Born in Cuba and raised in Puerto Rico, I'm 100% "Caribeño". Graduated High School in 1978 and eventually went on to graduate from Miami Dade College (known then as Miami Dade Community College) obtaining degrees in Financial Services and in Business Administration.

Later obtained a BS in Finance and International Business as well as other Financial industry related certificates from Florida International University.

I have been a resident of Miami-Dade County since 1980 and live in Miami Beach.

I am completely fluent in English and Spanish and can speak some German.

Worked in the banking industry for almost 16 years, 11 of which were spent with an International bank which was headquartered in Frankfurt, Germany, where I learned to speak the language.

Later worked as a consultant for about 1½ years and after 9-11, went on to manage security checkpoints at Miami International Airport (MIA). The experience led to an opportunity to become one of about 1,500 trainers who traveled around the country and trained the 50,000 or so screaners first implemented by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) when they took over the responsibility for airport security nationwide.

I am divorced and the proud father of three children. My boys, Wenceslao, now living on his own, Jose Rene, who now attends Miami Dade College and lives with me, and my princess, Alexsandra, now in fifth grade, who lives with mom.

I am a hard worker who puts the needs of others ahead of my own. Most of my friends respect me for my integrity and candid honesty when they seek my advise.

I have been involved in the real estate field for several years now and I'm looking forward to meeting all your industry related needs.

The following is just a few of the ways I can help you:

Buyers: I can represent you as your Realtor of choice. Ask yourself, would you go to court as a defendant or plaintiff in a lawsuit without proper representation? When you choose to use my services, I will help you find the property you want, in the area you want and at the price you can afford. I can even negotiate with owners privately selling their property. Since I am hired by you, while the seller is represented by the Listing Agent, I on the other hand, represent you exclusively in the transaction, watching for YOUR best interest. The best is - I still get paid by the seller. Get my FREE BUYER REPORTS to help you Stop Paying Rent.

Sellers: Weather you are selling on your own or you are in the process of selecting a Professional Realtor that will help you get your property sold, I can walk you through every step of the way. From determining the right price to ask for your property, to preparation of your property and marketing. There is a difference in the Realtor YOU CHOOSE. Choose one that provides you FREE SELLER REPORTS to help you determine the right price for your house, even if you are in a distressed situation.

Investors: As an investor myself, I can help you find just the right investment property for you. If you own property you are either looking to rent/lease or sell via 1031 or to an end-user, let me earn a place as member of your investment team. If you are looking for opportunities in real estate, choose to get your FREE Distressed Property list from me.

CDPE(c): As your Certified Distressed Property Expert, I have the necessary training and skills to see you through your toughest times. Weather you are buying, selling or dealing with banks to negotiate a Short Sale transaction, this requires expertise.

Sellers need to protect themselves and minimize their financial damage at all cost. Foreclosure and Bankruptcy may have devastating and lasting results. You do not have to go at it alone nor should you ignore the situation. Take control today!

Buyers need to know that a submitted contract will close. Otherwise, why waste your time? Although a slower and lengthier process, submitting an offer to a distressed homeowner may be one of the best ways to buy real estate today. In fact, a distressed transaction closed today, may be the best investment made for years to come. The last time we had a market like today, was over 15 years ago and the next opportunity may not come for another 15 years or more! Hire and expert that will help you increase your odds of winning!

Thank you for putting YOUR TRUST in me and hope to hear from you SOON.
