REALTOR® · CERTIFIED CARPENTER

Free home valuation
I review every request myself — a real market estimate, not just an algorithm.
WHY SELLERS CALL ME
Most agents show your home. I also know how it’s built.
A carpenter’s eye
I can tell a cosmetic fix from a real problem and estimate what a repair should cost. You spend money only where buyers will pay it back.
A legal background
I practiced law in the UK before real estate. I read offers, disclosures and inspection requests closely, so fewer things surprise you before closing.
Local, modern marketing
Pricing built on your street, not the county average — and a launch that reaches buyers on MLS, Zillow, Google, Instagram and video.
FREE · BEFORE YOU LIST
The pre-listing walkthrough
We walk through every room together. Afterwards you get a written prep plan, sorted into three lists — so you know exactly where your money goes.
DO IT
Small fixes, big return
Paint touch-ups, lighting, door hardware, caulking, a tidy front entry. Low cost, and buyers notice.
SKIP IT
Projects that won’t pay back
Big remodels right before a sale rarely return what they cost. I’ll tell you when to leave it for the next owner.
FLAG IT
What an inspector will find
Spot issues early, so you can fix, price or disclose them on your terms — not renegotiate under pressure.
Need help with the work? I can recommend trusted contractors, coordinate them and check the result before photos.
HOW IT WORKS
Four steps, from walkthrough to closing
01
Walkthrough & price
Prep plan plus a pricing analysis based on recent sales nearby, set to land in the right buyer search ranges.
02
Prepare & stage
High-return fixes, light staging and photo-day styling. I coordinate the trades and check the work.

Launch
Professional photos, video and 3D tour, then MLS, the big portals, social, Google and open houses — all in the same week.
04
Offers to closing
I compare offers line by line, negotiate, and handle inspection requests with a builder’s eye — together with your attorney.

Questions sellers ask me
Do I need to renovate before I sell?
Usually not. Most homes need a short list of inexpensive fixes, not a remodel. The walkthrough shows you which is which.
How much should I spend getting ready?
As little as gets the job done. Every item on your prep plan comes with a rough cost and the reason it’s there, so you decide.
Is the walkthrough really free?
Yes, with no obligation to list with me. If you do, the plan becomes the first step of our launch.
What’s my home worth right now?
Send your address through the valuation form at the top of this page and I’ll prepare an estimate based on recent nearby sales.
