Randy is the Owner/Broker of Platypus Properties in Carlsbad, California.  Founded in 1996, Platypus Properties was formed to provide real estate sales and consulting services.  Born and raised in Southern California, Randy has been a resident of North San Diego County since 1976.  He has worked full time in real estate for over 30 years, through many cycles of real estate ups and downs.

Randy made his first property purchase when, at the age of 17, he put $1690 of summer savings into a family purchase.  That entitled him to 13% of the profit in a fixer, 7 unit apartment building in San Clemente.  Following graduate school, Randy used those funds to purchase a “2-on-1” in Carlsbad.

At the present time, Randy is the sole employee of Platypus Properties.  When he represents you, there are no assistants, interns, office managers, transaction coordinators, etc. that you get shuffled off to once the listing agreement or purchase contract is signed.  You get all his years of experience working directly on your purchase/sale to make sure it happens as it should.  Randy prides himself on making sure there are no surprises for his clients and the escrow closes on time.
