With summer practically here, everyone wants to be on the Southern California Coast where the real estate market is heating up! Windermere SoCal is proud to present its newest powerhouse real estate team in Orange County – David Stoll & Partners Realty Group. Consisting of Realtors® David Stoll and Diane Rollo and their affiliated partners, this group has already set records in their first 30 days with Windermere SoCal, closing sales on $6 million+ with almost $2 million pending in sales.

“We are delighted that David and Diane chose to join forces with us at our Laguna Niguel office,” said Bob Deville, co-owner of Windermere Real Estate SoCal. “They are certainly a sales team to be reckoned with and have a fantastic history of client satisfaction. We look forward to assisting them in providing top quality, professional service to all of their clients.”

A familiar name in South Orange County real estate, David Stoll has been representing his clients for 12 years in the area, assisting them with traditional real estate purchases, shorts sales and investment properties. A native of Orange County, David graduate from Tustin High School before attending Cal State Fullerton, where he completed his studies in Business Management with an emphasis on marketing. Immediately launching into an early career in sales, David was a pioneer in the cellular industry and quickly became the Regional Director for a multi-billion dollar communications company. He grew his division to the company’s most profitable in the Southern California market. When he decided to return to his first love – real estate – David’s marketing savvy and superior level of client service allowed him to achieve instant recognition. In his first year with an international real estate brokerage, David was recognized for his achievement in sales that placed him in the top 13% worldwide. Over a decade later, David hasn’t looked back and his success hasn’t diminished. While specializing in the neighborhoods and cities of Orange County, David’s vast referral network keeps him busy listing from Los Angeles to San Diego and out to the Inland Empire. When not working with his clients, David enjoys spending quality time with his family and coaching his daughters’ softball team.

Diane Rollo recently joined David Stoll & Partners, where she has been successfully showing and listing properties in Laguna Beach and Oceanside.  Diane works the whole array of real estate transactions, representing Buyers and Sellers in the luxury real estate market and real estate investors. With degrees in psychology and sociology, as well as her accreditation as a Certified Home Marketing Specialist (CHMS), Diane works with each seller to identify the best strategy for marketing their homes.  A California transplant, Diane moved to be closer to her son as he entered his residency at UCLA, but she has fallen in love with the Coast and delights in representing the beautiful properties here.

Windermere Real Estate Southern California is pleased to welcome a host of new agents to their offices in Cathedral City, Palm Desert and Palm Springs. As the leading real estate brokerage in the Coachella Valley, Windermere is proud of their diverse and growing family of real estate professionals.

“Our job as a brokerage is to ensure that our agents are given the marketing tools, office support and education they need to stay current with market conditions regardless of how many years they have been in the real estate industry. We provide a host of educational opportunities through weekly office meetings and free formal educational classes, including DRE-accredited courses. Our offices are staffed seven days a week, and there is always a non-competing Managing Broker on-call to assist our agents at any office,” said Bob Deville, co-owner of Windermere Real Estate Southern California. “We support every Realtor® that joins us, from newly licensed agents to seasoned professionals, and cultivating new talent to the industry is a priority for us.”

Jonathan Bayer joins Windermere’s Palm Desert Portola office located at 73-993 Highway 111. A newly licensed agent, with a background in marketing and advertising, Jonathan looks forward to providing his clients with exceptional service.

Kirk Dow joins Windermere’s Cathedral City office located at 68-828 Ramon Road. A seasoned buyer and seller himself, Kirk seeks to translate his experiences as a homeowner and his background in sales into successful transactions on behalf of his clients.

While still transitioning out of a full-time job, Donelle is about to close on her seventh transaction and represents additional current listings for sale and lease.

“It has been an incredible first year,” shared Donelle. “The support that I’ve gotten from Windermere’s staff has been absolutely essential to my growing success. Bryan Arnold, my Managing Broker, has been a tremendous asset in guiding me through the process of getting out into the community and getting my name known in the Indian Palms Country Club where I work and live. My office manager, Tim Metz, has helped me learn the ropes of the Relay system which enables me to file, expedite and track my clients’ documents while staying mobile. Even though I’m not in the office every day, the support I receive at Windermere keeps me current.”

The Orlando’s Family Tradition of Orange County Real Estate

Sari, Maryann & Greg

Buying or selling a home is one of the biggest decisions a family will make in its lifetime. The list of concerns and priorities for the family can be endless. Where do you want the kids to go to school? How long will the commute be for the working parents? Do we have enough room(s) for the kids? Is there a decent yard for them to play in? Sometimes it’s enough to make you want your Mom!

