Description
John has deployed his Columbia MBA, experience building houses, and legendary service to help clients realize over $350 million in real estate transactions. He focuses on making real estate goals become reality for extraordinary people in Silicon Valley.
John’s function in a purchase or sale is to make life less stressful for his clients, negotiate the best deal, spread clarity, and prevent mistakes from happening. As a full-service realtor, he offers top-tier service, fiduciary responsibility, and the utmost in loyalty to his buyers and sellers.
Together with his wife and business partner Gloria, he has developed eight luxury homes in Silicon Valley with a market value of $100 million. His insight into the ease and expense of various home construction or renovation alternatives allows his clients to make more informed decisions. In 2018, he and Gloria completed the design and build of their home from the ground up in the Crescent Park neighborhood of Palo Alto, where their boys attend elementary school and where John is active as a PTA executive and volunteer.
Prior to helping clients buy and sell multimillion dollar properties in Silicon Valley, John was a venture capitalist New York City, and a producer/designer/executive at a series of venture-backed online games companies. From founding his own company to enabling the successful sale of another company to Microsoft for hundreds of millions of dollars, John has negotiated and closed hundreds of deals. He especially enjoys crunching data and authoring original analysis pieces so that he can provide novel and unique advice to his clients.
John has been an avid Palo Altan for the past 17 years, adding to his rap sheet as a New Yorker, Hong Konger, Tokyoite, and multi-domiciled Canadian. John is occasionally found debating geopolitics, playing Dungeons & Dragons, bartending for friends, and cheering on the San Francisco 49ers. Having backpacked around the world on four occasions, he understands that material possessions are just tools for life, not the purpose of it all. A home is a vessel for experiences, not the true end-goal. Shrewd financial management and estate planning are ultimately in service of a life thoughtfully lived. John offers his skills and perspectives to each client with tireless enthusiasm, helping them to achieve the results they desire.
