Our Washington base is in the beautiful Pacific Northwest where the Emerald City of Seattle beckons newcomers from all around the world through it's tech, medical, and professional fields. Seattleites are often highly educated. They make astute learners when it comes to real estate. Many are interested in long term investment goals just as much as finding the perfect neighborhood and home design to fit their taste. After working long hours, they delightfully escape into the attractions offered by stunning mountain ranges, islands, and vast waterways of the Puget Sound.
Our Nevada base is in the southern region, a valley of bustling cities etched by mountain ranges - Las Vegas being the star attraction and where our office is located just near the border of Henderson. A hub of high relocation much like Seattle, this area also keeps in mind those who enjoy new construction, a second home, or to affordably retire in one of the most famous destination places in the world. It offers sophisticated outlying suburbs such as Summerlin, Green Valley, Anthem, and Lake Las Vegas - big attractions for golfers, hikers, bikers or those who enjoy thoughtfully planned communities.
Clients talk with us long after their transaction in order to learn about strategies that will save them time and money. Some take an investment strategy route, finding what we offer in that space. Many enjoy our help when they need a well-vetted resource for their home, their friend across the country needs us to find highly qualified agents on their behalf, or they wonder if their remodel choices make sense for future resale value.
There are over 2,000 programs available as of quarter one of 2024, per the Homeownership Program Index. The majority of the programs provide closing cost and down payment assistance.

Everyone knows a few real estate agents. What makes our team stand apart is education. We both graduated with degrees in education related fields which not only shows our passion in this area but our dedication to hard work, research, and handling complicated tasks. Clients often tell us they've never been so thoroughly prepared or educated by a real estate agent. Buying and selling is only the start. Strategizing to grow your wealth via real estate is another path we offer. Various clients have enjoyed the option of retiring far earlier than planned when they consulted with us first.
We are alarmed at how many buyers and sellers come to us after working with another agent having lost thousands of dollars during and after the transaction mainly due to either ignorance or negligence of their agents. Unfortunately, it's very easy to get a real estate license and most consumers are not familiar with finding a specialist. The good news is we have over twenty years worth of stories from very happy clients and many references you can speak with. Please contact us for references.
First, we set up your customized plan with your educational packet - you choose the in-person or Zoom meeting. We dig deep on your goals and lifestyle. Next, we oversee the framework and negotiations while partner agents join us in your project for complete coverage from start to finish. You benefit from having more than one agent's eyes on your process. We also greatly save buyers time by vetting areas and homes ahead. Why exhaust yourself seeing thirty homes or neighborhoods when an expert who's seen thousands can narrow it down to your top favorites?
