About Me

Farmer at heart. Entrepreneur by nature. Realtor by trade.

I live on a farm in Huron County with my wife and our four kids. I am a serial entrepreneur involved in a number of different businesses, and there is nothing I love more than watching young people start something of their own and fight for it. Along the way I have sold over $100 million worth of real estate and completed more than 250 transactions.

Market Insight You Cannot Google

I talk to about 50 people a day. That is my edge.

Farmers, business owners, tradespeople, landlords and other realtors. Almost every industry, almost every day. Being that connected gives me a read on the market that no report or headline can match, because I am hearing what is actually happening on the ground before it shows up in the numbers.

How I Work

Not the typical agent, and that is the point

I market to the people who bring buyers

You will not see me promoting open houses all over my personal social media. What I do instead works better. I take your listing and market it properly across all the right channels and real estate boards so every professional agent in the region sees it. I collaborate with those agents, and I make sure they are compensated above average, so they fight above average to find the perfect buyer for your property.

I negotiate like it is my own money

When offers come in, this is where I earn my keep. Top dollar matters, but so does the right closing date, clean conditions and terms that protect you. I negotiate every piece of the deal, not just the price.

I stick around after closing

At the end of the day it is not just about the money. It is about having a good experience, staying informed and knowing everything is handled from the first conversation right through closing day. And after that, if a question comes up next month or next year, I am still your guy.

My Specialty

Investor focused. Rural raised.

Where I really shine is investment real estate. Multi family buildings, rural properties, commercial buildings and farms, plus finding the right properties for investors who flip. If you are building a portfolio in rural Southwestern Ontario, you want someone who lives in this world, not someone who visits it.
