Discover How I Can Maximize Your Home's Value and Sell It Faster!

Discover How I Can Secure You Higher Profits, in Less Time, for Your Home!

Special Buyers I collaborate with and their specific preferences

Because of limited inventory I constantly have buyers who have not found the right home, and many are at the point of being willing to pay TOP dollar for the right home. And with the home market as crazy as it is, one would think finding the right home would be easy, but for some of these buyers it isn’t. If you are thinking of selling soon I may be able to sell it for FULL asking price as soon as you are ready to sell.

Here’s what they are currently looking for:

  • 3-4+ bedrooms, garage, spacious yard (front or back), 1800-2800+ sq ft, and kid/dog-friendly space

For the past 10 years, I've been on a mission to redefine what it means to buy or sell a home. Wondering how this journey began? It all started with a genuine love for helping people and a construction background that gave me a unique perspective on houses. I've pulled off deals that others thought were impossible because I'm dedicated to keeping your dreams alive.  

What sets me apart in the real estate world? Well, I've spent 17 years in construction, which means I know the ins and outs of homes like the back of my hand. Plus, I'm a certified Probate Real Estate Specialist, ready to navigate the trickiest of situations.   But here's the real magic: I'm a chess player in the world of real estate. I don't just see the move in front of me; I'm thinking five, ten moves ahead. It's like having a real estate wizard who can foresee potential problems and take action now to prevent them from ever surfacing.

Oh, did I mention I'm a four-time ICON Agent awardee? That puts me in the top 1% of agents nationwide based on production. I don't say this to brag, but to let you know that I'm not just in this for the ride—I'm here to excel.  

So, what makes working with me fun and enjoyable? Well, it's simple: all my clients become friends. We celebrate birthdays and anniversaries together because I want to be your realtor for life.   When I'm not helping you find your dream home, I'm a husband and the father of 3 kids, all raised here in the Lehigh Valley. The two oldest have both bought homes with me and I’m Pop Pop to 2 grandsons. I've been a Lehigh Valley resident myself for 41 years, and I love everything about the outdoors—camping, hiking, fishing, hunting. Plus, I'm an avid target archer. I guess you could say I'm always hitting the mark, whether it's in real estate or archery.   So, what's the message here? When you choose me as your trusted advisor, you're not just getting a real estate agent; you're getting a trusted advisor I will Guide, a Lead, and a Protect you the entire way.

The Top 4 "Secrets" That Get Buyers Paying More

Secret #1: Fix Problem Issues Before Your Buyer Gets An Inspection (Value: 2-4% of Sales Price)

One of the most frequent things that knock the sales price down is a bad inspection. Any smart homebuyer will have your home inspected, and if the inspection has problems, they always use those problems to negotiate down the price and you'll lose an average of as much as 2-4% of your price when they do. How do you conquer this? Simple! Get your own home inspection. Find out what an inspector says are problems then fix them first before your home goes on the market. The few dollars you'll spend in repairs far outweigh what you'll keep by not negotiating down your price.

Secret #2 Upgrade Your Home and Make It Desirable ( Value: 2-5% of Sales Price)

The second secret is upgrading your home. With the right expertise you can upgrade strategic areas in your home and make a huge impact on your sales price. This is where I, as an experienced Realtor, can make a big difference. You can spend money on upgrading some things and get no increase. But you can invest money in other things and net as much as $10,000 more in the sales price. Overall, when done right, a strategic "home upgrade" can impact sales price as much as 2-5%. For a $300,000 home that's as much as $15,000!

Secret #3 Set Your Nuyer's Mind at Ease With A Home Warranty (Value: 2% Of Sales Price)

The third secret is a home warranty. You've probably seen these already, but did you know they can impact the price of your home as much as 2%? A warranty gives your buyer peace of mind in the buying process, making it easier for them to buy your home over one without a warranty. The cost is very reasonable and can be paid for at settlement. You can also warranty yourself during the listing process. It really is a great value.

Secret #4 Stage Your Home toMake Buyers Love Your Home (Value: 6-10% of Sales Price)

And the fourth secret is expert staging. Unless you've sold a lot of homes, this one can be tricky. "Staging" is how you set up your home to show. It's everything from little repairs, to color selections, to placing the right furniture where it belongs and putting wrong furniture in storage. It's all about making your home more desirable, and a professionally staged home can usually net as much as 6-10% more in its sales price. That's as much as a $30,000 increase in the final sales price on a $300,000 home. That's impressive!

Add those together, and you can get as much as 18% more on the sale of your home ... plus your home will sell a lot quicker!
