Stephenson first purchased property in the Temecula area in 1968 and has since then been involved with careful development of the area. He is revered as a businessman, a business advocate, and a generous humanitarian. Stephenson attended the Harvard University School of Business and graduated from the University of Southern California. He founded the Rancon realty business in 1971, during Temecula’s first spurt of growth. Some of his most well-known projects include the Bear Creek Golf Course Community and the Europa Village Winery Resort. |
