Areas of Expertise

I practised law for over 25 years, primarily in the health care, pension and insurance sectors. My role consistently brought me into the real estate business, advising clients on the acquisition, disposition, and investment in real estate.

These three sectors encouraged me to learn as much as possible about succession planning, financial planning, tax planning, investment returns, and risk management. I have now applied these skills to real estate, and I am hopeful that my experience can be put to good use for you.

Over the last 20 years, I have participated in several venture capital and real estate companies with a primary interest in investment, management, and development of real estate.

I joined Royal LePage Innovators Realty Inc. in October 2005. I am working in both the commercial and residential fields. I have a wealth of experience to draw upon, including over 5,000 transactions involving real estate. I have provided professional advice to the following:

· Purchasers, Vendors and Mortgagees

· Investors, Pension Fund Managers

· Property Managers

· Real Estate Builders and Developers

· Contractors and Architects

• Insurers

The principles of real estate investment and achieving superior returns are relatively straightforward. The difficulty is applying them in particular transactions.

I believe that it is my role to ensure that my clients will make sound and informed decisions concerning the purchase and sale of property.
