About Walt
I have been licensed to practice Real Estate in the State of Washington since 1978 and held a broker's license since 1983. In 1986 I attained the CCIM (Certified Commercial Investment Member) designation of the Realtors National Marketing Instutute. My educational career started with nine years of college as history, horticulture, and business majors. Thereafter I attended many professional improvement seminars and classes aimed towards the certified Property Manager designation. Property management expertise helps my clients and I in invesment brokerage because it furnishes a much greater understanding of the problems and opportunities involved in operating properties after the sale closes. This helps to more accurately project income and expenses in the future which will enhance decision making for purchase or sale of real property.
