About

After 30+ years of military and civil service aviation, I am moving on to work with Chris Pre, a “wicked smart” real estate investor, educator and thought leader in the investing space. I have several single-family house, condo, townhouse deals under my belt, including a successful first 1031 Exchange in 2023. I practice what I sell: I’m marketing a townhouse I control as an owner financed, rent to own deal.

      I help FSBO and other sellers to move on through creative financing. I also help deserving buyers who aren’t quite ready to qualify for a traditional mortgage, or who would rather buy outside the mortgage system, to lease-purchase homes. I am an independent investor working with an international group of associates under the umbrella of Chris Prefontaine’s “Wick Smart” paradigm.
