Buying a Home

Service 01

Buying a Home

Whether it is your first house or your forever house, you get someone who has spent years on job sites and knows exactly what to look for.

Residential Home Buying

We start with a real conversation about what you need, what you want, and what you can comfortably afford. Then we go find it. You get honest feedback on every house we walk, including the ones I think you should pass on.

Inspection and Construction Guidance

I spent more than ten years as a construction foreman and electrician. When the inspection report comes back, I can tell you what is a real problem, what is normal for a house that age, and roughly what the repair costs.

Education and Client Coaching

I would rather teach you how to make a smart decision than just hand you paperwork to sign. You will understand every step before you take it.

Lender Connections

Getting pre approved before you shop saves you time and heartbreak. I will connect you with lenders I trust and have worked with for years.

Selling a Home

Service 02

Selling a Home

Strategic pricing, expert negotiation, and marketing built to maximize what you walk away with.

Strategic Pricing

Your price comes from what buyers are actually paying in your neighborhood right now, not from an inflated number designed to win a listing. Priced right, your house sells. Priced on ego, it sits.

Marketing and Listing Strategy

Professional photography, video, staging guidance, pricing strategy, and a launch plan that helps your home stand out and sell for top dollar. Your house gets in front of buyers the week it matters most.

Expert Negotiation

This is where money is won or lost. I advocate for your bottom line and I do not get rattled when a deal gets tense.

Market Valuations and Wealth Reviews

Understand what your property is worth today and what opportunities that value creates. Useful whether you are selling this month or just deciding what to do next.

Investing and Wealth Building

Service 03

Investing and Wealth Building

Real estate is a tool. Used well, it builds income you keep long after the deal closes.

Investment Property Acquisition

We run the numbers before you fall in love with a property. Cash flow, cap rate, what it rents for today, and what it could rent for after improvements.

1031 Exchange Guidance

Selling one investment property and buying another can defer your capital gains taxes. I will connect you with qualified intermediaries I trust and keep the timeline on track. Talk to your CPA about your specific tax situation.

ADUs, DADUs, and Value Add

A lot of Puget Sound lots can carry a second unit. I can tell you which properties have that upside and what it costs to build it.

Commercial Real Estate

We work with both residential and commercial clients. If you are starting your commercial journey or adding to a portfolio you already own, the same analysis applies: what it earns, what it costs, and what it does for you long term.

Wealth Reviews

Once a year we sit down and look at what you own, what it is worth now, and what opportunities that equity creates. No pressure to sell anything.

How we work

Four things we hold to

Most agents focus on helping you buy or sell a home. We focus on what that decision does for you over the next twenty years.

01

Build Wealth

Real estate is a tool for creating financial freedom and generational wealth. Not just a way to buy and sell houses.

02

Maximize Every Opportunity

Construction expertise, property management, and investment knowledge, pointed at getting you the best return on every decision.

03

Be a Trusted Advisor

Lifelong relationships, built by helping you make smart decisions before, during, and long after each transaction.

04

Protect. Empower. Serve.

Every conversation led with integrity and education, and a genuine interest in you reaching your goals.

We exist to help people build wealth through real estate while protecting their investments, empowering them with knowledge, and serving them with excellence.
