Business Details
Your Trusted Seattle Real Estate and Land Use Consultant
For over twenty-five years, I have dedicated my career to helping clients navigate the complexities of real estate development and property transactions. My expertise stems from a family legacy in construction, beginning with my grandfather's dirt-hauling business in the 1940s and my own hands-on experience operating heavy equipment by age twelve. I hold advanced degrees in Building Construction, Construction Management, and Real Estate from the University of Washington, where I now serve as Affiliate Faculty, and have maintained a real estate broker license since 1996. My services integrate land planning, construction knowledge, and sales experience to provide comprehensive solutions for residential and commercial projects. I have worked with individuals and investors to acquire, permit, and develop over 1,000 acres in King County and thousands more across Washington State. My clients benefit from my problem-solving skills honed through outdoor adventures like ultra-running and expedition racing, which mirror the resilience required in real estate challenges.Recognized as a four-time Top Sales Broker and recipient of the University of Washington's George Rolfe Award, I combine academic rigor with practical expertise. My commitment to client satisfaction is reflected in testimonials highlighting my responsiveness, negotiation skills, and ability to secure favorable outcomes, including closing deals on tight timelines. I specialize in vacant land transactions, zoning complexities, and development feasibility, offering services ranging from boundary line adjustments to construction permitting. My approach balances regulatory requirements with project goals, ensuring clients achieve successful outcomes from initial consultation to certificate of occupancy.
