I see the potential in raw land, a tired property, or an original idea, underwrite it, sell the vision, and carry it through design, entitlement, and construction to an income-producing asset.

01 · Strategy

The loss-leader play.

I always wanted to be a developer and saw no clear path in. So I started Proper Management deliberately as a loss leader for development and construction deals: the cleanest path to high-net-worth real estate investors. It worked.

  1. 1

    Build the doorway

    Founded Proper Management in December 2020 and grew it to 67 doors across Orange County, Los Angeles, and the high desert.

  2. 2

    Earn the trust

    263 leases completed and 38 residential remodels delivered for owners and managed properties.

  3. 3

    Develop

    It led to the Stanford Duplex, the 16th Place triplex turnaround, and Proper Development.

The growth engine

A proprietary lead-generation system

Growth to 67 doors and $346K in revenue came from a system I designed: a custom Python script working with a rotating proxy server, Zapier, Flodesk, and Webflow. It scraped active lease listings, rebranded each listing in Proper Management's style, and emailed it back to the landlord via Flodesk with an offer to take over leasing and management.

Proactive Properties MOU

Secured and delivered a memorandum of understanding from Proactive Properties, the largest group of landowners in the Morongo Basin, who contracted me to conduct highest-and-best-use analysis on 2,143 acres across 70 parcels and to begin developing them.

Investor presentations, listing decks, and pro formas I built. Download any of them as a PDF.
