ADVISOR

David J. Carciere

David’s Real Estate career began as a California Certified General Appraiser with a focus on recreational and agricultural land. In 2010 he was a founding partner at First Leaf Land Acquisitions where he spent a decade brokering agricultural and vineyard land sales. During that period, he also had first-hand experience on the wine-production side with his family’s wine label, Suacci Carciere Wines, as well as on the grower side operating the Donnelly Creek Vineyard in Anderson Valley.

Understanding the intersection of the Real Estate, growing and production sides of agriculture gives David a unique perspective when both evaluating vineyard and agricultural land and, as importantly, analyzing potential investment opportunities.

David holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Industrial Engineering from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and a master’s degree in Land Economics and Real Estate from the Mays Business School at Texas A&M where he worked as a graduate assistant under research economist Dr. Charles Gilliland. He is a licensed Real Estate Broker in the state of California and is active in the California Association of Farm Managers and Rural Appraisers, as well as the Sonoma County Farm Bureau.
