Prior to being a Realtor:
The vast majority of my career prior to being a licensed agent and Realtor® was spent building businesses with my father in the real estate industry but nothing to do with Agency or being a Realtor®. After returning from Eckerd College in late 1997, the plan was really to find a career or business opportunity away from my father's businesses before possibly working together. By March of 1998 we were working with $400,000 from a local Gilbert farm family to start a fix n flip business together. We went from buying our own properties at the auctions with about 2 million of inventory at any one time to being one of the top 3 dominant auction buyers in Maricopa County Arizona from about 2002 to 2007, and operating in 6 Western US States at the peak. During that same time period, from early 1998 to late 2010, I was either directly or indirectly involved in multiple development projects that my father and the other businesses in the building we owned and ran our businesses out of. Some of those included turning an old movie theater into a charter school, an 80 + acre development in and around the San Marcos Golf Course in Chandler Arizona, multiple office building developments, and the due diligence and acquisition of over half the condos in three connecting HOA's totaling nearly 700 units. Also from about late 2004 until around 2007 my wife at the time and I bought into and opened our first pizza franchise restaurant, Nick n Willy's Take n Bake Pizza. As you may or may not gather from the rest of this application, sometimes we have taken on a bit more than we may have been able to chew. I had to shut down the one we opened ourselves, including negotiating our way out of that guaranteed lease, almost six figures settlement by itself. In 2007 I got my real estate license to begin liquidating our own REO properties. Most of 2007 to 2009 was spent dealing with the collapse and implosion of these two businesses. By 2010 I was moving on to my next investment business in real estate for a couple of years before deciding to use my real estate license to be a full time Realtor® to pay my bills, control my time and then build equity again once I had the opportunity.
