Los Angeles Real Estate Agent My sales and strategy acumen began in an unlikely place; the US military. Cheers! Chris

Frank Lloyd Wright described architecture’s purpose aptly, “Without an architecture of our own we have no soul of our own civilization.” Though Los Angeles is not always considered the mecca of iconic public architecture, I have found its unique homes and diverse neighborhoods give this city its own eclectic soul. From the great 1920s Spanish and Mediterranean estates in Hancock Park and Los Feliz to the architectural homes or bungalow cottages in Venice Beach – from the traditional mega estates in Beverly Hills to the ultra modern view homes overlooking the Sunset Strip; I am fortunate to have worked in all parts of this expansive city. In fact, rather than focus on a certain area, I follow my clients – entertainment executives, actors, writers, musicians, entrepreneurs, attorneys – and my clients crisscross Los Angeles’ most exclusive, diverse and up and coming neighborhoods. During the 1990s, I served as a newly minted Naval Intelligence Officer in Operation Desert Storm where I assembled vast quantities of information into a cohesive picture and presented this intelligence to wartime commanders. In essence, I sold “strategy and tactics.” During my subsequent tour at Naval Special Warfare Command, I interacted with civilian companies to help generate intelligence technology, which Navy SEALS could deploy with. Ultimately, I would “sell” my commanding officers on the validity of these essential programs to ensure the SEALS had the best shot at executing their missions. In 2006, I put on a new type of uniform; suit and tie and thus began my real estate career. Working closely with Ernie Carswell, a distinguished veteran in Los Angeles’ luxury real estate market, I cut my teeth executing 30 plus transactions per year. This relationship blossomed into a very successful partnership and together we closed over $80MM of real estate transactions last year. At the US Naval Academy, I honed skills including integrity, attention to detail and esprit de corps. As a naval officer, I built upon these skills in highly volatile environments and believed that anything was possible. And as your real estate agent, I will guide you through complex and at times, difficult transactions ensuring that you achieve the results you want. In my spare time, I enjoy cross training, attending musicals of almost any kind, and a supremely chilled Hanger One martini – up with a couple of olives. In addition, I am also involved with veterans groups and support a variety of charities. Wishing everyone fair winds and following seas in life and in their real estate endeavors.

I can only imagine how overwhelming it must be to lose one’s home or to even lose the use of one’s home for an extended period of time. If I can help in any capacity, I stand at the ready to do so.

Recently, I participated in discussions that focused on immediate “next steps” if you have experienced a loss. Douglas Elliman has prepared a step by step guide and following are highlights from our discussion:

1. Notify your insurance carrier and make a claim.
2. Get a claim number.
3. Start to make an inventory of what was lost and/or damaged. If you have access to your digital photos and videos, use these to help generate your list.
4. Read and understand your insurance policy.
5. Douglas Elliman has also provided the following guide to help…

I wish all of those affected by the horrific wildfires fair winds and following seas on their journeys to recover and to rebuild.

📍Neighborhood Spotlight: Calabasas—where luxury meets laid-back living. This gem of a neighborhood is not just home to stunning mansions, scenic views, and The Commons, but also to some pretty famous faces. What many people don't realize is it also offers outstanding public and private schools. In fact, my daughter attends 3rd grade at The Viewpoint School which serves K-12 students and is considered one of the best in Los Angeles. Go, Patriots!
