My name is Simon and I have been an active Real Estate Broker since the late 1990's. With almost 3 decades of experience, I have a specialty with international clients and deep ties to the Asian and military communities. Being trilingual (English, Cantonese and Mandarin), I am able to connect with older generation clients who may not be tech savvy or have English as their second language. I pride myself on building trust and confidence in my network. I like to treat my clients as close confidants and give them unbiased facts to assist with their decision making. Looking forward to representing Best Choice Realty!
