I grew up in the mountains of Colorado, and am very fortunate to live in the mountains of Western North Carolina. I have a passion for the outdoors, and I enjoy all of the great people in Hendersonville and the surrounding areas.

I have been married to my wife, Laurie, for 32 years. We have two wonderful twin children, Chris and Megan. Laurie is a native of Hendersonville, and we love to take advantage of her local knowledge of all the great things to do and see in Western North Carolina.

My combination of experience as an independent businessman and thorough knowledge of Western North Carolina enables me to get you the real estate results you need.

Before committing to professional real estate full time, I was an independent business owner for more than 30 years. I have also been a broker in the Chicago Commodity Pits, so I’m well versed in dealing with a wide variety of situations, as well as the ins and outs of negotiating. Whether you’re buying on a budget or want the best return on your home sale, I can help you get the terms you desire.

After moving to Hendersonville, my wife, Laurie, opened Cafe Laurie. We ran it together for five years. We enjoyed working with and meeting people every day. My most recent business was owning and operating a crane service. That work took me to every corner of Henderson County and gave me an intimate knowledge of many neighborhoods most people never see. If your home’s location is half the draw, I can help you market it to the right buyer. Or, if you’re looking for the perfect neighborhood fit, I can help you find the right spot for you.
