Twin Cities
Since 2018

"I built this on relationships, not volume. Every client gets the same attention, whether it's a first-time buyer or a lakefront listing."

Since 2020, I've been revolutionizing Twin Cities real estate at Compass, helping first-time buyers, move-up sellers, luxury clients, and relocating families find their footing in the market. My work is built on clear communication, honest feedback, and a results-first approach. No salesy pressure, no runaround.

Nearly all my business comes from past clients and their networks. I think that says more than any pitch could. Since 2018 I've proudly called Minneapolis home, where I live with my wife, son, and three rescue dogs. This city is more than my workplace. It's my community.

Answers,
Up Front

The questions I get asked most, and what I actually think, not what I'm supposed to say.

Less than you've been told. Conventional loans go as low as 3% down, FHA as low as 3.5%, and some loan programs allow 0% down for qualified buyers. 20% down isn't required, and putting less down isn't the wrong move. Private mortgage insurance (PMI) is often far less than renting. The right answer depends on your situation, and it's one of the first things we'll figure out together.

Depends on your life, not the market. Trying to time the market rarely works. The "perfect" time to buy is usually when you have a stable income, a reason to put down roots, and enough saved for a reasonable down payment plus a buffer. Rate-wise, remember: marry the house, date the rate. You can refinance when rates drop; you can't buy at yesterday's price.

For buyers, we talk about representation and compensation up front. No surprises. For sellers, commission is negotiable and tied to the plan we build together. What I won't do is make you chase answers or find surprise fees at closing. Everything is on the table before we sign anything.

Yes, and earlier is better. Pre-approval tells us your actual budget (not your guess), makes your offers competitive, and saves you from falling in love with homes outside your range. If you don't have a lender, I can connect you with a few I trust who match different situations.

Depends on price, condition, season, and pricing strategy. Well-prepared listings in the right price range can go in days with multiple offers. Overpriced or poorly staged homes can sit for months. The strategy matters more than the market, and pricing it right the first time is the single biggest lever you have.

Me. Every call, every text, every showing, every negotiation. I keep my book intentionally lean so clients get my attention, not a handoff to an assistant. This is also why referrals are ~90% of my business. People know what they're getting, and they tell their friends.
