Buying a home in Reno or Sparks can feel competitive, so preparation is key. I encourage buyers to get pre-approved early, define their must-haves, and act quickly when the right home appears. I also recommend leaning on my negotiation skills and contractor network to uncover hidden value and ensure the home is a sound investment. Clear communication and strategy often make the difference in winning the right property.

Pricing and presentation are everything. My partner, Robin, is an expert at analyzing the market to set the right price, while I focus on negotiation and preparing the home to stand out. We work with trusted contractors for any pre-listing improvements to maximize value. We also use strong marketing strategies, professional photos, and a tailored plan to ensure your home sells quickly and at the best possible price.

We’ve worked with a wide range of clients—first-time homebuyers, investors, families upsizing, retirees downsizing, relocation clients, and luxury home buyers and sellers. Our team approach ensures every client receives detailed attention and expertise for their specific needs.

One of my favorite recent transactions involved helping a couple relocating to Reno from out of state. We coordinated virtual tours, handled the entire process remotely, and used my trusted contractor network to make key updates before they arrived. The result? A smooth, stress-free experience where the buyers moved into a home that was truly ready for them, and they felt confident every step of the way.

I was born and raised in Reno and transitioned to real estate after a successful 28-year career as an attorney in Oregon. My background in negotiation and contracts has been invaluable in guiding clients through complex transactions. I joined forces with Robin Renwick, a seasoned Reno REALTOR®, to create a team that blends her pricing expertise with my strategic approach.

Yes. My 28 years as an attorney gave me advanced contract knowledge and negotiation experience that few REALTORS® can match. Robin’s 18+ years in real estate and her background as an educator make her an expert in pricing and client communication. Together, we offer buyers and sellers a complete set of skills to protect their interests and achieve outstanding results.
