About Lawrence

Personal Background Born and raised in San Francisco, Lawrence has a true love for the city primarily because of its wonderful culture inclusiveness of all people, its beauty and serenity. Lawrence attended Lowell High School, was a member of its prestigious Shield and Scroll Honor Society, and is exceptionally involved in numerous community service activities. Lawrence has a strong knowledge of the surrounding communities from Berkeley to Palo Alto. He enjoys learning about value investing and business from Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, and Berkshire Hathaway managers. An accomplished violinist, he has played for the Oakland Youth Orchestra and enjoys entertaining friends and family. Lawrence speaks Mandarin Chinese, Cantonese, and is studying Spanish and French. Professional Philosophy Lawrence received his real estate license in 2005 and truly enjoys listing and selling homes. He likes working with people and receives great satisfaction from his clients. He strongly believes in the motto "success is getting what you want, but happiness is liking what you get". He carries this belief over to his professional career, and is always there to advise his clients. Lawrence knows very well that buying or selling a home can sometimes be an emotionally taxing experience for both sides; this is why he remains focused on the issues at hand and the immediate needs of his clients. The key to problem solving is identifying the problem, agreeing on a course of action, and effectively implementing it. This requires not only skillful negotiating techniques, but also the ability to really listen to what your clients are saying so that their needs can be accurately discerned. The satisfaction of his clients is of utmost importance to Lawrence, and this is what truly makes for a successful agency relationship.
