HUGH EDWARD TERRELL
Real Estate Broker
Real Estate Broker
Cal RE Broker License #00448899, Expires August 25, 2022
In the late 1970’s, I owned and operated Pemberton & Associates, a 22-person residential real estate brokerage located in La Jolla, CA. In the 80’s I sold Pemberton and moved into a commercial real estate with the Grubb & Ellis Company, San Diego, CA, buying and selling mobile home parks throughout the Western United States. While at Grubb & Ellis I was appointed Managing Senior Director of George Smith/Grubb & Ellis Financial Services, commercial mortgage loan brokers. I retired from George Smith/Grubb & Ellis in the mid 90’s.
I have retained my California Real Estate Broker’s license, and for Vacation Rentals By Kimberly, I head the Long Term Leases Division. I am a graduate of Westmont College in Santa Barbara, CA, graduating with a BA in Social Sciences in 1966. In 1968 I received my Master’s Degree from Indiana State University, in Behavioral Psychology, and finally, in 1976, I received my Ph.D. in Behavioral Psychology from Cal-Western University.
