About the host
Hosted by Neven and Kirsten
I was born and raised in the Phoenix valley. I have been practicing real estate for the past 20 years here helping people buy, sell and acquire rental properties and homes. Hosting my home allows me to create a new lifestyle for my family and pursue our dream of entrepreneurship and financial independence.
My family and I try to spend the summers in Croatia and Denmark to visit family, but we enjoy visiting new places. Portugal and Spain are next on the list.
