Business Philosophy
Double the attention to every detail
As real estate partners since 1989, we bring our clients the hands-on involvement and personal availability of two full-time agents with 62 years of experience combined. We feel privileged to work with people in relation to something that is so central to their financial well-being and quality of life. We are both committed to making sure that every client's real estate experience is a positive and rewarding one that provides control, convenience, reduced complexity, clear communication, and maximum financial return. To accomplish this, we pay attention to each and every detail, whether in preparing homes, evaluating home values, negotiating clear and favorable contracts, or marketing and promoting homes. We believe that by skillfully managing every detail, we can bring our clients the full benefit of our experience and expertise. We are intent upon delivering superlative results and becoming our clients' valued real estate advisors for life.
