Let's find your
dream home together.
My focus is to save you time, maximize your money and minimize your effort in the search to buy your perfect home. I make the home buying process as simple as possible for you.
Why use a real estate agent to buy or sell a home?
I am a master negotiator who protects your interests.
Sellers want the highest price and you want the best deal — the price and terms will bend towards the party with the most artful negotiation tactics. In your corner, I will level the playing field. I know which negotiation strategies will render most effective for the situation and how to tweak your angle as the situation develops with counteroffers.
Save money and increase investment potential on your home purchase.
Throughout the process you can rest assured your best interests are being represented. I can get you a better deal thereby saving you surprises and delays. I will give you context for whether the neighborhood appears to be appreciating in value or on the decline, and for any features of the house that could make it difficult to resell down the line.
Your home search is my job (so you can keep yours).
Your home search is my top priority. I will communicate and coordinate on your behalf, streamlining every phase of home buying so you don't miss the opportunity to land your dream home due to your own busy schedule. I have direct access to the MLS, the members-only database for property data where home listings first appear before syndicating to online real estate sites.
Gorgeous kitchens, clever staging, and great curb appeal could blind you.
I help you step back and look beyond poor styling to focus on the structural qualities of the home so you don’t miss out on a house with hidden potential. I will keep an eye out for foundation cracks, signs of water damage, or a dated HVAC system to help you objectively weigh related costs with your emotional attachment.
Get paperwork and process assistance.
I will guide you through all the papers and important documents. There is an abundance of paperwork involved in selling and buying a property which can become overwhelming. The amount of paperwork involved will need a hefty binder, or several, and most of the documents aren’t going to make sense to the average Joe; there will be plenty of real estate jargon that can be misinterpreted by anyone who doesn’t work in the field.

Buy or Build
The last couple years have been hard on buyers looking to make a move. While the home-buying process involves several important choices, one of the very first decisions buyers need to make is whether to shop for an existing home or build a new one.
Should you buy?
In a market of intense competition at an accelerated pace the need to have an experienced agent that can articulate value and recommend the best offer strategy is critical. I will save you time by finding the properties that best suit your requirements and more importantly deliver long term resale value. I also have a niche of finding homes before they are even listed.
Less time waiting for construction
- Construction projects will require some time to complete. If you’re in a time crunch, then buying a turnkey home can allow you to move forward quickly.
Usually cheaper
- In general, you’ll likely find it cheaper to buy an existing home. A home loan is less risky than a land loan, and typically comes with a lower down payment and better interest rate.
More options in developed areas
- In some areas, all the suitable lots have already been turned into homes. Buying an existing home can place you in the area you desire.
Should you build?
The bulk of the cost to build a home are likely tied to the following; building materials, multiple loans, new major appliances, excavation, permitting and utilities.
Total control
- If you have a dream floor plan in mind in a particular location, then building a home will give you the control you’re seeking.
Customizations
- You can make the decisions when building the home, so it will reflect your tastes accordingly.
No competing buyers
- Once you buy the land, you avoid any competition for your dream home.
Reviews & TestimonialsLook no further Jeff will ensure you get the house of your dreams. I was looking to purchase a second home and I came to Jeff with my preapproval in hand. We looked at houses for sale on two different occasions. Jeff showed up on time and with so much knowledge for each showing. We found my house it was the last on our list for the day and immediately fell In love. Jeff immediately put in a competitive offer on this well sought out house. After submitting my offer which was accepted my lender informed me that my financing fell through. I contacted Jeff and told him the bad news and was ready to walk away. He told me he knew a lender who could get the deal done. I contacted that lender and I was able to close in 30 days. I am very happy with my purchase. I am an overthinking machine but Jeff helped me stay calm and ensured I purchased the best house to suit all my needs. Jeff has become like family and I know he’s only a phone call away should I ever need any help! Thanks for everything JB!
