John was influenced by two of his uncles that were also real estate brokers. One uncle was a very successful commercial real estate broker in the Los Angeles, California area, and the other uncle was a highly successful residential real estate broker in the Tampa Bay, Florida area. Prior to his career in real estate, John was a series seven licensed financial adviser and mortgage banker who assisted commercial real estate developers in connecting with financial institutions to develop land for residential development.

Commercial real estate is never emotional. It is all about the numbers. One day, John helped a residential borrower secure a nonconventional loan to buy a home. The client was ecstatic at the closing table, and that made John feel great that someone expressed genuine gratitude for helping them buy real estate. From then on, John decided to devote his career to helping individuals buy and sell real estate.
