Bio
As a Commercial Real Estate professional who also performs business brokerage, I have spent years handling transactions across the full spectrum of commercial real estate sectors, rather than focusing specifically upon a single niche to the exclusion of all else. I do this because I have a broad and deep business background across many industries, and our Clients tend to have diversified investment portfolios, wide ranging interests and complex needs. Our commitment is to be able to handle these for them, work closely with their existing professional advisors, and to bring in any partners with specialist expertise that may also be valuable for specific transactions. Many of Carmen's. and our extended Partners', Clients are either startups looking for guidance in their first lease, or growth stage companies seeking to make their first purchase of a commercial property. Other Clients are mid-size to large companies looking to expand into new locations or a larger HQ space, or investment funds seeking to do new transactions or developments. Then we have Clients at the retirement stage where they are ready to sell their business and/or the real property that goes with it. Whether it is helping with their business plan, performing a Comparable Market Analysis of their likely business worth, prior to a formal valuation by a specialist 3rd party professional, or needing a fractional business executive to step in, I am here to help. I have also been a business strategy professional and Fractional Chief Operating Officer to my executive consulting Clients for roughly 20 years, helping my Clients to grow their businesses and eventually to turn them into independently valuable assets that can operate without them, if necessary. This ensures that the business can fetch the maximum valuation possible when it comes time for the Owner to sell it …even if that “sale” is merely to the next generation of the family or to key employees/management. For over 19 years now I have been helping early stage start-ups and mid-market companies that are seeking to grow to 2-5 times their current size within the next 4-10 years. Generally their revenues are between $5M and $75M. As a long time Northern California resident, I know from experience the multi-fold benefits to both businesses and families for choosing this incredibly centralized, convenient and affordable location within Northern California. We are in the most amazing Wine Country and within easy reach of three major international airports, as well as an easy drive away from San Francisco, Oakland, Sacramento, Walnut Creek and Santa Rosa. Prior to this I lived in San Francisco, the upper Midwest, Canada and the UK. I was educated at Cambridge University.
