The Pugh Group

Specialties

I run a team of proactive real estate agents at Keller Williams Newport Beach. We immediately take action for our buyers and sellers whether that be door knocking, cold calling or sending letters to find off-​market opportunities for our buyers and to find buyers for our sellers.

Buying or selling is a stressful process, there is just no way around it — or not one that I’ve found yet. We always try to put ourselves between the stressor and our clients, and we do our best to make the process fun. You’ll find that we are very responsive and return emails, calls, and texts very quickly if not immediately. Go ahead and reach out and «test» us — we’d love to begin auditioning for the job now.

Our goal is to be the best Vice President you could have and provide the research and information to all my clients so they can make informed decisions.

This research includes statistical analysis and spreadsheets outlining current market trends and analyzing recent sales and comparable offerings.

Additionally, we provide the highest quality marketing, both print and electronic, to ensure that the homes we represent are professionally presented to buyers and their agents. Clients appreciate our skilled negotiation practices and thorough follow up and advice. Our knowledge of the pitfalls in buying or selling and a team of resources help to guide my clients to a successful closing.

History

Established in 2004.

Growing up in the village of Turtle Rock in Irvine, both my parents were Realtors and there was never a dinner conversation that didn’t involve Real Estate. I began passing out flyers on my Rollerblades at age 7 for 10 cents a house, and by age 10 I realized I could leverage myself by enlisting friends to deliver the flyers for 5 cents a house and keeping the profit. When the first electronic MLS was introduced I immediately mastered the system and began assisting my parents with market analysis and administrative tasks.

I obtained my license when I was 19 and soon began working with one of the top agents in the world. Working as a small team, we grew the business to a point where we achieved yearly sales in excess of $ 100 million and participated in several of the record Orange County sales, including the highest sale in Orange County history at $ 35 million. Following this 7 year mentorship, I began to build my own brand and achieved sales in excess of $ 6 million in the first year.
