This charming ranch in Historic Hudson Bay close to Officer’s Row and downtown Vancouver went like wildfire! Over 50 showings in three days and my sellers were able to accept one of many offers in three days. While this totally illustrates what a Sellers market it is, its also worth mentioning that with good communication, straightforward offer writing and clever contingencies its still very possible to find a home to buy.

He/Him
I've lived in the Portland-Vancouver area my entire life, so I'm very familiar with its many neighborhoods—both in the heart of the city and throughout the suburbs. A few years ago, I made the move to Vancouver to be closer to my grandkids and even closer to nature. I love how easy it is to get outdoors here, whether it’s a walk through the Salmon Creek or Burnt Bridge greenways, or a stroll along Vancouver's fantastic waterfront.
After nearly 25 years of filling homes with beautiful art and design as the owner of vintage furnishings and art galleries, I transitioned my passion for finding great pieces for great people into a career in real estate. My eye for quality and attention to detail benefit both buyers and sellers alike.
Having owned and operated businesses for most of my life, I bring with me a strong background in problem-solving, collaboration, and hard work.
I always say, “Great things rarely come from a 40-hour work week.” If you're looking for a dedicated, responsive, and compassionate Northwest native to help you buy or sell, I’d love to connect. Whether you're searching for a Craftsman, a Midcentury Modern home, a new build, a fixer-upper, or an investment property—from single-family rentals to duplexes or small apartment buildings—I'm here to help you make it happen.
