTS IN DOWNTOWN FORT LAUDERDALE, WHERE CLIENTS WITH DRUG, ALCOHOL, AND PROBLEMATIC BEHAVIORS WERE SENT TO, AGAINST THEIR WILL. I BELIEVE THAT MY EXPERIENCE DURING THOSE 18 YEARS ALLOWED ME TO DEVELOP THE STRONG NEGOTIATING SKILLS AND ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGEMENT WHICH I POSSESS TODAY. I FIND THAT IN DEALING WITH MY CUSTOMERS IN REAL ESTATE TODAY (THE CONFLICTS THAT CAN DEVELOP OVER DETAILS IN CONTRACT DEMANDS, AND THE STRESS OF GOING THROUGH A SALE OR PURCHASE OF A HOME); THAT THE SPECIAL SKILLS I DEVELOPED WHILE TRYING TO HELP THOSE WITH SEVERE DYSFUNCTIONS IN THEIR LIVES SO MANY YEARS AGO, HAVE BECOME INVALUABLE TOOLS TODAY, WHICH ALLOW ME TO HELP MY CUSTOMERS GET THE BEST POSSIBLE TERMS WITH THEIR HOME PURCHASES AND SALES, WITH THE LEAST AMOUNT OF STRESS OR ANXIETY OVER THE PROCESS!
I HOLD A BA DEGREE IN ENGLISH/HUMANITIES FROM FAU ('68).
I COMPLETED SUBSEQUENT GRADUATE LEVEL STUDIES IN COUNSELING/PSYCHOLOGY AT NOVA UNIVERSITY ('79).
ALL MY YEARS OF EXPERIENCE, MY STRONG NEGOTIATING SKILLS, AND PROFESSIONAL ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGEMENT... ARE AT YOUR SERVICE. IT IS MY PRIVILEGE TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR REAL ESTATE NEEDS.
The following testimonials from some of my happy customers can be verified upon request...

We want you to know how much we appreciate all that you did for us. We really appreciate the way you handled all the details of purchasing our oceanfront condo in Highland Beach while we were still living in NJ. The way you handled everything for us down there... We are truly grateful...

Just a note to thank you for the diligence with which you sold my income properties. And I also want to commend you for for helping me find my new dream home! I will tell all my family and friends about you. You deserve all the success that you are earning.

We will refer you to our friends and family because you showed us that you are able to deliver on all your promises. Selling our home in 30 days, at a higher price than we even had in mind, proves to us that you are a true professional, with a proven marketing plan, who makes the selling fun and easy, and who handles all the details meticulously... all the way through the process.

Thank you for all your help with my multiple purchases and sales of properties in Broward County. Your professionalism and honesty inspired my confidence. How nice to finally find a Realtor I can trust with my investments!

You've become our Realtor for life by showing us a caliber of professionalism seldom found these days. You've been diligent and available every step of the way with the sale & purchase of our various properties over the past few years. We'll be sure to tell our friends to call you when they need to buy or sell a home!

You've shown me that buying a home can be not only a profitable venture, but also fun and exciting! You were able to find me just what I had in mind. You negotiated all the terms and conditions to protect my best interests; and did not only make the process fun, but you answered all of my million questions, and made me laugh at my fears and anxieties during the entire process. Thanks, Ray!

Ray, we felt that we could trust you from the moment we met you. Your abilities became evident whe you found us a buyer so quickly. The professional way in which you handled the entire transaction, while we were either in Bimini or Tennesssee, proved to us that our first impression of you was right on target! We now consider you a friend, and will tell all the people we know to call on you when they need to sell their home. Best wishes, and thanks again!

Thanks a lot, Ray. You made what I thought would have been a very difficult transaction, a very fast and smooth process! You handled all the details while we were back and forth to Venezuela, in a most remarkable manner... You did great for us! That's why we're now trusting you with the sale of our 4 brand-new townhouses in Homestead! We're glad you're our Realtor.

After having listed my 2-story, 5/4, pool home in Las Olas By The Sea with three different "big name" real estate companies in the area (and wasting 2 years in the process with no results)... you not only got me top dollar for my property, and in less than 60 days, but you actually found the buyer yourself!
I won't forget you when my associates, relatives or friends need to find a trustworthy Realtor! Wish I had found you before I had to go through all the frustrations and running around that I had to endure... before you came along and sold my home!

After meeting with some of the more "famous" Realtors in Lighthouse Point, and then finding you, we knew that you were the Realtor for us.... Thanks for making the sale of our 4/3, waterfront/pool home in Lighthouse Point such a success! We really appreciate your skills, dedication and integrity. We knew that even though you were not associated with a major company, you had the ethical values, success identification, and diligence we were hoping to find. And we were right! Thanks!

We'll be referring everyone we know to use your services! You were terrific with the sale of our Poinsettia Heights home, downtown Fort Lauderdale. And the way you were able to coordinate that closing to take place on the same day as the closing on the new home you found for us! You made it seem so easy! Thanks for all your help. We really appreciate your work!

What a pleasure to deal with you! For you to send us photos via email to our home in California, of the home you had just listed a few hours hours before in Fort Lauderdale... was incredible! You knew that a home like that was just what we were looking to buy. And by letting us know right away, we were able to secure a Florida home before moving down, and it is perfect for us! Way to go! We'll be talking about you for a long time...

I told you I had interviewed quite a number of Realtors to sell my pool home in Fort Lauderdale before I met with you, and that I still had appointments to meet with 3 other Realtors after your meeting with me. Well, your listing presentation, your marketing plan, your level of preparation to objectively show me the current market in my area, and your obvious professionalism, gave me the assurance that you were the Realtor I could trust with the sale of my home. What I had never expected, was that you would find a buyer and present me with a written offer one day after listing my home for sale! Talk about exceeding my expectations... I'm impressed beyond words, and will refer my friends to you when they need to sell their home! Thanks, Ray.
