Broker Biography
Introduction
ABI - Accredited Business Intermediary
10+ years of experience in Real Estate/ Commercial Real Estate
I have experience as both a Real Estate investor and Business owner, which allows me to offer valuable assistance to you. My Real Estate business was established in 2014, and I made my initial investment in 2017. Over time, I grew my portfolio to encompass around 15 properties by 2020. Shifting from the residential sector to commercial real estate, I discovered my passion for working with commercial investors. A trip to SWFL in 2021 ignited my love for Florida, leading me to invest in Airbnb properties in North Port and Englewood. In August 2022, I made the decision to permanently relocate to Florida to focus on my commercial broker business/Business Intermediary services. I am excited to continue my work in the Sunshine state. While I specialize in SWFL, I am also licensed across the entire State.
