Passionate Expertise in My Tropical Markets

• Deep Market Knowledge and Love
  • South Florida, Hawai’i and The Bahamas are my places of passion that I wish to share with you from the lens of a homeowner, investor and / or frequent visitor. With years of experience in these luxury tropical markets, I have an intimate understanding of each area’s unique characteristics, culture, market trends and property values.
• South Florida
  • I am currently South Florida based and live between Fort Lauderdale and Coral Gables, having also spent a significant amount of time living in Coconut Grove. These are my core markets of passion and expertise that I wish to share with you whether you are seeking an investment project, primary or secondary home.
  • If looking for somewhere else geographically, it would be my pleasure to help you explore other areas of South Florida by teaming up with one of my fellow trusted advisors who specialize in any other particular neighborhoods of interest. It is my objective for you to have expert advice.

• Hawai’i and The Bahamas
  • I have been blessed with the joy of traveling to Hawai’i for much of my adult life, first when my brother was stationed with the US Marines, and later for regular, extended retreats with my family and friends – it is one of my happy places on Earth. Oahu and Maui are my favorite two islands, where I feel I can bring you the most value by sharing my experiences and insights, but I have a great network of professionals throughout the islands.
  • For many years now, I have had the privilege of traveling to The Bahamas for both short trips and extended stays. I have spent a meaningful amount of time in New Providence (specifically in the west), Harbour Island / North Eleuthera, and The Exumas. There are a number of communities that I have explored for myself as an investment and / or secondary home, and it would be my honor to share my knowledge and experience with you. In The Bahamas it is important to have intimate (and timely) local knowledge, and I have built a great network of locals to help explore real estate opportunities.
  • In addition to pursuing my own home projects through Tropical Phoenix Homes, I would love an opportunity to help you find an investment project, primary or secondary home in these tropical markets.
