Head Coach, LMU / Realtor / Global Real Estate
Real estate advice with a coach's game plan.
Raised outside Barcelona, David started coaching kids at 15 and crossed an ocean at 22 to play for Loyola Marymount, where he became an All-American and now leads the Lions as head coach. He brings that same approach to real estate: study the field, build the plan, and help every client compete with confidence, wherever in the world they are coming from.

For clients who think beyond borders
International buyers, relocating families, athletes, coaches and anyone starting a new chapter far from where they grew up. David made that move himself, from Barcelona to Los Angeles, so he knows how much a trusted guide matters when the market, the neighborhoods and the process are all new.
Raised in Spain and built in Los Angeles. David understands clients relocating from abroad, moving across the country, or investing from a distance.
Film study comes before the game. Comps, neighborhoods, financing and timing are reviewed before you ever write an offer.
Like any good coach, David tells you what he sees. If a home or a deal isn't right for your goals, you'll hear it from him first.
Authentic Partners brings property management, leasing and trusted lending partners to every client.
How David coaches
The same sequence that builds a championship team builds a confident real estate decision.
Film room: study the field before you play.
Where you stand today: budget, savings, goals, timeline, and what home means to you.
Practice: build the strategy before the whistle.
Target neighborhoods, price range, financing and a clear plan for your first or next property.
Game day: decisive, well-drilled action.
Find it, negotiate it and close it with a team that moves fast when the right one appears.
After the final buzzer: learn and reset.
Review the numbers after closing, protect your investment, and plan the next opportunity.
Where David can help
First homes and move-up homes across Los Angeles, from the Westside and the South Bay to neighborhoods close to campus, work and the coast.
Moving from another state or another country? David helps you learn the neighborhoods, the commute and the market before you land.
Single-family rentals and small multi-unit buildings, evaluated with clear numbers and a long-term view.
Luxury leasing and full-service property management through Authentic Partners, so your property performs while you focus on your season.
For existing homeowners
Championship teams don't wait for the game to start to get ready. The work happens long before the first whistle. Your finances can work the same way.
If you own a home, a home equity line of credit (HELOC) can sit open and unused on the sidelines of your finances. When the right opportunity appears, like a down payment on a rental, a property priced below market, or a chance to make a fast, strong offer, the capital is already in place.
Great teams stay patient. But championships are won by the preparation done in advance.
The best opportunities rarely arrive on schedule. You never have to force a shot.
Set up your resources before you need them, not in the middle of the play.
Ready capital is the best way to be prepared. Sellers favor buyers who can move.
A HELOC is secured by your home. Interest is generally charged only on the amount you draw, and some lines carry annual or inactivity fees. Rates, terms and eligibility vary; review the details with a licensed loan officer before you apply.
Rooted in Barcelona.At home in Los Angeles · Global by nature
David grew up in Rubí, just outside Barcelona, and played for Club Natació Sabadell before moving to Los Angeles at 22. Two countries and two cultures taught him one lasting lesson: the strongest teams are built from people who see the world differently.
That global mindset shapes how he works. He listens first, adapts to each client's background and goals, and treats your biggest purchase with the same care and preparation he brings to his own team.
