Professional surfer and skateboarder Chance Gaul has associated with the Laguna Beach office of Coldwell Banker Realty as an affiliate agent. In response to the recent oil spill in Orange County, he has pledged to donate 5% of his commission over the next 12 months to the Pacific Marine Mammal Center. He was the world champion for downhill skateboarding.
“Chance is self-made, determined and if you check out his downhill skateboarding video, you will see that he is fearless, which in today's real estate market is extremely beneficial,” said Ric Hernandez, branch manager of the Laguna Beach office of Coldwell Banker Realty. “I have been doing my job here at Coldwell Banker for 17 years and can pretty much tell from the first meeting which agents are going to be extremely successful and at only 25 years of age, Chance is going to be one of those agents.”
Born and raised in Laguna Beach, Gaul was only 14 years old when he was responsible for navigating sponsorship contracts, maintaining/balancing his accounts and marketing himself to the surf and skate industries.
“I am incredibly proud to have been a part of the Laguna Beach community for 25 years. I was drawn to real estate because I saw it as a way I could give back to this wonderful community,” said Gaul. “Coldwell Banker has been a very prominent name in Laguna Beach, and I knew affiliating with such a reputable brokerage would create an unstoppable duo in the real estate industry. I am incredibly motivated and excited to master the industry for many years to come.”
