About us
HOUSE HACKING!! By far the best way for anyone to pick up their first rental property, especially a first time homebuyer, its my favorite strategy and I love showing new investors how they can get started with a smaller downpayment, reduced risk and simpler management. This was how I began my investing journey, starting with a duplex in 2016 that has grown into a 6 figure per year portfolio. I love helping others to take the first step in reshaping the trajectory of their financial future. Give me a call and we can talk about what's the best next step for you.

Ian is a great person and real estate agent!
He is dedicated to providing an objective recommendation to his buyers so they understand if the home they’re interested in, fits their financial and personal needs.
Additionally, he is very intentional on educating the real estate market, home buying process, negotiations until closing, and any other topic that a buyer may have.
Overall, I can’t recommend Ian enough for anyone interested in buying a home in the PNW!!

Ian is utterly amazing. As a fellow realtor, It’s rare to come across someone with his unmatched talent. He was wonderful to work alongside with. Stellar communication, didn’t miss a beat and went above and beyond. The experience from start to finish was spot on and smooth, even with the bumps out of our control. Ian is someone I will look forward to working with again. He deserves recognition and is someone I would want on my side if I was looking to buy or sell. Thank you , Ian for all that you do to keep this industry a trusted and thriving one.

Ian just helped our family close on our first home and we are so grateful for his guidance during the nearly year-long home buying process! We had very particular criteria that ended up evolving along the way. This did not make Ian's job easy, but you would never know it. He was always willing and ready to meet us for another weekend of showings with a smile, awesome attitude, and a seemingly bottomless supply of patience. Ian has extensive knowledge of the industry and spent considerable time brainstorming and thinking outside the box to meet our goal of buying an investment property as our first home. You can tell he is passionate about real estate, and this shows in his attention to detail and willingness to share his wealth of knowledge.
We saw it all in our home buying journey, including suboptimal inspection results which led us to rethink/re-negotiate offers. Ian was incredible in these scenarios, negotiating on our behalf while also educating us through the process. Because of Ian’s personal experience with real estate investing and home improvement/renovations, he is adept at simplifying complex inspections into digestible terms for first time buyers. This helped us understand the potential true cost of these homes in terms of time, money and emotion and allowed us to make the well-informed decision to walk away from a couple homes that would have had issues down the road. Ian truly wants to see his clients succeed and will take the time to make sure you are comfortable and confident with your purchase.
We had a blast working with Ian and thanks to him we found the right spot for our family. He became a trusted resource and friend through the process, and we highly recommend him to anyone in the market for a home!

Our journey as first-time homeowners was nothing short of a delightful adventure, thanks to Ian, our incredible real estate professional. From the very first meeting, it was evident that his professionalism was matched only by his warmth and friendliness. What truly set this experience apart, however, was the unexpected personal connection that formed between our families.
Ian's expertise in the field was apparent through his detailed explanations, patience in answering our myriad questions, and his knack for making complex processes seem straightforward. He guided us through each step with such finesse, ensuring we felt comfortable and informed. His recommendations were always in our best interest, and his negotiation skills were remarkable, helping us secure our dream home under favorable terms.
The personal touch came when we met Bridger, Ian's son, who is around the same age as our daughter Meira, 1.5 years old. Watching them play and interact during a couple of our meetings added a layer of personal connection and joy to our home-buying process. It was these moments that transformed our professional relationship into a personal one, making the entire journey feel more like a shared family adventure.
We are profoundly grateful to Ian for his exceptional service, guidance, and the genuine care he showed our family. His ability to blend professionalism with personal warmth is truly commendable. We highly recommend him to anyone embarking on their home-buying journey, especially first-time homeowners. Thank you, Ian, for making this significant milestone in our lives not just a transaction, but a cherished memory. Keep doing what you are doing. I wish you a great success!

Ian was the best agent we could have asked for. He was so patient, showed us so many houses, was very knowledgeable about construction types and tips, and was just everything an agent should be and more. When we had buyers remorse on our first offer, he felt it and guided us how to withdraw the offer and kept showing us properties. And when it’s over, it’s not over with him. He brought us a beautiful Christmas wreath long after closing. We would be proud to have him part of our family.

Outstanding Agent!
Ian is a very intelligent Agent who makes things happen correctly, on time, and worry free! My wife and I were first time home buyers, so this whole process seemed daunting but Ian was there to pave the way and answer all of our questions. Ian is very easy to talk to and really fun to work with and very understanding. We were worried about closing on a property out-of-state and having a time difference but he made it all seem so easy. Ian is very good at communicating all the steps of the home buying process and makes it easy to get a hold of him. He answered and still answers all of our questions and gave insightful advice. We explained to him our goals with buying property, and what we wanted from our first home. He checked all the boxes and beyond with the property he helped us get into! Thank you! We will be working again soon

I recently had the pleasure of working with Ian in finding our first home. As first time buyers relocated over from Eastern Washington we really needed a trust worthy individual who knew the lay of the land and all the ins and outs of buying our first home. We are very thankful that we got introduced to Ian, he is extremely punctual and will always go above and beyond to make sure you’re taken care of.
We looked at multiple homes in multiple cities before deciding on a new construction home to be built. Ian worked with us from the beginning to the end of the construction process and helped all of our wants and needs come to fruition. I can’t thank him enough for being there for my family and getting us into our new beautiful home.
Lastly I can promise you if someone refers you to him take the time to get acquainted as I am confident in his abilities to fulfill your needs when it comes to buying or selling a home.
