As a John L. Scott broker, my mission is transactional excellence and client satisfaction. That means I work tirelessly to make your home buying or selling process as efficient, stress-free and lucrative for you as possible.

I have had a varied and wide career tied closely to real estate.  My first job was working for my families construction company at 12 years old.  I worked summers and breaks for 10 years while finishing school. I learned framing, building forms and pouring concrete, excavation, and much more. After graduating from Washington State University, I worked for over 20 years in the banking industry, focused on purchasing and securitizing mortgage backed securities.  I have underwritten countless loans and reviewed tens of thousands of appraisals.  I worked up to a Senior Vice President level at Bank of America in marketing. 

I reside here in Leavenworth with my wife of 26 years and I have 4 children that have gone through the Cascade School District. I am currently the president of the local non profit softball association here in Leavenworth. We are heavily embedded and invested in our little Bavarian community.  I cant imagine living someplace else. (Well, when I'm clearing my driveway of snow for the umpteenth time I sometimes think of living on a beach in Hawaii...)

Representation

I take pride in offering high-caliber full-service residential real estate expertise. My clients are my top priority, and I focus on delivering the best possible results for them.

Expertise

The real estate market is hyperlocal, seasonal and temperamental—in other words, it can change on a dime. Technology has made information more accessible to everyone, but it can be difficult to keep up with recent events that affect home values. The benefits of working with a licensed real estate professional go far beyond what a mobile app, online video, or website can do.

I provide my clients with information on market seasonality and information relevant to what is happening in their specific neighborhood. This customized analysis includes recent comparable sales that factor into an offer and acceptance strategy.

Negotiations

Successful negotiations help move a conversation forward and transform the process into an agreement that’s a win for all parties. Negotiation is not only a skill, but a mindset. I keep my clients’ best interests top of mind as I negotiate on their behalf. 

Transactional Excellence

I am dedicated to transactional excellence for every listing and sale. What this means for you is that I oversee every detail of the real estate transaction. The transaction is far from over once an offer has been accepted. I monitor inspections, appraisals, title, escrow and loan processes. Communication and collaboration with all the partners and parties involved with the transaction ensures a smooth and timely closing. I am committed to my clients before, during and after a sale.
