A Higher Level of Professionalism
Few Real Estate Practitioners anywhere have the depth and breadth of education and experience that Ed brings to the profession. Ed started his Real Estate Experience in 1976 when he became a Real Property Right-of-Way Agent with Sierra Telephone. For the next 24 years he purchased land and leases; procured easements and rights-of-way; and obtained permits from various government agencies at national, state, county, and district levels. He partioned land, wrote legal descriptions, drafted documents, and coordinated activities with Land Surveyors, Title/Escrow Officers, Developers, Builders, Contractors, Public Officials, Appraisers, Attorneys, Engineers, Agents, Brokers, and other land services professionals.
In 2005 Ed completed 6 additional college and college level courses and upgraded to a Broker's license. He served as Education Committee Chairman for the Yosemite Gateway Association of REALTORS® for 2006 and 2007. He also teaches Real Estate at the local community college.
Ed graduated from Antelope Valley College with a major in Business Administration. He also holds both Bachelor of Science and Master of Science degrees from the University of San Francisco. In former lives, Ed has been an Arthur Murray Ballroom Dance Teacher, a Retail Store Manager, a Radio Announcer/Engineer, a Retail Business Owner, and an Advertising Account Executive.
He is proud to be a member of the award winning Oakhurst Real Estate team in Oakhurst. California, and a real estate instructor with the Oakhurst campus of State Center Community College. Ed holds a California Real Estate Broker license with requirements and knowledge far beyond the requirements for the Salesperson Llcense.
He has lived in our beautiful mountains since 1972 and, having spent 24 years as a Right-of-Way Agent/Outside Plant Engineer with Sierra Telephone, knows the area extremely well.
A Top Quality Producer
It is not his goal to be a top volume producer or a top earner. His focus instead is to be a top quality producer - to be the best real estate professional that he can possibly be. He will never take on more clients than he can service at the highest quality level. Buying or selling a home is not like buying or selling a used vacuum cleaner at a yard sale. It is a big deal. It is, in most cases, the largest commitemnt of your lifetime. You deserve the services of a proven Real Estate Professional who will spend enough time to make sure that everything is done right and accordance with all applicable laws.
Knowledge and Experience Make the Difference
Ed continues to work toward the goal of being one of the best known, best educated, most experienced, most knowledgeable, most respected, and most trusted Real Estate professionals in the area. He wants your trust, and he wants the opportunity to earn it. He has completed the Graduate Realtors Institute (GRI) program, will soon be earning the Senior Real Estate Specialist designation, and expects to receive prestigous "Distinguished Real Estate Instructor (DREI)" award from the Real Estate Education Association.
