After the 2018 Woolsey Fire took the original home, Gary represented the buyer on the burned-out lot in January 2020 — a land-value entry at $542,000. Over the next fifteen months he guided a ground-up build: a brand-new 4,286 sq ft modern farmhouse with five bedrooms, six baths and a resort backyard with pool. Listed at $2,295,000 in spring 2021, it drew immediate attention and closed at $2,730,000 — $435,000 over list, in just six days on market — with Gary representing both sides of the sale.
