“I will find the right property for you!”

More than a promise or even a guarantee, this statement is a testament to Bill’s track record of matching each of his clients to the investment property that best meets their business and personal goals.

Bill’s success is no fluke, but the result of a lifetime of hard work. He has dedicated his entire professional career to the study and practice of effective and profitable commercial real estate investments. But Bill’s dedication is not the whole secret to his success. His clients have to be every bit as committed to Bill’s process as he is.

As Bill says, “It’s not a beauty contest,” where he trots out a bunch of properties from his inventory for a shopper to pick and choose. In fact, when Bill takes on a new client or a new assignment for a current client, the investment opportunity that best meets that clients’ goals may not even be on the market…and that’s where Bill’s dedication and determination come into play. When Bill and a client agree on an investment plan, Bill will find the right property. It’s that simple. That doesn’t mean “easy,” because doing takes dedication of time and resources. But in the end it will be the right deal.

As a competing Tri-athlete, Bill puts his clients in this light: “Successful investors learn, just as triathletes, the importance of endurance. A tri-athalon is not won quickly. Finishing—let alone winning—is a matter of pacing and patience. Investing, in Bill’s opinion, is no different. Pursuing a “get rich quick” strategy is a sure way to get poor quick.

Bill’s advice? “Take the first step,” he says. “Meet with someone you trust, and remember, it isn’t a race, this is a long-term objective. Success is all about endurance. You commit to me and I commit to you.”
