About us


In the last year alone, I have saved my clients over $110,000 in closing costs, and nearly $60,000 in price reductions in negotiations as an investor-friendly agent in the twin cities.  I have househacked multiple times, and I prefer to add value through renovation while I do.  I have helped clients of all ages flip, buy and hold, sell, set up section 8 rentals, BRRR, contract for deed, and many other things in real estate investing.  I love to help new investors get started, make connections, and grow their portfolios, and I have a track record of helping novice to experienced investors smash their goals!

If I had to highlight a skill from Jeff, it would be that he is a man with integrity. (Which is an uncommon trait in the Real Estate industry). Jeff helped me buy a side-by-side duplex. He was highly respectful of my calculated approach to buy a property, we saw a handful before I decided to put an offer in one. The negotiation of the deal landed better-than-expected terms and it was very well handed by Jeff. The deal closing went very smoothly. Jeff has proficient deal analysis and soft skills. In my case I could really benefit from his construction and local knowledge, which are areas where I do not have expertise. I will work with Jeff again in the future to buy another property.

Jeff was amazing to work with! He helped my husband and I find the perfect home for our growing family. He is kind, communicative and thorough. He's the type of realtor that you want to work with! He is a genuinely great person and is great at mitigating situations where there are a lot of emotions - like when you sell or buy a home! Buying a home can be stressful, but he made the process seamless, and everyone he recommended that we work with along the way was amazing as well. Jeff also sold the current home we were in! We trusted his advice and approach to the market, which ended up in the best scenario for us. Our house sold quickly, for a great and fair price and the process was, again, easy. Thank you Jeff! I highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell!

Jeff is a knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating agent. We initially decided to meet with Jeff without knowing what our game plan was, and he was more than happy to help. He showed us homes in different locations to allow us to get a feel for price points and value, without pressuring us into anything. He was more than willing to work our my work schedule and my wife's school schedule. Two days before we were leaving the country on vacation, we saw a home that we couldn't pass up. That very night, Jeff worked late to help us write and send an offer, which got accepted! He helped set up a last minute inspection the next day and we had secured an agreement by the time we boarded our plane. We got to enjoy our vacation knowing that we had just secured our first home, thanks to Jeff. His dedication to his clients is unmatched and we doubt that we would have been able to send an offer that quickly without him. 10/10 would recommend!

If you're looking for an agent that has your best interest in mind, look no further - Jeff is your guy! My wife and I started our real estate investment journey this year and Jeff has helped us close two deals on small multi-family properties. He is supportive of our goals, always a phone call away, and he makes you feel like you're the only client he has. Jeff goes above and beyond making sure you understand all the nuances, makes his network available to you, and he's very strategic in his negotiation tactics. We're two properties down and more to go with Jeff by our side! He is 100% recommended.

I've had a great experience working with Jeff to purchase two houses! He is very responsive, goes above and beyond, and takes pride in his work. He's genuine in his drive to get the best possible deal for his clients. He is great at negotiating and communicating all options to his client so they can make the most informed decisions. I've trusted him with two purchases now, and definitely will on my next!

Jeff is truly remarkable! For my second house hack, I started looking back in January 2023, and throughout the past 9-10 months, I've toured nearly 50 houses with Jeff. Never once did he decline to explore a property or express an inability to do so. Jeff epitomizes professionalism in both communication and understanding of the Real Estate Community and Market. His straightforwardness, honesty, and reliability make him a valuable asset. If you seek opinions, he readily provides guidance, making him an essential partner in shaping your individual path forward. If you are looking for a truthful, caring, and respectful agent who will make you feel like his only client, I strongly implore you to reach out to Jeff!

Jeff was absolutely incredibly to work with when my husband and I bought our first home. He is kind, clear and prompt in his communication and it is so apparent that he truly cares about the experience of his clients. We had a unique situation where we were purchasing a HUD home. This wasn’t something that Jeff had come across many times before, but you would have never known! We were closing on our house almost exactly a month from the day we first saw the house on the market. He also worked with my brother and his fiancé in purchasing their home months before us and they sing his praises as well. We HIGHLY recommend Jeff to be your guy when it comes to a realtor! You won’t be disappointed!

Jeff was an absolute joy to work with. My wife and I were first time home buyers and we could not have asked for a better realtor/home buying teacher to get us through the process. He was extremely patient. My wife and I are terrible at decisions and responding to texts. We probably made him so angry because we ghosted him for like a week or two, multiple times throughout the process. I honestly believe any other realtor would've dropped us as clients. In addition to that, we were terrible at making decisions on houses. We would schedule showings for houses that we almost definitely wouldn't buy. He would push back a bit knowing that it wasn't for us but made time to show us the house as even the bad houses were a great learning experience for us. One of the biggest things that stood out for us was his wealth of knowledge in pretty much everything. From the home buying process to home maintenance to potentially renting out the property, he knows it all. He explained the home buying process from end-to-end and answered any and all questions we had. It is clear that he was looking out for us and not just trying to get us into a house ASAP. Especially with the market volatility, there was never a doubt in our mind that everything he did or said was to set us up for long term success. Even after closing he responds to questions in an extremely timely manner and goes above and beyond to help us. We struggle to be adults most days and his guidance is invaluable. Jeff is just a genuinely good person that is excellent at his job. We recommend him to any home buyer, new or experienced.

Jeff and I met for a casual coffee discussion to chat about real estate and sourcing deals which turned into us looking at duplexes and landing our first SMF property for our portfolio within 2 months after 1.5 years of searching without much guidance for something to expand our portfolio. Jeff not only was amazingly helpful and knowledgeable about the property, the area, what it would rent for, etc. he also linked us to an inspector, plumbing company, insurance agent, property management company, and snow/lawn removal service. Truly a turnkey service to get us rent ready! If he doesn't have the answer, he most likely has a connection that does. Jeff will be the first call I make when we start our search for our next property soon.

Jeff was an absolute pleasure to work with. He went above and beyond in selling our home. His communication was superb throughout the process, and he sold our home for top dollar. Jeff is a great person, and an exceptional realtor. I highly, highly recommend Jeff!

Jeff is phenomenal! As an out of state investor, I was very nervous about getting to know a new market and feeling comfortable closing on a property from so far away. Jeff's knowledge base, attention to detail, patience, and responsiveness is unmatched. I have worked with several agents but none can hold a candle to Jeff. I would recommend Jeff to anyone looking for a new home, especially out of state investors. Thank you for everything, Jeff!
