Hi, I’m John!
 
Whether you are relocating to the area or ready to make that move you’ve been talking about for a while - I’m your guy!
 
Before diving into real estate, I spent several years serving in the Army, then took roles in customer service and sales, working with homeowners at family-owned small businesses. I know how important the decisions you make as a family are, including one as big as the decision to move. I’m ready to help walk you through the process.
 
Outside of real estate, I love spending my time with my wife and kids on adventures, traveling, out in the yard, or hiking.
 
Give me a call. We’ll chat about what to expect, your goals with moving, and strategies to navigate this process!

The Local Element was the best choice! As first-time buyers, we felt like we were guided through the whole process so well. We were given clear recommendations, and the process was way smoother than I could ever imagine.
