Hi, I’m Gil—your dedicated Real Estate Partner for Life.

 

My story began in a humble farming village near the breathtaking UNESCO Ifugao Rice Terraces in the Philippines, a journey that eventually led me to the vibrant energy of Los Angeles. It was here that my profound passion for people, diverse cultures, compelling architecture, design, and, most importantly, homes, fully blossomed.

 

 

My professional foundation is rooted in a CPA background, having spent formative years working with respected private equity and hedge funds on the Westside. This experience provided invaluable insight into the undeniable and unlimited value of real estate as a cornerstone of wealth and happiness for every American. My defining shift was inspired by meeting Jay Martinez, a professional who, despite starting his career during the Great Recession, dramatically catapulted to Rookie of the Year status. His success sparked a deep yearning in me for something more tangible—the opportunity to directly connect with people and their homes. Inspired by Jay, I embarked on this new adventure, and the rest is history. For the past 12 years, I’ve been privileged to weave dreams and opportunities into reality for the many wonderful people I’ve met. I am profoundly grateful for their trust, which continues to shape who I am today. For me, buying or selling a home is not merely a transaction—it is the work that brings me alive, allowing me to deliver a profound sense of joy and become a client’s lifelong partner in real estate.

 

 

In every closing, challenges are inevitable, but I am always prepared to roll up my sleeves and thrive on finding creative solutions to successfully get deals done. Your goals become my mission. I strive to listen intently, truly understand your needs, address your fears, and honor your dreams. Please know that your success and happiness are paramount to me.

 

 

When I’m not glued to my phone or actively scouting properties, you’ll find me exploring hidden destinations. Whether it’s finding a cozy café tucked away in the cobblestoned streets of Albayzin, seeking out a remote beach in Melanesia, or discovering new culinary flavors to connect with diverse cultures, count me in. Embracing the beauty of our Earth, perhaps while diving alongside giant manta rays in the Coral Sea, is where my soul truly thrives.

 

 

Thank you for allowing me to share a little about my journey. I am genuinely eager to hear your story, too!
