Buying

From starter to forever homes,
trusted help for what comes next.

As your buyer agent

I have three main jobs

  • Keep you protected. I ensure you avoid costly mistakes while protecting your interests. This means identifying transactional pitfalls, financial exposure, and property problems that I've learned to recognize through a decade of experience.

  • Advise on market conditions and property value. Combining deep market research with comparable sales analysis to give you honest assessments of what properties are actually worth and what's driving demand.

  • Guide you through the entire process. Helping you think past emotional reactions to consider practical fit and lifestyle needs. I also manage the technical complexity of offers, deposits, negotiations, and closing procedures as we navigate through these specialized systems.

Getting Grounded - Budget and Needs

  • We’ll start by defining your needs and wants, then see where they align with your budget in today’s market.

Educational Viewing - Building the Framework

  • Your chance to tour homes without pressure to buy, gathering information and building reference points.

Narrowing and Focusing

  • Once you’re confident in what works for you, we shift to targeted searching so no time is wasted.

Offering and Learning From Practice

  • We offer when it makes sense, using each as an opportunity to understand how the market responds.

Market-Ready - Confident and Capable

  • You know exactly what you want, what it’s worth, and how to act quickly when the right home appears.

Finding the right home takes time, and good decisions shouldn’t be forced. I guide you through a process that prioritizes understanding over emotion, exploring homes and neighborhoods to see how your preferences translate into real options.

This patient approach means you will make decisions with genuine confidence, knowing exactly why a property works for your life instead of getting caught up in the moment.

The Educational Approach To Buying

Most buyers walk into open houses making the same mistake: getting swept up by staging or staying completely defensive.

Both approaches miss opportunities.

This guide takes a different approach - you'll be gathering intelligence, not shopping. Instead of being influenced by the presentation, you'll analyze what's really happening and use the dynamics to your advantage.

When you understand how to flip the script, every open house becomes a tactical advantage.

I connect you with the right expert for each situation, drawing from multiple vetted professionals in every category.

Whether that's a thorough home inspector, experienced mortgage broker, sharp lawyer or a trusted contractor, you have access to specialized knowledge exactly when you need it.

Every professional in my network has been vetted through years of working together on complex deals. They understand my standards and share my commitment to protecting your interests.

This includes a network of agents who provide early access to off-market opportunities and coming soon listings before they hit the public market.

The Right People for Every Piece of the Puzzle

Real estate transactions involve challenges beyond what any single agent can handle. That's why I've built relationships with trusted professionals who excel in their specific areas.

Virtual Property Previews

See properties through my eyes before deciding if they're worth your time. Using screen capture technology, I create virtual walk-throughs of properties that you can watch on your own time.

These recordings share insights and details that listing photos don't capture, plus my assessment of how each property matches what you've told me is important.

In a complex market, deals don’t come together by accident. You need to know how to navigate a wide range of situations and align them in a way that moves the deal forward. My role is to manage those moving parts, protect your leverage, and create the conditions where your offers turn into firm agreements.

The real advantage comes from experience, recognizing short term tactical opportunities and knowing exactly when and how to act on them. Thoughtful, well-timed questions often bring hidden details to the surface. Moving quickly in those moments is often a key component to swinging the deal in your favor.

This approach maximizes your leverage while maintaining positive momentum. You get the property you want on terms that work for you.

Solving the Negotiation Puzzle
