Bio
Dean Abston has been a real estate broker for 21 years now and he feels very fortunate to have found a career that makes him look forward to going to work every day; the first time Dean presented a young family with the keys to their new home he knew this career was for him, plus you never stop learning in this business and it is always interesting. Prior to becoming a realtor Dean worked as a Certified Real Estate Appraiser here in Southern California for eight years. Dean has appraised and estimated value for all types of property including condominiums, vacant land, income property, mixed use commercial property and ocean front property in Malibu. That experience has helped Dean to inform his clients of the true market value of the homes they are either about to sell or buy and suggest improvements to increase the value of their homes. Along with an affinity for negotiation, that background has given Dean very satisfied buyers and sellers and frankly, a leg up on competition. It has also helped Dean to consistently earn the Berkshire Hathaway prestigious “President’s Circle Top Producers” award representing the top 3% for sales production in California and nationwide for our company.
Dean is also a committed member of the Valley Glen Neighborhood Association and served as its President for three terms. In this capacity, Dean is very involved in all areas of our community. Dean fights for the concerns and needs of the families in our community to improve our quality of life. Listening to the people of the neighborhood and figuring out solutions to those concerns has been extremely satisfying to Dean.
Dean is originally from Oregon and still visits once or twice a year to get in some good fishing and snowmobiling. His hobbies include golf (more of an obsession, Dean thinks), physical fitness, skeet shooting, travel and time with family and friends. Real estate is his career and passion; the more you learn in this business, the more you realize there is to learn. Dean feels so very fortunate to have a career that is always interesting and that energizes me.