For some families though, the love of real estate is practically genetically encoded. At Windermere, we have several agents who work alongside or from the same office as their mother or child, but in Laguna Niguel, we have a family where Mom has inspired both son and daughter to carry on a tradition of excellent service and professional behavior. (And we’re pretty sure there was some work discipline taught too!)

The Orlandos are a unique family real estate team. For over 25 years, Maryann Orlando has been representing buyers and sellers in Orange County where she has earned a reputation for her integrity and vast understanding of the local real estate market. An expert in the purchase and sale of residential properties in South Orange County, Maryann’s knowledge and experience allows her to quickly determine the physical condition, market value and renovation potential for specific homes. Her personal associations with local schools, service providers and neighborhood amenities further extends her ability to assist her clients in finding or selling their homes. Maryann’s skills and abilities have been passed down to her children, Greg Orlando and Sari Ward.

In 2004, Maryann’s son, Greg, joined her in real estate sales. In 2010, daughter Sari Ward joined. “Having Greg and Sari join me in real estate has truly been a dream come true for me,” shared Maryann.

Greg Orlando & his family

Greg is a lifelong resident of South Orange County, born and raised in Laguna Hills. After graduating from Santa Margarita High School, he attended California State Northridge where he earned his degree in Communication Studies. An obvious asset to working in sales and interacting with his clients, Greg conveyed his education into a career as a Realtor® and returned to coach football at his alma mater, Santa Margarita. His work in coaching and communications goes a long way to enabling his clients to refine, set and achieve their real estate goals. Greg, his wife and daughter now live in Mission Viejo.

Sari returned to the South Orange County area after living in San Francisco for over a decade with her husband while she worked as the

Sari & son

Director of Operations for Salesforce.com. As Director, Sari negotiated multimillion dollar contracts, handled numerous vendor relations, and ensured that the company got top value for their purchases – all skills that she easily transitioned into assisting her real estate clients. Sari, her husband, and their two sons now live in Beacon Hill.

Maryann & one of her grandkids

At a recent marketing meeting with the Orlandos, the trade talk was fast and furious. From developing client’s searching parameters to a discussion of the record low inventory, you would not have gotten the impression that this was a family meeting. Each member brings their unique set of skills, knowledge and experience to the table. When asked if this was how the holiday meal conversations usually went, the answer was a resounding and unanimous, “No!”

“It would drive our spouses and other family members crazy,” said Sari. “We could talk ‘shop’ all day if we were allowed, but you have to make quality time for your family.

This dynamic family is not only a powerhouse selling force, but a huge sponsor of the Las Flores and Rancho Santa Margarita communities. The Orlandos have been contributing stories to their local community newsletters, sponsoring and hosting events for the annual summer Ledgewood Street party, Las Flores homeowners association and Las Flores Elementary School for years now. They are firmly planted in this community and it shows.

Dr. Joel Kinnamon, President of College of the Desert; John Jaramillo, Dean of the College of Applied Sciences and Business at COD, and Bob Deville, co-owner of Windermere Real Estate Southern California discuss the new 2013 Windermere Scholarships at the College of the Desert’s Foundation Office.

Windermere Real Estate Southern California is firmly positioned as the area leader in residential resale and luxury home sales. But equally as impressive is their philosophy on giving back to the communities in which they serve.

As established members of the community, Windermere Agents and Staff keep an eye on the issues and concerns that impact the local economy, not only in terms of property values, but the educational and vocational pathways that lead to the viability of home ownership for residents and visitors alike. Their knowledge in this area recently helped identify a need to support local students in higher education programs at the community college level.

And from this need, Windermere Real Estate Southern California created their College of the Desert Student Scholarship fund through their Windermere California Foundation. For the 2013-2014 school year, four qualifying students benefit from these scholarships in three categories: Business, Economics and Real Estate Development. These scholarships pay for a portion of the students’ tuition and expenses, and allow students to focus on what’s important – their education.

Since opening their first Coachella Valley office in 2001, Windermere Real Estate Southern California has contributed tens of thousands of dollars to local charities through the Windermere Foundation. Windermere agents and its employees support dozens of charities that benefit the community as a whole, whether that is through childhood and educational development or economic and social supports. And they continue to make a great impact on our community.

Windermere Real Estate SoCal is pleased to welcome Dave Grotewiel to its La Mesa office located at 8131 Allison Avenue. A Navy veteran, Dave and his family settled in San Diego over 20 years ago.

A member of the Santee Chamber of Commerce, Dave is an active member of the communities he serves, volunteering his time at a local cancer patient care center and is a longtime supporter of the Multiple Sclerosis Society.

“Dave is an enthusiastic professional who is passionate about his clients’ real estate goals. He makes an exceptional addition to our office,” said Steve Wilson, Managing Broker at Windermere SoCal’s La Mesa office.
