Take the Next Step:
What the Process Looks Like
Learn more below about how I will guide you through the buyer and seller process. Whether this is your first buying experience or you’ve been through this before, I’m here to support you through every step.
The Buyer’s Process
Buying a home is one of the biggest decisions you'll make, and having someone in your corner who knows the neighborhoods, the schools, and the market makes all the difference. As a lifelong Metro Detroit resident and Saint Clair Shores police officer, I don't just sell homes here, I live here. That local knowledge means you get real answers, not guesswork.
-
We start with a no-pressure conversation about what you're looking for: budget, must-haves, timeline, and neighborhoods you're interested in. This is where I get to know you, not just your wish list.
-
Before we start touring homes, I'll connect you with trusted local lenders so you know exactly what you can afford. A pre-approval letter also makes your offer stronger when it's time to compete.
-
I'll set you up with listing alerts so you see new homes the moment they hit the market, plus my own knowledge of what's coming soon in Metro Detroit neighborhoods. We will work together as long as it takes to find your dream home.
-
We'll walk through properties together. I'll point out things you might miss: foundation concerns, roof age, what renovations would cost, and whether the price makes sense for the area.
-
Once we find the one, I'll help you build a competitive offer based on comps, market conditions, and what I know about the seller's situation whenever possible.

I'll walk you through every step to closing day, so there are no surprises when you get the keys.
The Seller’s Process
Selling your home is more than putting a sign in the yard. It's pricing strategy, marketing, negotiation, and knowing this market inside and out. With 43 homes sold and $11.7M in total sales across Metro Detroit, I bring the local knowledge and relentless dedication your sale deserves.
-
We'll start with a complimentary comparative market analysis (CMA) so you know exactly what your home is worth in today's market.
-
I'll walk your home with you and give you honest, practical advice on what's worth fixing or staging, and what isn't. Small changes often make the biggest difference in how buyers perceive value.
-
Together we'll land on a price that positions your home competitively while maximizing your return, based on real comps and current buyer demand in your neighborhood.
-
Your home will get the full work-up: professional pictures, exposure across MLS, social media, and my buyer network. The goal is getting the right buyers through the door quickly.
-
I'll manage showings, field questions, and bring you every offer with a clear breakdown of the terms, not just the price, so you can make an informed decision.
-
I negotiate on your behalf to get the best possible terms, whether that's price, closing timeline, or contingencies.
-
From inspection requests to final walkthrough, I'll be with you through every step until the keys are handed over.
