About
Leading by example, one assignment at a time.

Grant’s start in real estate came at 22, as a broker’s assistant at a small beach-city firm. He founded On Point Real Estate with one idea in mind: to lead by example, and to do so through integrity and mindfulness.
Today he is OPRE’s broker and designated officer. He works across residential sales, commercial leasing and sales, business brokerage and investment underwriting throughout San Diego County, and trains the agents who work alongside him.
Grant is a graduate of Salve Regina University.
Practice
One broker across residential, commercial and investment.
A homeowner becomes an investor. A tenant decides to buy. An investor trades a duplex for a net-lease building. Grant handles each side of that path himself, so the underwriting stays consistent from one decision to the next.
