I began my real estate journey in 2013 with big goals—but like many first-time buyers, I made a critical mistake. My wife and I purchased a single-family home while working with a family friend realtor. We were excited, but soon after closing, we connected with experienced investors who helped us realize the property wasn’t helping us build wealth—it was holding us back.

We made the decision to sell that house and reset. In 2015, during one of the biggest weeks of our lives—welcoming our second son into the world—we closed on our first multi-family property. That was our true starting point. We lived in one unit and rented out the others, effectively eliminating most of our housing costs. That first house hack opened the door to financial freedom and reshaped how we thought about real estate forever.

Since then, I’ve helped dozens of buyers, investors, and growing families navigate the path we wish we had known from the start—buying the

right property with the right strategy. Whether you’re looking to house hack your way to financial freedom or just want to make sure your next home is a smart investment, I’m here to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
