OPENING DOORS. BUILDING WEALTH. EMPOWERING GENERATIONS.

OUR STORY

I immigrated from Cuba in 1970 at eight years old, arriving in Miami with my family as we fled communism in search of freedom and opportunity. My parents worked tirelessly during those first years in the United States, determined to build a stable future. In 1976, after a two-year battle with cancer, my father passed away. My mother became his full-time caretaker, and from a very young age, my brother and I worked to help support our family.

Those early experiences shaped my belief in homeownership-not just as shelter, but as stability, dignity, and the foundation of generational wealth.

FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE TO PURPOSE

In 1996, I founded Countywide Properties, a full-service real estate company committed to helping first-time buyers and families build generational wealth through real estate. Our services grew to include residential, commercial, luxury, investment, and bank-owned properties.

In 2019, we joined the ERA network and became Countywide Properties ERA. This partnership allows us to offer:

A global reach

Sophisticated technology

Advanced marketing platforms

National and international exposure for our clients and agents

LEADERSHIP IN THE INDUSTRY

My commitment to serving the community extends far beyond the business. Over the years, I've been deeply involved in industry leadership, volunteering and elevating the profession.
